We use Google My Business to show up online when people search about us. Because our brand name is also a term that people are searching regularly, it helps us to be identified as a business by showing up directly in the search engine and having our website and phone number accessible.

We use Google My Business as a place to be able to list our website and information as well as our hours and our contact information. Our whole organization uses it, though we do not update it too often, only when there is additional information for us to add. It solves a problem of making our contact information and website URL easier to find and access.

We are a small business and we use Google My Business to drive organic traffic to our website by promoting our business on Google by sharing content, announcing events (webinars and live events), special offers and announcing live in-person events for our local community. It is also a way we use to generate reviews on Google and build our social proof.

We basically use our Google My Business listing in order to list our website and to be listed on the right side of the search panel for more brand awareness as well as for SEO. It helps to increase our brand awareness significantly since our brand name is a general term.

Google My Business is being used across our organization. The organization has many campuses but through Google My Business, we were able to manage the information users get with ease. It helps us ensure that visitors will be visiting or calling the correct location and getting correct information when they look us up. There are many organizations with our same name all over the country, so this software is essential for us.

We have used Google My Business because it is one of the most favorable digital marketing tools in terms of business and social strategy, to sponsor the profile and web page of any company in the Google search engine. We also find it very conducive to provide key information that we use to enhance the profile of the business through interaction with users.

Google My Business is a very easy to use tool to make present on the internet the template of any business. Its simple management encourages the use of the application as a method of digital strategy to redirect or focus our attention to the tastes and needs of users. However, it often presents errors and rejections in the update or inclusion of data that can prove to be a frustrating obstacle.

Like Google, Google My Business provides customer service, but unfortunately when problems arise in the application and a report is made, the solutions offered are automatic responses from the system that do not solve the problems, and do not show any intention to address and investigate particular cases.

Google my business is being used in order to give us a listing online for people searching for our business. It is especially important since our business name is generic, but we do own the domain name. So when searching, people are aware of our business and what we do.

For us, having a good online presence and maintaining a good profile of our company is something totally essential, that is why we have chosen Google My Business as our main manager, to be able to modify the information that we want our clients to see and to be able to improve our online positioning. Google My Business is currently being used in our Leadership sector, where the people in charge of the company work as founders, CEO, CMO, CFO and many more, in short, those in charge of managing Google My Business in our company are the bosses and owners of the company. I have been the person who has made the decision to buy and implement this service in our company, and I must say that I have been impressed with the results obtained in such a short time. Google My Business has been in our company for two years, and thanks to this service we have been able to receive customer opinions about our services, we can answer any questions from customers or potential visitors, in addition, we can keep an updated profile at all times , where we place images of our company, the services we offer and the trained personnel who help the client to complete their transactions. It is fantastic to have this service in our company, we have been able to improve the positioning of our company considerably, clients looking for a company in the real estate sector can find us more easily thanks to the score we have online.

Google My Business is used across the board at OVS Group. It addresses and ultimately solves the issue of ineffective communication with customers, making it a faster process to communicate with our audiences, as well as potential employees, etc. Additionally, Google My Business gives an easy to read, insight report. This report shows web traffic, interests in our site, listing, and even who has messages us or is wanting more information.

We set up Google My Business to try and generate more of a presence in the search engine and generate some additional traffic to our website. Most of our team does not use it because we simply have set it up and left it and just update every once in a while. It is not a team tool.

First off what is it, Google My Business is a free product that lets you effortlessly connect with customers across Google Search and Maps. When searching for your company, people only need to click the “More Info” button underneath the name of your business in order to view contact information, get directions, or review reviews.

It is a useful tool for all business and essential for local businesses who server a defined geographical area, think small city or regions.

We are an advertising agency that creates and optimizes Google My Business accounts for our clients so they can improve their organic search rankings in the SERP. We provide GMB free of charge as an upsell to our clients that have Google Ads campaigns managed by our team. Having a verified GMB account improves not only organic, but our paid advertising efforts, especially with Google Paid Search and Search Retargeting (in addition to Google Shopping ads). Reviews are absolutely critical this day for business and GMB allows us to monitor and encourage positive reviews for our clients to improve their reputation.

I have helped an individual business owner to set up a Google My Business account to present their services on the internet. It provides a good platform to share the details of the services being offered, open hours, and the location of different branches with potential customers. Since it has integrations with different services from Google, it has helped in sharing information through different channels offered by Google like search, maps, and other services. It has helped the business in growing and improving, as customers are able to provide their feedback. This has helped the business managers to focus on areas of improvement for better customer experience.

Since there are multiple branches for the business across the city in different neighborhoods, we are able to share information for different offers of the day and discounts for each location separately on a single platform.

Google My Business is a great resource for local businesses. I use it to post info or announcements about multiple local companies. The central location to handle my Google assets for a local business is very handy. The mobile app makes it easy to manage my google listings and switch between different accounts. Being that Google is the top search engine I don’t know what you would do as a local business without Google My Business.
