Our story
How It Works
A clear path from invisible to dominant
Our five-phase framework has delivered consistent Map Pack and AI Overview results for industrial suppliers, contractors, manufacturers, and professional services firms across Texas.
1
Audit
Every engagement begins with a forensic audit of your Google Business Profile, citations, website local signals, competitor Map Pack positions, and AI Overview visibility. We document suppression risks, NAP inconsistencies, category gaps, and quick wins versus structural fixes. You receive a written report with a prioritized 90-day roadmap before any implementation begins. This is the same audit we offer prospects for free because strategy without diagnosis is guesswork.
2
Strategy
Mike Kaswatuka builds a market-specific plan based on how your buyers search in each Texas metro you serve. We map commercial keyword intent, estimate competitive difficulty, align GMB categories and services, and define success metrics: Map Pack rankings, review velocity, qualified lead volume, and AI citation targets. Multi-location clients receive a branch-by-branch rollout sequence that prevents listing conflict and cannibalization.
3
Foundation Build
We fix the structural layer first: profile completeness, photo and video deployment, service and product entries, citation cleanup, on-page location optimization, and schema markup. Texas B2B buyers trust what they see. Facility tours, fleet imagery, certifications, and project proof published across GMB and your website establish the entity strength that both Google Maps and AI models reward.
4
Launch
The GMB Velocity System goes live: weekly Google Posts, Q&A seeding, review acceleration workflows, and competitor monitoring. Content aligns with seasonal demand and regional terminology. DFW industrial buyers, Houston energy corridor procurement teams, and Austin tech vendors search differently. Launch creative and keyword targeting reflect those differences rather than applying a generic national playbook.
5
Grow and Defend
Local search is not set-and-forget. Competitors react, algorithms shift, and AI Overviews expand into new query types. Ongoing management strengthens your signals, expands into adjacent service areas, reports ranking and lead attribution monthly, and defends Map Pack positions you earned. Clients who stay through the compounding phase see the largest ROI because authority accumulates across reviews, citations, content, and entity corroboration.
Differentiators
Why Texas B2B companies choose TSBR
Texas-only B2B focus
We do not chase restaurants, salons, or national e-commerce brands. Every process, case study, and keyword framework is built for Texas commercial buyers with high deal values and long sales cycles. That specialization means faster diagnosis and strategies that speak the language of plant managers, estimators, and procurement officers.
GMB as the revenue engine
Google Business Profile is the highest-ROI asset for most Texas B2B companies because buyers start on Maps. We treat GMB as an engineering project, not a checklist. Photos, posts, reviews, categories, and Q&A work together as a system that moves profiles from suppressed or invisible to top-3 Map Pack dominance.
AI Overview engineering
Generative search is already shaping B2B vendor discovery. We build entity authority, structured answer content, and corroborating citations so AI models recommend your business by name. Clients appear in Google AI Overviews and other AI-powered answers while competitors still debate whether AI SEO is real.

FAQ
Common questions
How long until we see Google Map Pack movement?
Most Texas B2B clients see meaningful Map Pack movement within 30 to 60 days when they implement our full GMB Velocity System. Dominant top-3 positions across primary service areas typically arrive within 74 to 90 days. Timeline depends on your starting profile health, review velocity, citation consistency, and competitive density in your metro.
Do you optimize for Google AI Overviews and generative search?
Yes. AI Overview optimization is a core service, not an add-on. We build entity authority, structured FAQ content, schema markup, and corroborating citations so generative search models cite your business when Texas buyers ask for local recommendations. Clients in Houston and Austin have reached top-3 AI citation positions within 75 days.
What industries do you specialize in for Texas B2B?
We focus on high-value B2B verticals: industrial equipment, commercial contracting, manufacturing, civil engineering, HVAC and mechanical contractors, logistics, professional services, healthcare B2B, wholesale distribution, and multi-location service firms. If your average deal size justifies serious local search investment, we are a fit.
Do you work outside Arlington and DFW?
Absolutely. While our headquarters is in Arlington, we serve every major Texas metro including Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and statewide multi-location accounts. We study search behavior market by market because DFW buyers search differently than Houston energy corridor buyers or Austin tech procurement teams.
How do you price local SEO and GMB services?
We do not publish one-size-fits-all packages. After your free audit, Mike Kaswatuka recommends a scope based on your markets, competitive landscape, and revenue goals. Engagements are structured around measurable outcomes: Map Pack positions, qualified lead volume, review velocity, and AI citation growth. You always know what you are paying for and what success looks like before you commit.
Can you manage multiple Google Business Profile locations?
Yes. Multi-location GMB management is one of our strengths. We standardize NAP data, deploy location-specific content calendars, build review systems per branch, and prevent listing duplication or suppression. Texas companies with 3 to 50 locations use our framework to rank each service area without cannibalizing the others.
What Texas metros are most competitive for Map Pack rankings?
Dallas proper, Houston inside the loop, Austin central, and San Antonio medical/industrial corridors are the most competitive. Suburban DFW (Arlington, Irving, Grand Prairie) and Houston suburbs (Katy, The Woodlands) are slightly less dense but still require full Velocity implementation. We benchmark your specific keywords before promising timelines.
Do you help with website redesign or only SEO?
Local SEO and GMB are our core. We optimize existing websites for location pages, schema, speed, and conversion paths. If your site needs a full rebuild, we coordinate with trusted Texas developers or provide specifications your team can implement. The website must corroborate your GMB entity — thin or outdated sites limit Map Pack and AI gains.
How do AI Overviews change traditional local SEO?
AI Overviews synthesize answers from entities Google trusts. Your GMB profile, citations, reviews, and website must tell one consistent story. FAQ schema, answer-first content, and corroborating third-party mentions increase citation probability. Clients who ignore AI optimization still rank in Maps but miss the growing share of buyers who never click traditional results.
Can you help us get more Google reviews without violating policies?
Yes. We build ethical review request workflows tied to project completion, train your team on compliant language, and provide response templates. We never sell reviews, use review gating, or incentivize stars — those tactics risk suspension. Velocity targets two to four detailed reviews per week with real project context.
