SUMMARY:Success in 60- Google My Business
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that if your business is not on Google\, your business actually does not exist? That is what is commonly said in the marketing world. Therefore\, in this workshop\, you will be able to learn how to create and optimize your Google My Business profile to attract customers to your physical store or local business. In this workshop you will learn:\n\n  How to claim\, verify and optimize your business in Google my Business (GMB)?\n\n  Which businesses are eligible and which are not?\n\n  And much more\n\nEnsuring your customers can find you on the web when they are searching is critical. In fact\, according to the Pew Research Center\, 91% of adults use search engines to find information regularly\, and almost half of all searches on Google are people looking for local information.\n\nBut sometimes\, it is frustrating to make sure you are showing up on Google when it matters!\n\nIn this Lunch & Learn Workshop\, we will be talking about some of the significant changes coming to Google My Business and how you can prepare. We will also talk about the factors that go into ranking your listing so you can optimize it.\n\nThis is a workshop\, so bring your laptop\, notepad\, and questions as we will have plenty of Q&A time.\n\n\n\nAbout our Speaker:\n\nAfter having a diverse career ranging from corporate America\, family-owned businesses\, and nonprofits\, Matt Meeks started his own business\, SquareFrame Media. He now runs a successful marketing agency with his business partner. He loves the ever-changing marketing industry and enjoys the challenge of figuring it all out.\n\nMatt has worked on a variety of projects with brands like Google Fiber\, Chick-fil-A\, Audi\, Wendy's\, State Farm Insurance\, in addition to startups and family-owned businesses.\n\n\n\nCoffee and pastries will be served.
