Creating Your Google Business Profile
The first step is to create your Google Business profile. This is a free and easy way to put your business on Google Maps and make it discoverable by potential customers who are searching for businesses like yours. To create your profile, simply go to business.google.com and click “Create my free listing.”
Once you’ve created your listing, add as much information as possible about your business, including photos, hours of operation, contact information, and services offered. The more information you can provide, the easier it will be for customers to find you and do business with you.
Using Your $500 Credit to Create Ads
Now that you’ve got your business profile set up, it’s time to put your $500 credit to good use! Creating ads on Google is a great way to reach new customers who are looking for businesses like yours. And with your $500 credit, you can get started without having to spend any money out of pocket.
- Simply go to google.com/ads and click “Create your first ad.”
- Click the “Claim your Credit.”
- Set up the Ads – Follow the prompts to select a type of ad (text, display, video, or shopping), enter your website URL, choose your target location, and set your budget and etc.
- Once you’ve done all that, you’re ready to launch your ad campaign! Just remember that you’ll need to keep an eye on your spend so that you don’t go over budget and end up paying for clicks yourself. But other than that, just sit back and watch the leads (and customers!) come rolling in.
Advertising on Google is a great way to reach new customers and grow your business. And with your free $500 credit, there’s no reason not to give it a try!
