• Own your local "NAP": Make sure your Name, Address, and Phone number are exactly the same everywhere—your site, Facebook, and Google. Even tiny differences can mess with your ranking.
• Location-specific pages: Instead of just one big service page, build small pages for the specific towns you work in. Mentioning local neighborhoods helps Google connect you to those areas.
• Keep your Google profile active: Don't just set it and forget it. Post a photo of a finished job or a quick tip once a week. It shows Google you’re actually open for business.

For the Google Workspace, we too took a while to get it off the ground. I ended up paying the 20.00 for Chat GPT for a few months and it helped me build the drive, calendars, templates, etc. to how we needed it. The AI walked me through how to connect QuickBooks Online, Google Drive, Drop Box, Monday.com and the other software's that we use for production. I would suggest if you try it, create projects in Chat GPT for each item. For example to set up your linked calendars create that as a project. When you like it tell it to save it to memory. If not it creates a huge thread that i have broken multiple times lol. Best of luck.

Here is the kitchen redo :
Trade / Type of Job
Kitchen renovation and interior redesign for a rental property in Dublin. The project involved updating the layout, installing new cabinetry, refreshing finishes, and styling the space to create a modern, durable kitchen suitable for long-term tenants while maintaining a refined aesthetic. The work was managed end-to-end by Cairenn Foy Interiors, coordinating trusted local trades, suppliers, and installation.

How Long the Project Took
Approximately 4 weeks from demolition to final styling, including removal of the existing kitchen, installation of cabinetry and worktops, electrical and plumbing updates, tiling, and finishing touches.

Biggest “Whoa” Moment in the Process
The biggest “whoa” moment came once the cabinetry and lighting were installed. What had been a dated, cramped kitchen suddenly felt bright, spacious, and cohesive. The new layout maximised storage while creating a clean, contemporary look transforming the kitchen into a space that immediately elevated the entire rental property.

Yes, I hear you on that! It's one thing for a customer to say "I'd love to help in anyway" or "I'd be happy to write a review or recommendation" and then for them to actually do it.

Did you find the CompanyCam review tool to be easy to use and deploy during your trial? Even if it didn't necessarily materialize with customer action?

You can even go back and edit the checklist after you make it and turn that function off. In my setup, it is on by default, and I forget to turn it off frequently. Your staff would typically not have access to do that unless you grant them permission.
