DESCRIPTION

In this presentation, we will talk about some of the common problems that many small businesses today are facing, as well as how Google+ Local can help you overcome those barriers. Just to tell you a little bit about myself, my name is Terry Power and my company is TriadInternetMarketing. We help local businesses take control of their online identity by claiming and optimizing their local business listing pages. If you need to contact me for any reason after viewing this, I can be reached at (336) 310-9322 and my website is TriadInternetMarketing.com. If you’re like most business owners today, you may be experiencing some problems when it comes to getting your phone to ring or getting more foot traffic coming through your doors. I probably don’t need to tell you that traditional marketing costs are through the roof – such as yellow pages, newspaper ads, and tv commercials. Some of your closest competitors are probably using new methods to gather most of the local attention, which takes away from your company’s bottom line. Technology, such as the internet, social media, and mobile marketing are the new-age ways to market your business. These methods actually generate results because times have changed… However, many businesses get stuck because they don’t know what to do so they end up not doing anything – or even worse, wasting a lot of time trying to do it themselves and ultimately waste money in the process. However, there are ways to overcome these barriers… One way to make that happen is by claiming and optimizing your Greensboro Google+ Local listing. You may have heard of Google+ Local (or formerly called Google Places). It is a business-related platform that focuses specifically on companies and their locations… All businesses should claim and complete their Google+ Local business listings 100%. This will not only help your listing rank better, but it will provide your audience with the type of information they may be looking for, such as your phone number, address, hours of operation, website address, and more. Another major part of Google+ Local is the ability for users to leave customer reviews about your company. So to ensure that your company has more good reviews than bad ones, be sure to ask your satisfied customers to leave reviews for your company whenever possible. Also stay on top of these reviews and be sure to respond to show other viewers that you actually care about customer satisfaction. The main benefit of using Google+ Local is that it will help your company get more search engine exposure. In addition, it’s integrated with Google Maps so visitors will know exactly how to get to your location, which is powerful. Claiming and completing your Google+ Local listing is a must today if you are serious about increasing the amount of exposure your company gets online. Want more info ?
