01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Lee's Barber Shop shows very low overall health on Google Business Listing at 0.2/10, indicating major gaps in essential fields. The strongest visible assets are a proper open-for-business status, a listed title, a complete address, and a main image. The key limitation is the absence of a website link, claimed status, phone number, a meaningful description, and photos beyond the main image.

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.
  • ✓
    AddressYour listing carries an address, so the directions button works and Google can match you to searches for your suburb.

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
    PhoneYour listing has no phone number, so the call button a customer expects to tap is not there and the ones in a hurry ring someone else.

Your reviews

Lee's Barber Shop shows a low overall health score of 2.0 out of 10, indicating limited Google review strength. The top findings are that the business has started collecting reviews and has a solid first review base, but there is no owner response to reviews yet. Building a response habit and increasing review count will improve perceived trust while continuing to improve rating levels.

Strengths

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.
  • 2
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.
  • 3
    Star ratingYour rating sits well below what customers here are used to seeing, and it is the first number they compare when two businesses look otherwise equal.

Where customers find you

Lee's Barber Shop shows a low health score of 2.5 out of 10 for social and directory presence, with Facebook profile already strong and Fresha listed. The key finding is the strong Facebook reach but limited presence on Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn, creating a gap in local visibility and professional branding.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.
  • ✓
    Yelp ListingWe can see your Yelp Listing listing (https://yelp.com/lees-barber-shop-bountiful) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe found your Tiktok Profile page through search alone, with nothing on your own website or your Google listing pointing at it.
  • 3
    Yellow ProfileWe could not find an active Yellow Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Lee's Barber Shop partly matches local demand but has gaps around lunchtime peaks. Most open hours hit busy windows-notably Tuesday and Wednesday late mornings and Saturday 11am-but the shop closes during several strong Saturday and Monday midday peaks. No open hours fall in low-demand periods, so modest adjustments around Saturday 12-2pm and Monday 11am-12pm could capture missed trade without adding inefficient hours.
