5 Reasons to set-up a Google Profile Today

You launched your business and you’re blogging, you’re using social networking sites, and you’re going to networking meetings, but have you set-up a Google Profile? Google is one of the biggest search engines out there today and you absolutely want to make sure that Google is linked to you!

Here are 5 reasons you should set-up your profile today!

1. Your profile will appear at the bottom of the first page on Google. You know that everybody checks everybody else out online now. Let’s just say you are at a networking meeting and you meet Susie and set-up a one on one next week. Before meeting with her, you think what else should I know about Susie and do a Google search. If Susie has set-up a Google Profile, you would find her listed at the bottom of the first page with all the information she wants you to know.


2. Your profile can include links to your Blog, Website, Social Media Pages, Services, Products, YouTube videos or whatever you want to put links to. This is a great tool to help people connect to what you offer!


3. You can have your bio on your profile. Let people know who you are, what you offer and how you can help them.

4. Your profile can include photos! Flicker photos can be integrated onto your profile! If you make Cakes, Design Jewelry, have an Apparel line or have samples of your work, you can include them on your profile. How great is that? Let a potential client experience what you offer via pictures!!

5. Having a profile on Google is not only a great way to help brand you, but it is a great way to promote your business too! Take advantage of another opportunity for you to showcase what you want people to know about YOU and YOUR BIZ.

It only takes a few minutes to set-up your Google Profile and is free to do! You can set-up your Google Profile by going to www.google.com/profiles. For the small investment in time, you have nothing but opportunity to gain.
