More of the people searching for what you sell, in your own end of the county, find your business first and get in touch. For a Tipperary business the monthly report shows calls and direction requests from the Google profile, website enquiries, and the AI answers that name you, or a competitor, for searches in your towns. It also shows which towns the calls come from, which matters in a county this size. - A free audit first: how you show up today on Google, Google Maps and AI tools. - A written plan of the searches and towns to aim for, agreed with you before anything changes. - We make the changes, and you approve anything your customers will see. - One page of results every month, and a call whenever you want one. - No ranking promises: Google itself says no one can guarantee the top spot. **What you get** | What you get | What it means for you | | --- | --- | | Found for the searches that matter | Your services and your towns, in the words your customers type into Google. | | A Google Business Profile that works | Complete, accurate and kept active, so Google Maps shows you to people nearby. | | Named in AI answers | Plain facts about your business that ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI results can find and repeat. | | A monthly report in plain English | Calls, Maps views and the AI answers that mention you, on one page. | ## Where in County Tipperary do your customers search? Tipperary had two county councils until 2014, and it still searches like two places: Nenagh and Roscrea look north towards Limerick and Offaly, while Clonmel and Carrick-on-Suir look south and east. Google weighs distance for near me searches, so a Clonmel business rarely shows to someone searching in Nenagh, and the other way round. A plan picks the towns you really serve and makes sure your profile and pages say so. The county also draws visitors: the Rock of Cashel and Cahir Castle bring tourists who plan from the map, the Galtees bring walkers, and the Lough Derg shore near Nenagh has its own summer trade. The M8 brings drivers who search for food and fuel near the junctions. **Main towns in County Tipperary, and how far each is from Gorey** | Town | From Gorey Business Park | | --- | --- | | Clonmel | About 100 km | | Nenagh | About 130 km | | Thurles | About 105 km | | Tipperary town | About 130 km | | Cashel | About 110 km | | Roscrea | About 105 km | | Carrick-on-Suir | About 85 km | Straight-line distances, rounded to the nearest 5 km. ## Which Tipperary businesses do we help get found? More than 73,200 people were at work in County Tipperary in April 2022, up 15% since 2016. Manufacturing employed the most, then retail and health, according to the CSO. Tipperary's manufacturers, from food and drink to engineering, often sell to buyers outside the county, who search by product and sometimes ask AI tools for a shortlist of suppliers. Clear pages about what you make and who for do the work there. Shops, trades and health providers win most of their work closer to home, from Google Maps and reviews, and from short journeys: 19,452 Tipperary commuters travelled less than 15 minutes to work at Census 2022.

Yes, if you have customers in both. Clonmel and Nenagh are about 65 km apart, so Google treats them as separate local markets. A plan that covers both names each town you serve on your profile and pages, and the report shows calls from each end of the county separately. ### Can tourists at the Rock of Cashel find my café or shop? Yes, if your Google profile shows you are close, open and worth the walk. Visitors to Cashel and Cahir choose from the map on their phones, often within a few streets of where they parked. Recent photos, accurate hours and real reviews decide who gets them through the door. ### Can a Tipperary food or drink producer sell further afield through search? Yes. Shops, restaurants and online shoppers search by product, region and quality, not by town. Pages that say clearly what you make, where it comes from and how to buy or stock it give Google and AI tools facts they can show. The audit checks how you appear for those searches today. ### Do people driving the M8 search for businesses in Tipperary towns? Many do, for food, fuel, a repair or a bed for the night, and usually from the map on a phone. A business near a junction needs an accurate profile with opening hours and directions that make sense from the motorway. Your monthly report shows how many asked Google for directions to you. ### Is it worth a farm business or agri supplier being on Google? Yes. Farmers and contractors search for parts, services and suppliers by name and by what they need, often on a phone in the yard. A complete Google profile and a clear page listing what you stock and the areas you deliver to help you get the call instead of a competitor further away. ### Can AI tools mix up businesses in different Tipperary towns? They can, when the facts online disagree: an old address, a second listing or a different phone number. AI tools repeat what they find, so we make sure your details are the same everywhere and your town is clear. The monthly report shows which AI answers name you and how they describe you.
