Not quite right? Let's sort it

01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Pelham Brian's Google Business Listing shows a very low health score of 0.4 out of 10, indicating significant room for improvement. The listing already has a title, phone number, full address and a main image, but critical gaps remain in status, claimed ownership, website link, description and photos. Open opportunities include claiming the listing, updating status, adding a website link and richer description, and uploading more photos.

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.

Your reviews

Pelham Brian's Google Business health is very low, at 1.3 out of 10, indicating significant room for improvement in trust and engagement. The top opportunities focus on building a credible rating, establishing a first reviews, prompting happy clients, and starting to respond to reviews to show active engagement with customers.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top three opportunities

1
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.
2
Star ratingYou have no star rating yet, so a customer scanning results sees an empty space where every other business shows a number.
3
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.

Where customers find you

Pelham Brian shows an average health score of 5.2 out of 10 for social presence and local directories, indicating mixed visibility.

✓
Yelp ListingWe can see your Yelp Listing listing (https://yelp.com/pelham-brian-christchurch) 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
Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page through search rather than through anything you own.
3
Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

✓
A page address you choseThe address on your page carries your business name, so a customer told about you at a barbecue can find the page by typing what they heard.
✓
A cover photoYour page opens with a cover photo rather than a blank banner, so the first impression a visitor gets is your own work.

Top three opportunities

1
Where your page link pointsNothing in your page details points at a website, so a visitor who has read your posts and wants prices, hours or a booking form has nowhere to go next but back to search - where your competitors are waiting.
2
A phone numberNo phone number is published on your Facebook page, so someone who found you there and wants to ring has to go hunting elsewhere or send a message and wait.
3
An email addressA customer who would rather put a request in writing at ten at night has only Messenger to work with, because the page carries no email address.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Pelham Brian currently has no recorded opening hours, so temporal alignment with local demand cannot be assessed directly. Without published hours, the business misses the chance to show when it is open during Christchurch demand peaks. Adding accurate hours would reveal where opening times match high-demand windows or where closed periods miss client opportunities, improving the low health score and guiding practical changes.
