Reasons why to Have a Google Business Profile

Reasons for a Google Business Profile if you’re a local business:

It’s free.
Great way to increase a local business’ online visibility.
Most people looking for something “local” or “near me” will more likely go to what they see in the search engine results rather than taking the time to go to a website. Having a GBP is a great way to be seen. (ties into “online visibility”) – the first point of contact for most people/searchers rather than your business.
Gives you a chance to show up in the Google Map Pack.
Easy to use.
You can post products and offerings on your profile.

Do you already have a GBP but are not sure if it’s working for you? You may feel your GBP is not working for you but it may just be expectations that need to be managed. I can help get your GBP working for your better as well.
