Local SEO Score
One easy score that shows how well your catering company is set up to be found on Google Maps, with the next best fix clearly listed.
When event hosts search "catering near me", the top three Google Maps results get most of the clicks, calls, and visits. Flento helps catering companies show their menus, keep service areas accurate, earn more client reviews, and rank higher when hosts plan their next event.
Six tools built for the way event hosts find, judge, and choose a catering company on Google.
You don't need to beat every catering company in town, only the ones ahead of you in the local pack. Flento compares your profile with the other catering companies nearby: reviews, ratings, photos, posts, and keywords, and shows the gaps worth closing first.
Wrong hours on one site or an old phone number on another confuses both event hosts and Google. Flento checks your listings across the web, including The Knot, Yelp, and Apple Maps, and keeps your name, address, and phone number consistent, so nobody arrives to a closed door and your local trust signals stay strong.
Your Google Business Profile is your real storefront. Most event hosts decide from the profile alone, before they ever visit your website. Flento keeps your menus, service area, event types, and inquiry options accurate and complete, so Google knows exactly what you offer and event hosts see a catering company worth choosing.
Reviews are one of the strongest ranking and trust signals for catering companies. Flento makes leaving a review effortless with a QR code after events, in thank-you emails, and on invoices, then helps you reply to every review in your brand voice. Event hosts often mention delicious food, reliable service, and a stress-free event, and a quick, thoughtful reply shows new event hosts that you are listening.
A catering company can rank first on its own street and be invisible a couple of miles away. Flento tracks your Google Maps position across a geo-grid around your location for searches like "catering near me" and "wedding catering near me", so you know where you win and where event hosts can't find you.
Catering companies that post regularly give Google and event hosts a reason to pay attention. Flento turns seasonal menus, event highlights, and tasting dates into ready-to-publish Google posts with the right local keywords, so your profile stays fresh without taking time away from your work.
Everything works in the background, so you can focus on the work that matters.
