Flower shops · Google Business Profile

The profile is the shop for a customer who will never walk in.

For a florist the Google Business Profile does the work a shop window used to do: photographs of what is on the bench now, the hours on Valentine's Day, the order button and the reviews naming a funeral delivered on time. GullySales keeps that profile current and answers every review on it.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What Google Business Profile means

A Google Business Profile is the free listing that shows your address, hours, photos and reviews when someone searches for your business or a nearby competitor on Google and Maps. GullySales sets it up correctly, keeps it updated and posts to it regularly so it works as a steady source of calls and direction requests.

For flower shops

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “Photographs go stale faster here than in any other shop”

    Gerberas in July and marigold at Dussehra are not the same shop. A profile still showing last December's arrangements tells a buyer you are either shut or careless.

  • “The hours that matter are four days of the year”

    Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Dussehra and the morning before a big wedding date. Special hours set on the profile for those days stop a buyer at six in the morning walking to the shop that said it was open.

  • “The order button decides whether you get a call at all”

    A same-day buyer wants to place the order, not be told to ring the shop. An order link pointing at a page that states the delivery area and the cut-off takes the order while the buyer is still in the lift.

What we do

What we deliver for flower shops.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. Photographs refreshed as the stock turns

    Real pictures of what is on the bench, replaced as the shop moves from wedding season to festival flowers to the sympathy stand.

    Result: A buyer sees the shop as it is today, not last winter.

  2. Special hours set ahead of every peak date

    Opening and closing times entered on the profile before Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Rakhi and the local festival dates, including the early start.

    Result: Nobody reads closed on the one morning you open at five.

  3. An order link with a delivery-area page behind it

    The order button pointed at a page stating the areas you deliver to and the cut-off time for same-day, rather than at the homepage.

    Result: The order gets placed instead of a call asking if you deliver.

  4. Products listed the way people ask for them

    Funeral wreaths, anniversary bouquets, mandap work and standing office arrangements entered as separate products, each with a photograph and a price band.

    Result: A buyer finds the exact arrangement on the listing itself.

  5. Replies written for every review, sympathy ones included

    A short, plain reply to each review, worded with care where the customer mentions a funeral or a hospital delivery.

    Result: The next reader sees a shop that answers, and answers properly.

  6. Questions answered on the listing before they are asked

    Delivery area, cut-off time, hospital and crematorium delivery and whether cash on delivery works, posted as answered questions on the profile.

    Result: The question that would have been a phone call is already there.

How the result is measured

  • Profile views
  • Calls from the listing
  • Direction requests

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What the profile needs

What a florist's profile needs to be accepted as a shop, or as a delivery service, and to convert.

A shopfront or a service area, said honestly
If customers can walk in, show the shop address. If you only deliver from home, set a service area and hide the address. Check Google's current guidelines for which applies to you.
Florist as the primary category
Set florist first. Add a second category only where it is real, such as a wedding service. Check Google's current list instead of copying a competitor's categories.
The name on your board
Use the shop name as painted on the signboard. Adding words like online delivery or best florist is often refused. The delivery areas belong in the description and service area.
Photographs you took yourself
Shoot the shopfront from the road, the bench and the cold room, and arrangements as they left the shop. Pictures downloaded from other sites are easy to spot and cost trust.
Delivery localities by name
List the areas you actually reach, by the names people use, and drop any you cannot cover on a festival morning. A far locality you reach late invites a bad review.
The phone number someone answers at the bench
Put the number that is picked up during order hours. If the owner is out on a delivery round, forward it to a WhatsApp Business number a second person watches.

Who it is for

This is written for these flower shops.

  • Neighbourhood flower shops
  • Wedding and event florists
  • Corporate and hotel flower suppliers
  • Online flower delivery services
  • Florists specialising in funeral and sympathy arrangements
  • Florists inside malls and commercial complexes

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your shop name on the board differs from the name you list, and the mismatch needs fixing before any profile work begins.
  • No one answers the number on the listing at the bench, so calls from the map would go missed.
  • You run a home studio and do not want visitors, where a service-area profile is the only suitable form.

How it works

How the google business profile work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Find every profile that exists

    We search your name, old names, phone numbers and addresses for profiles you own, ones someone else created and duplicates. A record notes which Google account holds each.

  2. 2

    Settle ownership and verification

    If you cannot log in, we start the ownership request. You or a senior person at the premises does the verification. Google may ask for a phone code, a live video call or a recording of the signboard and who manages the place.

  3. 3

    Match the profile to the signboard

    Name, address, pin, phone, hours and business types are compared with what a customer sees at the door. Wrong details are corrected on the profile, and a wrong signboard is raised with you.

  4. 4

    Fill, reply and watch

    Photos and services come from material each branch sends. Reviews get drafted replies, and a duplicate or a policy notice is dealt with when it appears.

  5. 5

    Read the profile against the baseline

    Calls, direction requests and website clicks are set beside the baseline recorded before work started. A branch that falls behind is checked first for a changed detail or a lost verification.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should we show prices on the profile?
Show a band on the arrangements you can honestly hold, such as a hand-tied bouquet from a stated price. A listing with no price at all sends the careful buyer to the florist who showed one.
Someone left a one-star review about a late Valentine's delivery. What do we do?
Reply in public, say what went wrong and what you did about it. Then ask the customers whose flowers did arrive that morning for a review, so one bad day is not the newest thing on the listing.
I run the shop from home and take no walk-ins. Can I hide my address?
Often yes, as a service-area business, if customers never come to that address. Then list the areas you deliver to instead. If buyers do collect from your home, the rules differ. Check Google's current guidelines before you apply, and never use a false shop address.
We opened a second shop in another area. New profile or the same one?
Each shop that customers can visit gets its own profile, with its own address, hours and phone. Do not list one shop under two names or add a second address to the first profile. Check Google's current guidelines for multiple locations before you apply.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
