The return on ranking

Ranking in the local pack for 'flower delivery [city]' can generate 5-10 additional orders per week, especially during peak seasons. A single wedding floral package can be worth $2,000-$5,000, making visibility for those terms highly profitable.

Search intent is mostly mixed and competition is high. Rankings here are geo split, so a national average position hides what a buyer in one metro actually sees. Positions warrant a daily check rather than a monthly report.
