GMB I Setup For Home Service Business Will This Work?

Ok so i setup a GMB for a business i made up in the handyman service industry, no address needed or shall i say it had a hiddent address because this is a service business and no customers come to the house. I setup a domain, built a website and created the GMB to match . This is a small community of only 70k people in the whole county so not sure if this is dumb luck or what but it has been up for 5 days now and already got two calls, one from a company trying to sell me gmb management and the other from someone local who needed work done.

This GMB is ranked number 2 to 5 depending on the keywords someone searches for in this area, what I am trying to figure out is will this GMB stay up or eventually get taken down? The GMB was setup with an older google email, i have a phone for it, website, domain, and ai chat bot and booking system with calendar etc... Me and Chatgpt been working hard together for two days so do Ya think this GMB will stay up? or am i just wishful thinking. and yes i have images of work and the whole GMB filled out even have two reviews.

Those early phone calls are definitely a positive signal, but don’t take that as meaning that the listing will remain valid for a long time into the future.

The problem is going to be the eligibility and ability to verify that it’s a real business, rather than the completeness of the profile itself.

Which country are you talking about here? No one can give you a 100% accurate answer, but I’d advise you to start slowly and not rush. The results so far look good. I hope she gets back to you. Will you be providing the service yourself, or is this a pay-per-call business?

I was doing the work myself

Outsource the work, its a hassle, Trust me !

small markets like 70k pop are easier to rank in and harder for Google to verify so your setup has a decent chance of surviving longer than it would in a major city. the risks are someone reporting it as fake though.
