How Agencies Are Saving 20+ Hours Per Week Managing GBP with AI Assistants
Managing Google Business Profiles for multiple clients is a time sink. Between monitoring reviews, tracking rankings, auditing profiles, and generating content, agencies are drowning in repetitive tasks that eat into billable hours and limit growth.
But what if your team could ask a simple question like "How are rankings trending for my restaurant clients this month?" and get an instant, comprehensive answer? What if responding to reviews, auditing profiles, and generating content ideas happened through natural conversation with AI?
That's the reality for agencies using Fly Agent—a suite of 14 specialized AI agents that work with Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini to transform how you manage client GBP portfolios. Here's how forward-thinking agencies are cutting management time by 80% without sacrificing quality.
The Hidden Cost of Manual GBP Management
Let's be honest about the math. For a typical agency managing 50 client locations, here's where time disappears every week:
The Weekly Time Drain (50 Locations)
- Review monitoring & response drafting8-10 hours
- Rank tracking & reporting4-6 hours
- Profile audits & compliance checks3-5 hours
- Content ideation & post creation5-8 hours
- Profile change monitoring2-3 hours
- Total Weekly Hours22-32 hours
That's essentially a full-time employee dedicated just to GBP maintenance—not strategy, not client communication, not business development. Just keeping the lights on.
