We’re proud to support businesses right here in Raleigh and the surrounding areas. Whether you're a home service provider, a boutique storefront, or a growing wellness studio, our focus is the same: help you get found by the customers already searching for what you offer. Here are a few stories from Raleigh-area businesses we’ve partnered with, showing the real results that strategic Google Business Page management can deliver.

“Wow! I've been battling dead ends on my Google Business page since I started my business many months ago. They make it nearly impossible for a business owner to successfully appeal a suspension. My business page was suspended from the start for reasons I didn't understand and couldn't figure out. After months of trying with zero ability to speak with support at Google, I was hopeless.

Lauren knows the ins and outs of Google Business beyond what I could have imagined. And I'm generally very tech savvy and self sufficient. She was able to work her magic and get my business page unsuspended and verified in just a few days. I wish I had heard about Rank Rise Studio months ago. She's the real deal. I'd trust her with anything Google Business.”

“THANKS Lauren! Thank you for your expertise with Google Management!! My google ranking has increased significantly to which my clients say they found me from Google. I appreciate your quick response and efficiency. I have already referred others about your services. Highly recommend. :-)”

— Christina Smith Kadija

“Lauren has been a godsend for our company. We are so thankful that we found Lauren at a time when our volume of incoming calls were extremely low, almost non-existent. Our Google ads support consultant couldn't help us find the problem, for over a year. Lauren was able to correct our marketing conduit to ideal target market and call volume.

She has been very attentive and proactive, we couldn’t be more happy. Lauren has been exceptional in lead generation for our field of service.

We highly recommend Lauren for all your business ranking needs.”

— Dirk & Lisa Newham

  • I track all of my inquiries and out of the 20 new in January, I've gotten 11 inquiries and 6 new clients book me this month alone all from finding me "through a Google search"... which, I promise, no one has ever said and I've been in business 3 years. So I can say it's all from you! Thank you so much. -Salon Owner

  • Two people smiling and talking in an industrial setting with equipment in the background, wearing black vests with "On Point" logos, indicating a professional environment related to rigging and staging.

    We've tripled our event building business each year since we started. Even through the pandemic. A huge part of that has been our stage rental business and the impact of your help on Google Business to launch that effectively.

  • I heard about Lauren through others in my industry and they weren't wrong. You hire a Google Business Manager and gain a fast friend. She works so hard for you to grow and is amazing at what she does. In a short 8 weeks she's has me move up from number 17 three pages deep to front page and number 4. She offers so much more than that though. She's got great business advice and is always pushing you to be your best and help in any way she can. And a bad or good day confidant. Lauren's also a fan of the office so she gets my jokes! I'm looking forward to our future progress and accomplishments together! -Waxing Salon

  • This year I made 110k. First 6 months of working I made 11k. After that is when I started working with you. Thank you Lauren. -Barber

I got my first seller lead today & I have a listing appointment this week. Lauren is super easy to work with, friendly & knowledgeable, and is an invaluable part of my team now. I will continue to work with her going forward. Reach out to her, you'll be glad you did!

  • Lauren is the best!!! Beyond thankful for her help with getting my business a bigger Google presence!! I literally couldn’t have done it without her! - Brow Salon Owner

  • Thank you for helping me grow my small business. Were we not relocating we would be continuing our relationship. Lauren is phenomenal at helping you understand how to grow your business through Google. She helped create a strategy for reviews and content. As an owner operator, I feel overwhelmed at times with everything I have to keep up with and that’s where Lauren comes in. We created a shared folder through Google, I added photos, I asked for reviews and provided updates. Lauren handled everything else. Posts were made in a timely manner, reviews were followed up and growth happened organically. It didn’t stop there. Lauren would refer people to me on FB communities whenever the opportunity arose. She is patient, knowledgeable and will continue to research a question if she doesn’t have the answer. Lauren has colleagues that can help grow social media as well. It takes the headache out of social platforms and allows you to focus on your craft. The value far exceeds the cost! -Event decorating

  • I have moments almost daily still in shock and gratitude at the life I live now. The life I earned because of you helping me how you did. If you didn't help me I would have shut down. I owe you more than I know how to pay. You changed my life. When I met you I was doing 10 haircuts a week if that, this year I'm on track to clear 100-115 depending on how busy season goes. -Barber

    Thrilled with the results. Five stars
