Step 3: Update Operational and Safety Information
- Regularly update attributes that describe your operational hours, availability, and health & safety measures (important in current times).
Step 4: Incorporate Client Feedback and Amenities
- Use feedback from clients to refine your attributes. Include amenities and features that enhance client experience (e.g., “Free Parking,” “Client Lounge”).
Step 5: Regular Review and Adjustment
- Continually monitor your GBP insights to understand the impact of your attributes. Adjust as needed based on client interactions, feedback, and changes in your business or the real estate market.
This condensed process ensures a focused approach to effectively manage and enhance your Google Business Profile, making it more appealing and relevant to potential clients.
