How we got Kool Beanz found.

Hospitality franchises live or die on the local pack. A diner who searches ‘best brunch [suburb]’ chooses a venue inside 90 seconds, and the franchise group that dominates those moments wins. The brand-level work is necessary but it’s the per-venue execution that pays the bills.

We built per-venue GBP optimisation, suburb landing pages tied to each catchment, and a review velocity program automated against POS-completed transactions. Every new venue inherits the playbook on day one.

Total search visibility across the group is up nearly 5×. Top-3 keyword positions improved in every catchment. New venue launches now bake search-led demand into the unit economics.

Results, verified.
