Straight answers, no hedging.

Beyond 99x runs one core plan, GBP Growth, at R1,999 a month on a 3-month minimum term. It covers full Google Business Profile management plus an NFC review stand. A once-off R1,500 onboarding fee applies to all new setups.

Local citation building, an automated post-appointment review funnel, additional NFC stands, a basic one-page website, and management for extra locations are all available as separate add-ons. Nothing is bundled by default — you only pay for what actually fits your business.

The Map Pack is the block of three local businesses Google shows above the regular results for searches like "barbershop near me." Businesses in it get the vast majority of local clicks and calls. Ranking there depends on your Google Business Profile accuracy, review volume, and directory consistency — not on paid ads.

Most clients see measurable movement in Map Pack position within 60 to 90 days. That's how long Google's algorithm actually takes to trust newly built citations and review history — not a marketing estimate.

Google Ads is rent. Visibility stops the moment you stop paying. Local SEO through Google Business Profile optimisation, reviews, and citations is equity you keep permanently, even if you ever stop working with an agency. Most clients end up appearing organically just below the ads, at no ongoing click cost.

Yes. A website and a Google Business Profile serve different purposes. The Map Pack and "near me" searches pull almost entirely from your Business Profile, not your website, so an unoptimised profile means most local searchers never see you at all, however good your site is.

It's a small tap-to-review stand for your counter. A customer taps their phone against it and it opens straight to your Google review page — no app, no typing. That removes the main friction that stops happy customers from ever leaving a review.
