Consumers are getting more internet savvy now days when searching for a local business. In many cases when a search is done for a business the searcher will include in their search term the geographical area they live in to find that business type closest to them. Now the question is, are you showing up for those results?
Did you know that your business could quite possibly show up on the first page of those Google results and you can be there at no cost to you at all. The way to do it is through a fantastic service that Google provides on Google maps or otherwise known as Google Local Business Centre.
The first thing you need to do is to go here and create an account.You will need to fill out all the information about your business including your real business location and once you have verified this information Google will add your business to their Google Maps results.
The benefits of having a listing for your business here are huge but you need to know how to set this up correctly so that you stand out from your competition. To stand out on Google Maps local business search you complete with as much compelling information about your business as possible so be diligent when creating your business profile. In many cases a great business profile will sway your potential customer into doing business with your even before they look elsewhere.
In your profile include your opening hours. Have good emotionally compelling pictures of your business. You can also include a video of your business. In your business description explain what makes you unique and more valuable then your competitors and why people should do business with you. Have your guarantee there to take the risk away from your prospects and truly make you stand out. Include your available payment methods. Have a link to your website on your profile as well. You can also put a coupon up on this page with a strong call to action.
It’s very important to ask your customers to give your business a review on this page. The more reviews you get will truly make a difference.
Remember that when people search for your business name your business profile can show up so you need it to be complete and a good representation of your business.
If you have not done this for your business you are loosing customers. Do it now! As in today. It will not take you very long and will be the single most valuable thing you can do for your business that does not cost you a thing other than a little time.
The message here is extremely powerful. Here I have given you knowledge from countless books and learnings and condensed it into one article that you can literally read in 10 minutes and walk away knowing how to achieve enormous success in your life and business. Use it wisely. Do not discount the short length of this writing in fact treat each word with the respect and attention you would had you exchanged you most valuable of possessions on the planet for them. When you are this accountable, your actions toward your success will allow you new possessions and life experiences more valuable and superior to that for which you would have paid for the learning.
Remember you are not reading this at all by chance. However what you do with it is up to you.
The principle behind this is that you can create something glorious and powerful and hugely successful with your own personal effort. Small and continuous action moving forward will bring massive results for your goals. Picture driving to a far away destination. If you had to think of every bit of road you have to cover to get there and every turn you have to take along the way before you left you probably wouldn’t go. Here’s the thing, if you just know what direction you need to take, what road to need to be on and concentrate on the road right in front of you that you can see, then you will eventually arrive at your destination easilly.
When you have what seems like a massive task ahead of you or you challenge yourself to massive goals in your life or your business the scale of these tasks can be overwhelming. This feeling can be like standing directly under a tall skyscraper, looking up and saying “wow this is unbeleavably amazing.” Well that amazing skyscraper started out as an idea in somebody’s head. Somebody who would of naturally felt overwhelmed but who visioned the end result and felt empowered. Somebody who took that idea and created it vividly and realistically in their mind felt elevated by it’s glory then simply believed they would make it happen and decided to make a start.
Here’s how.
When you take your enormous idea, put it down on paper break your vision down into a plan of action starting with the end result and working backwards to outline the steps in succession you need to take, all of a sudden the massive task ahead seems achievable. The fact that you’ve just planned your steps to success is a powerful achievement in itself. Now by whatever means possible force yourself to do the first step in your plan and then just keep going one small step at a time over and over again with frequency.
To help you on your journey I will give you four magic pieces of wisdom to plant into your foundations.
Understand the needs of those you will be serving with every step you take. These are your Customers.
Know how others are currently serving the same people and figure out how you will serve them deeper, fuller, better and happier than they could possibly be served anywhere else. Smash your competitors.
Know where you are weak and immediately work on making that weakness your strenght.
Understand that everything you are today is the result of your actions. You can not be a success at anything without effort. To find the key to your success look within yourself. It all starts with you knowing what you want and believing you can get it. Your desire alone to want to succeed will fuel your actions. To make positive change for your future know your weaknesses and you will understand where you need to improve as an individual. Take steps to improve yourself and like magic your environment and the people around you will improve and success will come.

Hi Guys,
Here’s a bit of background for you. For the last 10 years I have been working with small and medium sized businesses.
First for a large company offering a solution for their Google AdWords.
Prior to this I was working for a business consulting company who helped small and medium sized businesses to increase their profits.
I have learnt so much about the challenges of the everyday business owner and realize that with a little knowledge, small changes can be made to produce big results.
My aim is to find great content and make it available so that those who want to make a change for the better can have the tools to do so without all the additional filler and fluff that usually results in overwhelm and minimal results.
