The Local Reporting Skill: Monthly Reports in 8 Minutes
Monthly reporting takes 2 hours per client. You pull GBP Insights, pull the geogrid comparison, check review metrics, write what changed and why, translate it into language that doesn’t make the client’s eyes glaze over, and format it into something professional.
Then you do it for the next client. And the next. It’s eight hours of your month that aren’t strategy or growth.
What Changes With the Local Reporting Skill
One prompt per client. Data pulled. Metrics compared month-over-month. Narrative written in business language. Next-month priorities generated.
A client-ready report in the time it used to take just to pull the data.
