  1. PPC advertising for pay per click
  2. Local listings courtesy of a map pack
  3. Organic listings do to good SEO services

So this means that if you are not paying for advertising using the pay per click method such as Google Adwords, then your best opportunity of being spotted quickly is with local listings such as the map pack. pretty much for any service, you will look up on Google you will get at least three businesses that show up in the Map Pack.  these listings are large, have reviews, direct links to your website, and mobile users will have the ability to call you directly from the listing.

Because local listing shows up before organic listings your company will see a better click-through rate then if it only showed up in organic searches, this will bring in many more potential customers.
