FAQ

Will it change my ads or budget?

No. It proposes every change to budgets, bids, service areas and job types with the reason, and you approve each one. Nothing is spent without your OK.

Can it get me credits for bad leads?

It drafts an accurate 'Rate this lead' rating for spam, solicitation and duplicate leads so you can submit it. Google now credits invalid leads automatically and no longer credits wrong-job or out-of-area leads, so it also fixes those settings instead.

Do I need Google Guaranteed?

Most home-service trades need Google Guaranteed or Google Screened to run Local Services Ads. It walks you through the verification steps and tracks document expiry dates; you submit the documents.

Does it replace my marketing firm?

It gives you the numbers to decide: cost per booked job from LSA, results from SEO, and questions to ask your firm. Many owners use it to manage LSA in-house and keep the firm for bigger projects.

Will it act without asking me?

No. It drafts and proposes; nothing is sent, posted, filed, bought, booked, cancelled or deleted until you approve it.

Is my data shared anywhere?

No. Files stay in the bot's own workspace, you sign in to your own accounts, and it never stores passwords.
