Google Business Profile
Google Business Profile Management for Costa Rica Businesses
Savage Marketing Costa Rica sets up, optimises and runs your Google Business Profile so you show in the map results when buyers search for your service, and we automate the reviews that decide who they pick. It's part of Lead Flow Foundation at ₡245,000 + IVA a month.
Who it's for
Local businesses in Costa Rica, from Uvita and Dominical to San José, whose buyers search “near me” or “[service] Costa Rica” and choose from the three businesses in Google's map pack. If your profile has few recent reviews, old photos or no booking link, you lose those buyers to the business next door.
What's included
- Full profile setup and verification help: categories, services, hours, service area, photos, booking link.
- Regular posts and updates so the profile stays active.
- Automated review requests after every completed job.
- AI review replies: every review gets a fast, personal public reply.
- Q&A seeding with the questions expat buyers actually ask.
- Matching listings on Apple Business Connect, Bing Places and Facebook.
- Monthly ranking check for your main searches.
How it works
- Fit call (15 minutes).
- Audit. We compare your profile with the businesses ranking above you.
- Fix and launch (7 days). Profile, listings and review engine go live.
- Monthly upkeep. Posts, photos, replies and new reviews every month.
Why reviews decide it
An expat buyer can't ask a neighbour who to trust, so they read reviews. Reviews are one of the Five Trust Pillars (First Impressions · Website & Messaging · Social Proof · Speed & Follow-Up · Visibility) we score in the free Digital Trust Score. Trinity Motors in Uvita shows over a hundred verifiable Google reviews next to its purchase protection pledge, and that's what a real answer to “will I get scammed?” looks like.

Proof
Trinity Motors, Uvita. A used-vehicle dealer selling to expats. After the rebrand, new website and a Google and Meta ad system, Trinity had multiple record sales months, and the ads became its best lead source. When ads were paused for two months as a test, lead volume dropped, and it came back when they restarted. Read the Trinity Motors case study.

It depends on your category and competition. Most gains come from a complete profile, steady new reviews and consistent listings, which we start in week one.
Do you manage Google Mi Negocio in Spanish?
Yes. Google Mi Negocio is the Spanish name for Google Business Profile, and we manage profiles in English and Spanish.
Do you put my street address on the profile?
