GET RECOMMENDED ยท MONTH ONE REPORT

Month one: named a little more often

A made-up report for Tolliver Lane Bakery, 123 Maple Avenue, Springfield, one block off Main Street. Every business, answer and result here is invented. It shows a month of Get Recommended: who gets named when customers ask, why, and what to fix next. Read it as if the bakery were yours.

Good news: you're now named when people ask for the best bakery near Main Street, and for pastries in Springfield.

One slip: you're not named for Saturday afternoons right now. Since you started, Facebook has gone back to your old 5 pm Saturday closing time, so that fix is first on this month's list.

Who gets named, and why

Every row is made up. A real report says where its answers came from and when, and a person on our team reads it before it's sent to you.

FacebookNow says Saturday 7 am to 5 pm. You confirmed 4 pm.

Someone who trusts Facebook could drive over at 4:30 and find the door locked.

Written for you this month

We write it. You or your web person pastes it in. Nothing changes without you.

Fix 1. Facebook hours

Set Saturday back to 7 am to 4 pm, so Facebook matches your site and the other four places.

Fix 2. A few words for your homepage

Put this near the top, and link "one block off Main Street" to your Main Street page:

"Find us one block off Main Street, at 123 Maple Avenue. We're open Sunday from 8 am to 2 pm."

Fix 3. Two local lists to pitch

To a made-up Springfield neighborhood guide (free to be listed): "Hi, I run Tolliver Lane Bakery on Maple Avenue, one block off Main Street. We make bread and pastries and serve coffee. Would you think about adding us to your bakery list? I'm happy to send our hours."

To a made-up Main Street food list (it charges a fee, so it's your call): "Hi, Tolliver Lane Bakery is one block off Main Street at 123 Maple Avenue. Could I send you our bread menu and current hours for your list?"

We never send pitches for you.

Also: a review request to hand out

"Thanks for coming in. Would you leave a few honest words on Google about the bread, the coffee or your visit? Good or bad, it helps us learn."

Next: day 60

Your part this month: fix the Facebook hours and add the homepage words.

Your day 60 count comes next, done the same way as your starting number. That's the one that decides the promise.
