How to Rank in the Map Pack for Multiple Services
You do more than one thing, but Google wants clarity. Here is how to rank for several services.
A single profile can only say so much, so ranking for several services means helping Google connect your business to each one. List every service explicitly in your profile, back each with a dedicated useful page, lead with your primary service to stay focused, and track rankings per service and area.
One profile, many searches
A business that offers several services wants to appear for each of them, but a single profile can only say so much. The work is helping Google connect your business to each distinct service. Related: The Google Business Profile Fundamentals That Move Rankings

Use your services and pages
List each service explicitly in your profile, and back it with a dedicated, genuinely useful page on your site for each one. That gives search engines a clear, relevant target to rank. Related: How often should a small business check its Google Map Pack rankings?
Do not dilute your primary focus
Trying to be everything can weaken your core. Lead with your primary service, the one you most want to be known for, and support the others without confusing what you fundamentally are.
Track each service separately
A single overall rank hides the truth. Track your position for each service and each area, so you can see which combinations are working and which need attention. Related: When should a multi-location business track rankings for each store separately?
