It is honestly essential for your business in order to meet customer needs if you have a physical location or establishment for your business or organization. Google My Business will let you manage what individuals see when they search for your business on google, especially Google Maps if they are looking for directions. They can easily call you directly from this page too, and you are easily able to track that information for insights purposes.

I would definitely recommend this Google service to any colleague or company that is considering implementing it in their workplace. Google My Business is the best option to consider if a company needs to have a better positioning on the internet, since it offers a business file that can have complete information about the company, services it offers, exact location and also works in conjunction with the service of Google Maps, to facilitate the arrival of all customers. Google My Business allows you to control all the positioning of the business file, you can respond to all kinds of customer reviews that your company has had and you can highlight all the company's services.

Currently, the only problem is that direct messages cannot be regulated and this causes spam to occur in the mailbox, however, I do not consider this to be a serious problem. Google My Business has very good features to improve the positioning of a company and get more customers to reach the exact location.

Google My Business is well suited in situations where buyer needs to communicate directly with seller, or needs to find more information about their business with questions on a surface level, etc. Google My Business is less appropriate in situations where private information is being given, or anything in that area is involved.

It's great for boosting local search, collecting reviews, and increasing business.

It shouldn't be used without a website setup, as lots of people click through to the website and then enquire through there rather than Google My Business itself.

Essential for any business with a geographical location.

If you are serious about online marketing, have products or services to sell and an actual premises Google My Business is essential.
It also houses customer reviews and provides a star rating which with the addition of some html (schema) on your web page displays your star rating in the Google search results.
If you are purely online and do not encourage visitors such as to a warehouse it is not as useful.

Every business needs to have a properly set up and optimized Google My Business account in this day and age. If not, that business is not relevant. In fact, GMB has so much credibility that it can be a huge turnoff if some businesses don't have an account and can be bad for their perception. It's appropriate for every business, no matter if it's an online business or a brick-and-mortar. The basic tools are free and GMB provides businesses with so much more leverage to be indexed and found in local search queries.

Google My Business is a must if you want to have a listing on Google and keep your Google assets updated as a local business. Being able to easily add photos and videos to my Google My Business listing is a nice feature. Their suggestions on how to update your account are also handy to keep your listing current.

Google My Business is well suited for small/medium-sized businesses with physical locations. especially if you have multiple locations. It helps people find your business. Also, there's a reputation aspect to it such as the ratings. A good Google My Business page will increase the change of people calling your business and use your services.
