01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Brian Trevathan Insurance Services shows a very low overall health on Google Business Listing, with a need to improve its profile completeness. The listing already has a title, phone number, full address and a main image, but key gaps remain that limit discoverability and trust for local customers.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.
  • ✓
    PhoneYour listing carries a phone number, so the call button is live for anyone who finds you on a phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    ClaimedYour listing is not claimed, which means anyone can suggest an edit to it and you have no way to reply to a review or correct what is shown.
  • 2
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 3
    Description lengthThere is no real description on your listing, so when someone finds you on Google there is nothing in your own words telling them what you do.

    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together put you at the bottom of this market - either the rating is low, or there are too few reviews behind it for anyone to trust it.

Where you show up on the map

The overall health score for Brian Trevathan Insurance Services on Maps Search is 3.6 out of 10, indicating below average visibility. The top findings show a starting point in broader maps queries and limited local presence in the borough, with room to grow in suburb-specific results and rankings.

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across fewer of the surrounding suburbs than half the businesses here, so someone two suburbs over searching for your service is shown your competitors and never sees your name.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches, but below most businesses in your suburb, so a customer looking from a nearby street is shown someone else first.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Brian Trevathan Insurance Services has no published opening hours, so exact alignment with local demand cannot be mapped. City-level demand concentrates in weekday business hours, so published hours will reveal whether current coverage hits peak search times or misses key windows. Adding hours will allow a clear assessment of open-peak alignment, closed-peak gaps and any hours open during low-demand periods.
