1. Contact page
The website has a Contact Us page with the full name of our business, address, and phone number that you can use to contact us. Google Maps is embedded on the contact page, with the address of our website.
2. Phone number and call to action
The website page shows the clickable phone number of our business on the first screen. Each landing page on the first screen of the site has a call to action and a button to take a targeted action (application, call, request for demo).
4. Up-to-date and comprehensive contact information
The website and GMB provide the same address, name, and phone number. Our company name, address, and phone number are identical on all pages of the site.
If we have a few branches (up to 5), all of them should be added to the footer (address and phone)
If we have more than 5 branches, we have to add a separate page or a screen for selecting a branch.

6. Feedback
We use customer feedback to make the landing pages by cities and branches unique. We use customer feedback on pages of services and products they have used. We created a link to Google Reviews and ask our customers to leave feedback about our company (for example, in an email or text message after the service is rendered).
We take every opportunity to get feedback from customers
