01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Washington Consulting's Google Business Listing shows a solid base with a listed phone number, full address, and a main image, but the overall health is very low and needs attention to engagement factors such as a proper website link, claimed status, and a meaningful description to help customers understand services.

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

Washington Consulting's Google Business health is low, with a 1.7/10 Health Score and limited review data. Key findings show weak overall rating confidence, an unestablished star rating, few or no reviews, and no response activity to existing reviews. Addressing these areas is essential to build trust with potential clients in Christchurch.

Strengths

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

Washington Consulting shows a low health score of 2.1/10 for Google Maps search, indicating limited overall visibility. The strongest opportunities lie in continuing to improve aggregate Map results and further growing the borough presence. Top keywords indicate solid ranking for the Russley area, suggesting targeted local optimisation could yield steady gains.

Top two opportunities

    Maps visibility across the city groupYou appear in a handful of Maps searches across the suburbs around you, far fewer than most businesses here.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches less often than half your suburb, so on a search from nearby you sit below businesses a customer would otherwise treat as equal.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Washington Consulting currently has no recorded opening hours, so temporal alignment with local demand cannot be measured. Without published hours, it is not possible to point to specific periods of strong alignment or concrete missed opportunities. Adding accurate opening hours would allow identification of peak times the firm already covers and the high-demand windows when being closed would lose potential enquiries.
