The situation
An established retailer operating since 1978 with almost no organic visibility on the terms actually driving their market.
What we did
On-page rewrites across core service pages, schema deployment, local-intent optimization on the homepage and service pages, plus 16 URLs pushed to Google's Indexing API and 15 to Bing to force re-crawl rather than waiting months for Google to notice.
