The most important thing to make sure your business is properly submitted to the Google Local Business Center.

The LBC is a free listing and allows for free updates and is one tool Google uses to identify and rank "local" businesses. Suprisingly, most businesses have not taken the time, or more likely are not aware of it so they remain unlisted.

There are some other things that you can do to improve your local/map listings, but I will need to share those in the next entry.
