Hi, I have a client with multiple locations. One of the locations manager is searching for branded and non-branded keywords on his mobile phone and not able to locate the business (within the parking lot of the location). Our ranking reports via a local search platform and manual checks indicate the location is actually ranking well. and we're seeing progress in GA. Has anyone deal with something like this before?
This is a location that recently opened to the public. The concern is around mobile web and app results.
I'm looking for some guidance around how to approach the situation. I'm sorry I cannot provide more details on the client.

This one is going to be very hard to troubleshoot without being able to

Look at the actual business

Stand in the parking lot with the client and his mobile device
but, the above are some first ideas. These situations can be really tough to diagnose.
