According to Google, four out of five people use a search engine to find information about a local business and your Google Business Profile increases your opportunity to be seen in Google Search. The information that you add to your profile tells Google everything it needs to know about your business and it uses this data to know when and where to show information about your business in search results. 

Having a Google Business Profile allows you to level the playing field with competitors in your local market. Your main competitor may have spent thousands of dollars on a custom website, but their Google Business Profile has the same look and features as yours. This standardization provides people searching for information about your business with the ability to comparison shop and not just be dazzled by expensive marketing budgets. 

People love to comparison shop and one thing that comparison shoppers love to look at are your reviews. Your Google Business Profile provides ample space to show off your 5-star reviews and allows your happy customers to toot your horn and do some selling for you. Your business profile can soar to the top of search rankings if you make getting reviews a part of your business process. Ultimately, you will find that it is well worth the time investment to get reviews and feedback on your business.  

Google Insights is a reporting feature baked into your Google Business Profile and it provides you with essential data on how people search for your business using a related keyword, where they view information regarding your business, and what actions people are taking when they view your business profile. The information that Google Insights provides is easy to digest and can help you make decisions on marketing strategy and helps you understand how people are engaging with your business on Google.
