Google Business Profile (previously called Google My Business) is arguably the most important digital marketing tool available to any business. Even if you are not having a website or your business is not online, having a Google Business Profile is a must.
It is a powerful local digital marketing tool. Google Business Profile will help you increase your visibility on Google Search Results Page and most importantly, it will help you gain credibility with reviews.
In addition to increased visibility on Google Search, your business will also be visible on Google Maps. People will be able to find you while searching for ‘near me’ queries and also reach your shop/office, etc., by finding your location on Google Maps.
‘Your Digital Journey’ will help you achieve this by setting up, maintaining and regularly updating your Google Business Profile.
Why you need our professional services is because people might not know about you. For eg., you might not have a digital marketing agency name in mind so you would have searched for ‘digital marketing agency in Delhi’. Google will show Google Business Profile listings above the websites it recommends. Therefore, it is a must that your Google Business Profile listing shows up here. Believe us, you do not want to miss out on the business opportunities that a professionally managed Google Business Profile listing might bring.
Here is how we have maintained the Google Business Page (earlier known as Google My Business) of one of our clients. Contact ‘Your Digital Journey’ for the best Google Business Profile listing services.
Why you must have a Google Business Profile Listing? (Previously called Google My Business)
Google My Business (now Google Business Profile) is an absolute must even if you don’t have an office/shop/store. Your Google Business Profile will help you connect with customers, build credibility, list products/services and post updates. Even if you don’t have a storefront, you should have a Google Business Profile if you visit the customers. For eg., if you are a plumber, you may visit customers at their home, therefore, you can still use our Business Profile listing service for 2x growth in customer enquiries.
To summarise, here are some reasons as to why you must have a Google Business Profile:
- A big increase in visibility of your business. In recent years, there has been a more than 200% increase in mobile searches containing phrases such as “where to purchase” and “near me.
