HAVING A 'GOOGLE MY BUSINESS' JUST PAGE ISN'T ENOUGH
THE HOLY GRAIL OF DIGITAL MARKETING FOR BUSINESS.
If you are not managing your company's Google My Business DAILY, you are missing out on some serious local sales and opportunities.
WHY YOU WANT TO OPTIMIZE YOUR GOOGLE MY BUSINESS PAGE YOURSELF
HERE ARE SOME CONVINCING REASONS & TIPS
-
MAKE YOUR COMPANY VISIBLE
About 90% of searchers haven’t made up their mind about a brand before starting their search. This simply means that your business has to be visible for online search to capture their attention and stand out from your competition.
Without Google My Business, you’ll be missing the chance to be visible regardless of how heavily you practice SEO techniques on your website. GMB listings get priority on the first page of local Google searches and Maps queries.
-
ENSURE ONLINE CONSISTENCY
As your business grows or undergoes changes, you want to be able to keep your customers informed and educated simultaneously.
Keep your customers in the loop by updating your listing on Google My Business, such as phone numbers, addresses, websites, and social media.
-
UPLOAD IMAGES TO MAKE A GREAT FIRST IMPRESSION
Having a GMB page adds a digitally savvy touch to your online branding because it shows customers that you’re willing to stay updated and modern. Catering to their digital needs so they can quickly call/connect, purchase, and repeat.
Try to upload at least 5-10 photos and videos, the more images, the better. No pictures on your Google listing is just as displayed as not having a profile image on social media. Help customers to warm up to your Google My Business listing.
-
IMPROVE YOUR LOCAL SEO
Google My Business can be one of your most powerful SEO tools. But it’s not enough to add a few contact details. You’ll have to optimize your Google My Business to see the best results. Having Virtual Tour done to your business supercharges your GMB listing.
-
HOST CUSTOMER REVIEWS

You need to constantly monitor and respond to your Google My Business reviews.
No good thing comes without a bit of elbow grease. Each week set aside time (or as an employee to review) and respond to reviews on your GMB listing.
