How it works

Six things you'd never get round to. One tool that just does them.

Local Hero handles the repetitive local-SEO work in the background, so your Google Business Profile actually pulls its weight. Scroll through the six.

The six

In your voice. On a timer. None of it on your Tuesday afternoon.

Step 01
Reviews

Ask every customer for a review, automatically.

The moment a job's marked done, Local Hero texts the customer 4 hours later — when they're home with a cup of tea, not when the radiator's still being bled.

  • SMS-first (people read texts; emails sit unread)
  • Hiberno-English by default, British English on UK accounts
  • One follow-up nudge if they forget, then we stop
  • Capped at 30 a month so we don't tire your customer book
Step 02
Replies

Drafts a reply in your voice. You approve in one tap.

Local Hero reads how you actually write — your past replies, your sign-offs, the way you say cheers — and drafts new ones that sound like you, not like a chatbot. Five-stars get a friendly thank-you. Two-stars get an owner-signed apology and an offline route. One-stars are template-only and never auto-post.

  • One tap to approve and post
  • 1- and 2-star reviews never auto-post, ever
  • Edit before sending if anything's off
Step 03
Posts

Posts to your Google Business Profile every week.

Two or three posts a week — offers, opening hours, fresh photos. Calibrated to Irish bank holidays and UK weather, so your profile reads like a real shop, not a copy-paste robot.

  • Mon / Wed / Fri default cadence — change it any time
  • One short prompt a week, reply by text or skip
  • Fresh GBP posts visibly lift local ranking
Step 04
Hyperlocal rank

Tells you where you rank in your town. In English.

Every Sunday night Local Hero runs a 5x5 grid around your address for your top 10 keywords. Monday morning, you get a one-page PDF: green pins where you're ranking, amber where you nearly are, red where you're not.

  • Top 10 keywords × your town, every week
  • Mon 6am email, one page, no 40-page report no one reads
  • "Up 3 for 'plumber Naas' this week" — that's the energy
Step 05
Citations

Watches the directories that quietly cost you rank.

Your name, address, and phone number on GoldenPages, YourLocal, Yelp, Foursquare, Apple Maps, Bing — checked every Tuesday. When one drifts, Local Hero sends you a one-click fix template. NAP stays consistent. Google notices.

  • Six directories monitored weekly
  • Email alert with the fix template the moment one drifts
  • One-click fix for the big three (Google, Apple, Bing)
Step 06
Photo Pulse

Reminds you to upload two photos a week. Drafts the caption.

One nudge a week. You snap one photo of this week's best job; Local Hero drafts the alt text and queues it for one-tap upload to your Google Business Profile. Profiles with fresh photos rank higher locally — a few minutes of yours, every Friday.

  • Friday-only — one nudge a week, never more
  • AI-drafted alt text and caption, owner-edits before posting
  • Photos go to your gallery and as a GBP post

Six things, working in the background, while you do the job you actually do.
