What’s the live AI check at the top?
It runs your business through the largest AI models and shows you whether each one mentions you when a homebuyer asks for the best mortgage broker in your city. Free, takes about ten seconds, no card. The same fanout we use internally for paying clients.
What’s in the free audit, and when does it land?
Within 48 hours we email you a fully custom audit from Robert and Spencer: 2–3 priority moves ranked by impact, the AI visibility recap, and the exact next steps for your business. Hand-written, not AI-generated. We include a 15-minute call invitation in the email if you want to talk it through. No card required.
How long until I see ranking improvements?
Most brokers see meaningful movement in 60–90 days. Google Business Profile is a compounding system. The longer we work on it, the harder it is for competitors to catch up. We don’t promise specific rank positions because anyone who does is either lying or breaking Google’s terms.
What happens after I sign up for Pro?
A 15-minute call within 24 hours. We confirm fit, walk through the plan for your profile, and email a Square card-on-file link at $279 CAD per month. The first charge happens after the call, never before. Once payment’s in, you accept us as a manager on your Google Business Profile, confirm your name/address/phone once, and pick a review-response preference. Posts, photos, review responses, monthly reports start the same week. Charges may show as “The Lead Gents” or “WavePoint Web Design” on your statement (one Canadian company, two operating names).
Do I need to give you access to my Google account?
You add us as a manager on your Google Business Profile. We never need your Google password or personal account access. You can remove us in one click at any time. Your profile, your ownership, always.
Am I allowed to pay for this under FSRA rules?
Yes. The Lead Gents is a marketing service, not a referral arrangement. You’re paying for work done on your Google Business Profile, the same category as paying a web designer or a photographer. You are not paying for leads, referrals, or client introductions, which is where FSRA compliance issues arise.
What happens if I cancel?
Your profile stays yours, with every review, photo, and post we’ve added. We remove ourselves as a manager, send you a final report, and that’s it. No clawback, no lockout, no data held hostage.
How is this different from hiring a general SEO agency?
General SEO agencies optimize websites. We optimize Google Business Profiles specifically, for Canadian mortgage brokers specifically. That narrow focus means our playbooks, photo standards, post calendars, and review templates are already built for how brokers actually win, not adapted from a plumber template the week you signed up.
