Hello,

Did you verify your business listing?  Google sends you a postcard with a verification code on it.  If you haven't done that yet, it's probably the reason.

Postcard or even a sms on your phone if you give them your number.

Could be an issue related to competition and how far you are from the centroid? Please confirm the industry, city and how far you're outside the city.
