On the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast, John Jantsch argues that Google Business Profile has evolved from a simple directory listing into a publishing platform critical for local SEO, AI overviews, and zero‑click searches. He prescribes concrete weekly and monthly actions—regular posts, photos with captions, FAQs, structured content, and responsive review management—to boost freshness, E‑E‑A‑T signals, and visibility. The shift means local businesses that treat their profile as a mini‑website can gain trust, higher placement in AI and search results, and improved conversions, while those that neglect it risk losing discoverability and traffic to Google’s ecosystem.
