so
if you haven't done so already your first action item we need to be this
presentation is the claim your listing

anybody want to let you listen to a postcard sometimes very patient number
but the reason is pretty simple

uh... any of you know
what they're talking about when it comes to gamble
and a lot of places
though just do the bad minimum make sure it's a hundred percent complete
and optimization list was ninety percent complete
is in eight months in what is the minorities more at ease some of it
if you have a caller all the way
then chances are you from the chance to compete
one of the most important ranking factors
if not dumb
most important is boudreaux pagecont prodi nis so again just make sure one
hundred-percent

you are you know it's your business so just put it down on a piece of paper
that altman them so i put it out on the listing

that means getting ahead of us know customers particularly when they offer
unsolicited positive feedback
to take a few minutes to put their explode their experience into words
and submitted the guru
for the world to see
and other approaches to give people a gift coincidence would rory in exchange
for that time to submit your review
if you take this route
the important thing is to stress
that you're not asking them for a positive review
because that would be almost like a pro in some kind of way
emphasizing you wanted to be on us in our system of your company

google goals

sweater special around from time to time
uh... just ongoing that america's we put the same time over and over again just
so i'll be able to see
that's what you have any represented born hope you remember what it just does
not work like that anymore
okay now s address some of the free glass questions
the businesses have regarding people plus local
if you don't see your sake don't hesitate to isolate wrote this
presentation underneath his presentation which was an email address cheapened
incident comes at me
the any further questions unanswered
number one
scalpels and make the most of my missing on him
pretty obvious question right into these presentations have
yeah of course we've already covered all the basics powered even anyway because
repetition this mother and letting them is the father excellence
someone
make sure you are listening is complete
i told you elizabeth some of the brick requote okay
mentioned listings complete
more than that make sure you're taking every opportunity to go above and beyond
the bare minimum adding the amount of clinton he completed
and a bunch of posters and take time to write compelling company description
specifically
tracings rather directories and mention it included the exact same information
inc each one and lastly encourage or happy customers to write positive
reviews
and of course also glossary
videos if you have a number of it is a big help to barbieri's again optimize Google plus local for your business
paste and all he ended up with an angel do close local package
next question there what do you have a bad review what going to take it down
the bad news is you can't take it down a symbolic scruples terms of use
and that's a very tough constantly
i'm gonna require historic why im
reading and he really good reason to convince crew
to remove that review
dulu
uh... for any reason to leave a comment
in local
uh... that's not
let's say because you know that hollis and then care about the reputation
because then you need to maintain a reputation as a fair and neutral party
now you can always attempt to defuse bag refused by responding publicly in some
cases this can end up being a great cabinetry fuel business because it shows
the public
detained customer complaints seriously
ever completed two excellent service sold that business is getting this bible
plus local reviews because they're out there in the opening unity it's in
control of the customer
it's probably think if you really embraces featured
both positive and negative feedback can be good if you abuses
and help the grime even though it's sometimes hard to hate
think about it easily
a customer who has written a review
has taken the time to invest name
investment success of your business
you know if you can make that business improvement based on a review
he's and user and ship to change
really if you have a better view on this specifically
take that as an opportunity to publicly say heyyy i'm sorry
we've learned from this experience
how about we invite you back to a location and it is on us
or you know how wrestle the sadness or something people will see the solutions
that you really care about the customers in many cases
that makes it seem more believable but this is a real review it's a real
business and you really can specifically but they always said of course for the
good reviews
and people this will be seen
visually people were killed his seed is our yoga goodwill plus local package
and this interactions or people like to see because it makes a business feel
that there is a real person behind it who really does care about their
customers
so you've got a question wasn't listening showed up in the splendor in
the results more surprising inducted into plus local
has gotten dairy competitive because no giving people those people plus local
so that it could add these listings
write-up page one told the people so in the old days you can simply but i think
this is the single people
and seeing that pretty much
in the quote will be crosses the seven packed a few weeks later
these days if you listen doesn't happen you a hundred percent school
you can forget about being listed in the best seven local businesses of people
displaced optimize Google plus local for your business
political results
yet and there are a number of ways
to be good if we get blamed for it to be for a good position
uh... as we discovered specifically again
at the concept usual pictures and videos get reviews show activity refreshing
content all discuss that this was going to make you ten times better than it
competition
uh... that our even trying to squeeze in the at any given time
uh... why is there really seem for my business completely brows and that was
pretty simple
the most fun is comparable with and assemble a page automatically using the
information they follow through on the demands additional
new listings can be created uh... specifically anyone
which brings us to the last question why do i need to clean my listing
well criminalist and has several benefits
but that's the most important is that it looks you'll disdain
everyone else
so you know i would have been the majority of a will major's contents
excluding the customer reviews of course
perfect is that claimed the listing provides information to his giving
so you can let you can see how many times you listing has shown up in
sections
having people who do you do it
even how many people have asked for directions for cyclically
consider creating a repairing uh...
so what's really going to do
so she pretty much locked in what you claimed you listing you know when she
heard really good analytics at how at least things actually being shot in the
news
you know how often do bill clinton you number one how people recommend how
smoothly tons of people that she clicking on it
how many times they do you make money at home so that he
making it action
on that list thing which is great concern to them
learn from specifically for many other of your availed acting tactics
and of course
to see how people how active people are the or industry
and how they needed which can be a great inside to other tech bosnia's on
strategies you want to implement market
so at this point you might be feeling unwell would be perfectly honest
uh... bed there that will be some challenges in this process is ongoing
ekta
there will be necessary to really be successful in getting your people plus
local page number one
but don't be discouraged by these challenges
because recall the benefits
middle-class look was a great tool to handing them out the national
it's a form of advertising that's affordable
what we say
effective
and it's relevant
that recall that ninety seven percent of consumers to use it solutions that by
local companies with the two thirds using people to do so
nasa scientists
you can do it looking for these results when you can get results link back from
earth freebasing
is it really that hard to sit down and go through all this
people plus local is not rocket science and not by any stretch of the
imagination
so don't worry
here at everything you need to be successful
and if you need help
or encouragement along the way you can always call upon us
or a member of our team to help you get unstuck
but that's what the president let me also conserve a few other f_-eighteens
that people
uh... specifically asked leasing bodies
kalahari someone to submit positive reviews the google parcel to say they
can't get the actual reviews themselves
of course a highly encourage you to put them on their yourself specifically
some people might want to harness and i a strong winds and no
this practice what he considered a form of spam violates the terms of most web
directories
and hear ones working time anyway
even after reviews and legitimate
maybe they came from surveys uh... opml comment cards or something
even then you're not supposed to submit them on behalf of the original and the
original walter
is it going
according to our children whose policy itself so you know you may have these
currencies post nikon submit them
if you do it when she shell only your name
in this case is really doesn't look walked into anyway because he loves to
look at the r_p_a_ dresses with purcell purcell of dean from
and they can get it will put your name
information under that fort
sammico six range anyway key countries in the new york ny raping authentic
questions for a quick referred to as question
is what if i don't have a store in actual musical impatient or not this
comes to greatly and the same
and yes of course you can use it again
but you still need to submit and mailing address to be able to create your
listing
if you work from home when you're in the motive all businesspeople specify
service area
inside a process
and all team tonight she specifically quite a treacherous which is having a
good thing to do if you had she work from home
purposefully everything you need me never much clearer understanding people
plus local
uh... we've pretty much made it into the presentation
i hope this has been helpful and i really appreciate unsecured if he'd make
it this far pretty well i really appreciate you taking the time it later
