01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

VN Productions NZ shows a low to moderate health score on Google Business Listing, with several key updates completed. The listing has a claimed status, a visible title, a phone number and a full address, but gaps remain in photos, main image, logo and a website link. Strengths include verified control and accurate contact details.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    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.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    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.
  • 2
    Main imageYour listing has no main image, so the first picture a customer sees is whichever one Google chose for you.
  • 3
    Photos on the listingYou have no photos on your listing, or close to none, so a customer scrolling past sees a blank where every other business shows their work.

Your reviews

VN Productions NZ shows a very low Google Business health score with limited reviews and no response history. The key finding is the absence of on-going engagement and a lack of customer feedback, which may deter new clients. The business should focus on collecting positive reviews, encouraging feedback, and starting to respond to existing reviews.

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 you show up on the map

VN Productions NZ shows a very low overall health for Maps Search Performance, scoring 0.6 out of 10. This indicates limited visibility in Google Maps searches and opportunities to improve. The best-ranked keywords show decent presence for "photographer in wigram" and "photography service in wigram" at position 11, suggesting focus areas for growth.

Where customers find you

VN Productions NZ shows an overall health score of 4.2 out of 10, indicating below-average presence across social channels and local directories. The business has a strong Facebook presence with a very high trust score, which is a solid foundation to build on. Two key findings are the solid Facebook trust and notable gaps on TikTok and LinkedIn that limit reach beyond existing followers.

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.

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 could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 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.

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 phone numberA phone number shows on your page, so the person who found you on Facebook before they found your website can ring straight from it.
  • ✓
    A street addressA street address sits in your page details, so someone deciding between you and a business two suburbs over can see which of you is closer.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Recommendations on your pageNo recommendations sit on your page, so a stranger who came to see whether anyone else has used you leaves with only your own posts to go on.
  • 2
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than follow half the pages here.
  • 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.

Your hours against demand

VN Productions NZ has strong alignment with local demand during weekday daytime, especially Monday late morning to early afternoon and Wednesday midday. There are missed evening and early-weekend windows - notably Tuesday and Wednesday nights, Saturday 9pm and Sunday 8am - and several low-demand open hours (early Monday, early Thursday, Sunday morning, Friday afternoon/evening) that could be trimmed for efficiency.
