At lunch the other day a group of business people were complaining about how annoying their Google Business Profile is to use.
Aaaaand they’re not wrong. But managing your profile is a necessary evil…like going to the dentist - you don’t have to love it but you do have to do it.
You want to show up when people search for you on Google, right?
Your Google Business Profile determines 9% of your organic search ranking.
Ever wondered how to get your business show up on the search results map?
Your Google Business Profile determines 32% of the factors that get you on that map.
And just like everything else Google there’s a trick to getting your profile set up correctly so you can use it to it’s fullest potential.
So in this episode Monica welcomes Marilyn Jenkins, CEO of MJ Media Group, to crack the code and teach us how to maximize our Google Business Profiles.
Marilyn shares some super simple ways to:
- Get more real reviews without feeling like a pest (we’ve all been there, right? )
- Show up in Google’s “Map Pack” (the top 3 spots that customers actually look at)
- Keep your profile updated so people trust you, click on you, and, oh yeah, buy from you
And the best part? It's easier than you think, once you know the tricks. So, give it a listen! You’ll be glad you did.
