If you're a contractor and you're not posting on your Google Business profile regularly, you're leaving work on the table. Plain and simple.
Posting once a week takes just a few minutes, and it tells Google you're active. That means more visibility in local search results, and more calls coming your way.
Here’s what you should be posting each week to keep your profile fresh and working for you.
Week 1: Show Off a Recent Project
Clients love seeing real work. Whether it’s a bathroom remodel, a new deck, or a fresh coat of paint, post a photo and write a quick caption:
“Just wrapped up this [project type] in [neighborhood/city]! Always satisfying to see it come together.”
Pro Tip:
Use Dave to organize your jobsite photos by project. That way, you’ve always got clean before-and-afters ready to go.
Week 2: Share a Tip or FAQ
Not every post has to be about a job. Educate a little. Share a tip that clients ask about often:
“Wondering how to prep your home before a paint job? Here’s our 3-step checklist to make sure everything goes smooth.”
This builds trust and shows you're a pro—not just a guy with a truck.
Week 3: Promote a Seasonal Service
Use your posts to remind people about what’s timely.
“Summer’s here—time to reseal that deck before the sun wrecks it. We’ve got a few spots left this month. Call us!”
Even if they’re not ready today, people remember the contractor who keeps showing up.
Week 4: Ask for Reviews (With a Photo)
Pair a glowing review with a job photo. It reinforces your reputation and shows potential clients you’re the real deal.
“Another happy homeowner in [city]! Thanks to [Client First Name] for the kind words.”
Or, use Dave to send a photo-based review request and turn that post into a real review.
