Most profiles don't fail because of a big mistake — they fade because nobody touches them for months. This routine fits into a busy week.

Weekly (10 minutes)
- Publish one Google post with a real photo (120 ideas).

- Ask every customer for a review (QR at counter, WhatsApp link after service).

Monthly (15 minutes)

Frequently asked questions
Is posting once a week enough?
Yes for most small businesses. More is fine if you have genuinely new things to share.
What if I miss a week?
Just continue. Consistency over months matters more than any single week.
