As a business, association or organization, Google Business Profile is a must-have tool for you. Google listings are now becoming a central, even essential element for your visibility. They allow you to share your information, but it is also a free tool that highlights your activities, products or services that benefit from Google visibility.

Google Business Profile is a complementary support to your website which has many advantages:

It will also allow you to:

With your free business profile, you will be able to post photos and offers to show what makes you different, but above all, give reasons to your customers to choose you every time!

 

Do a test with your company, “google it”.

It will be the business listings that will be presented by Google that will appear first. You may find yourself, but your information is wrong (location, opening hours, photos, description, comments). You just might not exist! The file is to be created. This Google listing will be the first to come out, so your business must have its up-to-date listing. Your customers will use this information to continue their research, make calls or visits.
