This is like planting digital signposts across the city, making it easier for customers to find the nearest location to them. The more visible you are, the more likely customers are to walk through your door. ### **Step 6: Managing Reviews and Messages** Lastly, but certainly not least, keep an eye on reviews and messages from customers.
