Eligibility
Your business is eligible for a Google Business Profile:
If your business has a physical location that customers can visit
or
You are a service business that travels to a customers location to perform a service
For example: a plumber
When someone searches “plumber near me” your plumbing business will show up on the Google map search result page, allowing the customer to easily contact a local plumber.
Postcard By Mail
Before your business can appear on the Google Map Search Results Page, Google must verify your business address. Follow my video above to establish your Google Business Porfile. Once completed, Google will send a postcard to your business address within 10 days.
Submitting Verification
Your postcard should arrive in approximately 5-7 days. Inside the perforrated envelope is a verification code. Log back into your Google Business Profile page, enter the code and complete your registration.
Completing Your Profile
Upon receiving your Google postcard, sign back into your Google Profile. Enter the code located on your postcard and complete your profile setup. Your account should change to status: verified. The Business Profile Manager dashboard is replicated below. Click on each tab for details or insights on completing your setup!
