how we ranked

We scored every agency using only public information and a published formula, and we looked at how each agency's own Google profile performs. An agency that sells profile management should keep its own profile in good shape. Our next quarterly update adds a reply test: whether each agency answers the reviews on its own profile.

  • No agency paid to be listed or ranked, and none can.
  • Wimi is not on this list. We make software, not agency services, so ranking ourselves would make the list worthless.
  • Every score comes from the agency's website and its public Google profile, checked on the date at the top of this page.
  • Scores are calculated from those facts with the formula on this page. We never adjust them by hand.
the full scoring formula
  • Google rating: max(0, min(10, (rating - 3) × 5)). Reviews: 200+ = 10; 100–199 = 8; 50–99 = 6; 25–49 = 4; <25 = 2.
  • Local focus: dedicated = 25; core = 18; broad = 10.
  • Transparency: own-site-prices = 20; own-site-ranges = 16; directory-rate = 8; quote = 4.
  • Proof: case-studies = 15; client-names = 8; none = 0.
  • Presence: city = 10; greater-area = 8.
  • Ties are broken by local focus points, then review count. Unverified information is not scored as zero.

do you need an agency at all?

It depends on what is actually broken. Agencies earn their fee on strategy, websites, citations, ads and fixing a profile that is suspended or missing. If your profile is set up and the real gap is unanswered reviews and a profile that has gone quiet, you may not need one.

Wimi's Pro plan replies to Google reviews in your voice and in the reviewer's language. Free covers all locations* with up to 7 replies each week per location, same day auto posting and basic insights. Pro is $20 a month per location, billed monthly. Owners use Wimi on its own, and agencies can use it for their clients.

*Up to 7 replies each week per location.

A simple way to decide: if you can name a problem only an expert can fix, hire an agency from this list. If the problem is time, automate it first.

questions to ask before you sign

  1. Will I stay the owner of my Google Business Profile? The agency should be added as a manager. Never hand over ownership.
  2. Who replies to my reviews, how fast, and in which language? Ask whether you approve replies, and whether replies match the reviewer's language.
  3. How do you ask customers for reviews? They should ask every customer. Google doesn't allow screening out unhappy customers or offering anything in return for a review.
  4. What do you report each month? Look for calls, direction requests and website clicks from your profile, not only rankings.
  5. What is the minimum contract, and what happens when I leave? Get the notice period and the handover in writing.
  6. Can I see a profile you manage today? Check its recent posts and whether its reviews get replies.

frequently asked questions

How much does Google Business Profile management cost in Montréal?

Published prices on this list range from $500 to $1,500 a month for a small local business. Hourly rates listed on public directories run from $70 to $150. Most agencies quote after a call.

Can an agency reply to my reviews in French and English?

Ask before you sign. Replies should match the language of each review, since Montréal customers write in both.

How long until I see results?

Profile fixes such as categories, hours and photos can show within weeks. Ranking higher in Google Maps usually takes months of steady reviews, replies and posts.

Should my agency own my Google profile?

No. You own it and add the agency as a manager, so you keep control if you switch.

Do I need an agency if I only want my reviews answered?

Usually not. Review replies are the easiest part to automate. Keep an agency for the work that needs an expert.
