Google My Business Specialist
First we went over, Why Google My Business, and we showed how it is in Google's direct interest as a business that propels its marketing to promote not only its own properties above others, but your business along with it. We also tried to show you how that benefits you the business person.
Second we covered how GMB produces results. With Google’s new program, “Mobile First” officially rolled out in July of this year, 2018. We are seeing amazing results with Google’s rewarding those that utilize the program. Google has covertly combined these two programs together and created a very powerful tool for the local business. Google isn’t going to come out and say, “hey look everyone what we are doing!” They need people like us to tell you. They are coy in what they do and don’t explain to anyone. The more that becomes public, the more they begin to fall under the scrutiny eye of regulatory agencies and government watchdogs. We know thru how we are testing and by putting two and two together.
All GMB listings need to be total optimized and if a person can not do it themselves, they need help setting it up.

We also covered posting on GMB and why it's so important, and demonstrated how Google takes you serious and recognizes your entity/business/brand. Its where you can post all the different types of posts that Google will allow.
We covered Branding and why it’s so important. Many people go not think of themselves as a brand. However, if you think of Miley Cyrus, or Sylvester Stallone, or Arnold Schwarzenegger, or the word Trump, you certainly think of a brand. By the way, try typing in Arnold, and see how far you get before Arnold Schwarzenegger comes up in the auto fill. You can try that with any famous star. The four letters — mile — gets you Miley Cyrus.
In how you can Brand your Business, we showed how there is several different ways of branding, but the best and fastest way to get Google to recognize your brand is with a Branded Social Media Network. The number one metric to rank anything on Google is “Social Engagement.” Google says Social engagement is described as views, shares, likes, click thru, posting on your blog or website, all of these are social engagement. By making the association with your social media network and having it branded to your business, you are teaching Google to recognize your business/brand.

Google My Business Social media marketing
When you combine your GMB posting and sharing it on your Branded Social Media Network, sharing the post to all your social properties, Google loves it. Google eats it up! When you show Google you are taking it up a notch by sharing your GMB post with your social media, Google see’s it as “Social Engagement”.  When you do this Google will make you a preferred listing and give you more exposure over all of your competition that is not doing this, even if your competition is number one in the map.
The way we can say that this works and how well this works, is because We do this everyday for businesses all over the US and the world. The results are consistent for every business we do it for.

We recently set up a GMB for a author that is a number one best seller on Amazon.  And no, he isn’t selling books from a store or his house. So why does a GMB listing for a author, you ask? Simple, branding, presence and search ability. It may not have an immediate direct impact on sales thru his GMB posting but it certainly will in the future. The impact on his branding, both of himself and his books, postings, reviews and more has been noticeable.
He did a review on a book from another author, he made a video review. When he posted that he had done this review and he only put the url of the video in the post. Google ranked that video on the first page of Google, in the three pack of videos! The search query was for the keyword not an exact match search. Additionally, the YouTube account was a new account! He didn’t post the video on his website or promote it any other way. So the only way Google could rank this was from his post on his GMB, and then secondly when he shared the post to his Branded Social Media Network. This wasn’t just a one time fluke. It happens every time he is posting on his GMB.
So in the long run, the Branded network combined with his Google My Business Social media marketing is accelerating his Branding. And eventually this is going to convert into more sales of his books on Amazon.
We have many clients that have results like the Auto repair shop mentioned. The client doesn’t have a website. The client was nowhere to be found in the map. We started in the worst part of the year for his business. He was only getting a few calls a month. We created his GMB listing and we are doing the posting for his business, and we also built his Branded Social Media Network, and posted to it on a regular basis.
Fast forward 60 days.
He is now number one in the map for his main keyword “Auto Repair,” and in the map pack (top three) for several other keywords related to his services for his business.
He went from a few calls every month, to 47 calls in 28 days the second month. Not quite double of what he got the month before.
He went from 1100 actions taken on his listing the first month to over 3200 actions taken on his listing the second month!

Google My Business Branding
Many small business owners already understand that branding is essential to their business, but a surprisingly high number of them don't really know why. For this conversation, for Google and why its important. Google’s learning brain algo or its rank Brain Algo is quite complex. Because of those, you have to teach Google about your company, your business, your product, your service, YOUR BRAND. You have to make Google choke on your branding to get Google to recognize it as a legitimate entity.
One way you can brand your company is with what we call Citations. Citations are just business listings on a business Directory. Some of these directories have a very high ranking sites, and to have a listing on them gives that business website a good back-link that Google see’s as you establishing your entity. Google see’s your Brand on other sites, making your presence online.
A great brand building strategy is to get involved with local partnerships (this is tremendously important for local-oriented businesses, but can be applied for other businesses as well). Partner with other local businesses to hold joint intro seminars or festivals. Sponsor local sports
teams and donate to charity events. Getting your brand plastered around festivals and events will do big things for your brand.
One of the best ways and the fastest way to get Google to recognize your brand is with a Branded Social Media Network. Google has published every year what the number one metric to rank anything on Google is. The number one metric to rank anything on Google is “Social Engagement”. Google says Social engagement is described as views, shares, likes, click thru, posting on your blog or website, all of these are social engagement.
For all of you that say: “I’ve got a social media network,” or “I have a Face Book page,” or “I have a Twitter account,” or “I’m on Pinterest,”  Unfortunately, that’s not going to cut it with Google. That is not a branded network.
My definition of a social media network is, having between 15 to 25 social accounts. And when it comes to building a Branded Social Media Network, all of them need to be branded with your company info, logo, description, and your photos (optimized) to show Google that this is XYZ company which in their business model equals a “Brand.”
You can accomplish that by inter-linking the social properties together and showing Google that this is all one entity, thus creating a Branded Network, and at the same time establishing your Brand.
It doesn’t stop there, you have to actively post to your branded network to show Google and teach Google and make Google choke on your brand!
Compound the branded network with when you post from your GMB or share to your network, Google see’s not only you are serious, but you are engaged socially. Social Engagement remember? This by far the fastest way to establish your brand, and it becomes very powerful over time to rank almost anything when use properly.
If you want to do this yourself you can. Everything is free to do, you just have to take the time to go on all of these properties and create the accounts, optimize them with the correct business info, inter link them together, and then publish or post to them on a regular and constant basis.
We feel so strongly about a Branded Social media network that it is possibly the most import presence you should have online. So strongly that we strongly recommend every business should have a Branded Network over having a website! Actually having a website is becoming a thing of the past, and at most an online business card.
Now you are thinking to create and maintain a branded network is a lot of work, and you are right. But the rewards that you get from having one out way the down side.
