Not only is this incredible brand awareness, it also allows potential
customers to easily access directions to your business, hours of operation,
contact details and more!
2. Your Google My Business allows people to review your
business and view past reviews
Consumers and business owners are heavily in uenced by reviews whether
we like it or not.
So, having several positive reviews can be the di erence between a customer
choosing you and another business in town.
Take advantage of publicly displayed reviews on your Google My Business
listing and encourage your loyal customers to review your performance!
This will have positive e ects on your brand image, sales and search engine
optimization.
Google has over 200 factors they use to rank websites and reviews are
thought to be a major player in this process!
However, it gets much more in depth than this.

later post.
Yes, your listing is completely free and extremely easy to use. Simply use your
work email to create your listing and choose the veri cation method that
best suits your needs.
Then you will have access to your dashboard where you can easily update
information, add photos/videos and much more.
It is equally as easy as setting up a social media account and the user
