The client answered the phone.
From January to May 2026, NOVA handled every touchpoint: posts, citations, review replies, photos, videos, and reporting. The client did one onboarding call. Everything after that was automated. The heatmap shows what happened.

AMR = Average Map Rank across all service area grid points. Lower is better. Top-3 = percentage of grid points where this business ranks in the Google Maps top 3 results. Data pulled from NOVA reporting dashboard. Baseline: Jan 30, 2026. Latest: May 1, 2026.
Google Maps isn't the only
place people are finding them.
For the keyword "custom shipping crates", Craters & Freighters Dallas already dominates Google Maps. NOVA's citation network and schema markup pushed them into AI engine results too. When someone asks ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Llama, or Perplexity who handles custom crating in Dallas, this client shows up.
AI citations are included in every NOVA monthly report. Most agencies don't track this at all. We do.
The same methodology.
The same results. Different markets.
NOVA runs the same 300+ touchpoint system every month regardless of the market. These are the results when the system runs without interruption.
A separate location in a separate market, running the same NOVA system. The Houston heatmap moved from 37% Top-3 coverage to nearly 70%. The client did nothing except answer the phone.
Luxury home agency. Near-zero Maps presence at the start. Their flagship keyword showed 0% Top-3 coverage. After 18 months with NOVA, they appear in the top 3 across more than a third of their Cedar Creek Lake market grid. They never logged into their Google Business Profile.
Senior care is a trust-driven, high-stakes search. Direction requests jumped 77% period-over-period. All four tracked keywords improved: "home health care," "caregiver services," "respite care," and "alzheimer home care." The client didn't touch a thing.
Commercial real estate in Austin, one of the most competitive Maps markets in Texas. AMR on their flagship keyword dropped from 14.19 to 6.22. Top-3 coverage jumped from under 3% to nearly 50% over 18 months of uninterrupted NOVA service.
We add case studies as clients give us permission to publish their data. We don't fabricate results, round up numbers, or use cherry-picked time windows. Everything on this page is pulled directly from the NOVA reporting dashboard.
These results happen
across 80+ local verticals.
Any local business that lives and dies by Google Maps is a NOVA fit. If you're in one of these categories and your competitors are showing up before you, NOVA is built for your market.
