Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.
Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.
Owners who score well embed the badge; it links back here and updates with every scan.
