Let us provide a comprehensive report on what it takes to get and optimize your online presence
What's Google My Business?
Conquer Local Search: Why Your Business Needs a Google My Business Profile
In today’s digital world, where potential customers are just a Google search away, online presence is crucial for any small business. But with so many platforms vying for your attention, it can be overwhelming to know where to start.
Enter Google My Business (GMB).**
Think of GMB as your digital storefront on Google. It’s a **free** tool that allows you to manage how your business appears in Google Search and Maps, putting your business right at the fingertips of local customers searching for what you offer.
Here’s why a GMB presence is essential for your small business:
Increased Visibility:When someone searches for businesses like yours in their area, a well-optimized GMB profile increases your chances of appearing in the coveted local search results, also known as the “Map Pack.” This prime real estate can drive significant traffic to your website or physical location.
* **Boost Local SEO:** GMB plays a vital role in local SEO (Search Engine Optimization). By providing accurate and complete information about your business, you improve your chances of ranking higher in local search results, making it easier for potential customers to find you online.
* **Build Trust and Credibility:** A GMB profile allows you to showcase essential details like your address, phone number, website, photos, and customer reviews. This transparency builds trust and credibility with potential customers, making them more likely to choose you over the competition.
* **Engage with Customers:** GMB allows you to directly interact with your customers. You can respond to reviews, answer questions, and even post updates and special offers, fostering a sense of community and loyalty.
* **Free Marketing & Insights:** GMB offers a variety of free marketing tools, like creating posts about your business and showcasing special offers. You also gain valuable insights into how customers are finding and interacting with your profile, helping you refine your online strategy.
**As a business expert, Scananew can help you:**
* **Claim and optimize your GMB profile:** Ensure your listing is accurate, complete, and includes high-quality photos and engaging descriptions.
* **Manage your online presence:** Respond to reviews, answer questions, and keep your profile updated with the latest information.
* **Develop a local SEO strategy:** Leverage GMB to improve your local search ranking and attract more qualified leads.
**Don’t underestimate the power of an effective tool like Google My Business. By claiming and optimizing your profile, you can take control of your online presence, connect with local customers, and watch your small business thrive in the digital age.**
Your Business Is Waiting To Be Claimed
## The Looming Shadow: Unclaimed Businesses and the Revenue Graveyard
Imagine a business, bustling with potential, suddenly going dark. Not due to a bad investment or shifting market trends, but because it simply vanished online. This, my friends, is the chilling reality of **unclaimed businesses** – a silent killer of online visibility and a potential revenue graveyard for unsuspecting businesses.
An unclaimed business on platforms like Google My Business (GMB) is like a ghost town in the digital landscape. It exists, but it’s invisible to potential customers. This invisibility translates to **lost revenue**, a silent drain on a business’s potential.
Here’s how the disaster unfolds:
* **Customers Can’t Find You:** When a business remains unclaimed on GMB, it doesn’t show up in local search results. This means potential customers searching for your products or services simply won’t find you, **leading them straight to your competitors**.
* **Reviews Gather Dust:** Positive reviews are gold in the digital age, building trust and attracting new customers. But with an unclaimed GMB profile, **valuable reviews go unseen**, diminishing the social proof that could convert hesitant customers.
* **Engagement Goes Flat:** Unclaimed profiles lack the ability to interact with customers. You can’t respond to inquiries, address concerns, or showcase special offers. This **lack of engagement** creates a stagnant online presence, failing to capture the attention of potential customers in a dynamic online environment.
The cumulative effect of these factors is **lost revenue**. Studies suggest that businesses with claimed and optimized GMB profiles see a **significant increase in website visits, phone calls, and foot traffic**, compared to their unclaimed counterparts.
**The good news?** This disaster is entirely preventable. By claiming and optimizing your GMB profile, you unlock a treasure trove of benefits:
* **Increased visibility in local search results**
* **Enhanced trust and credibility through customer reviews**
* **Direct engagement with potential customers**
* **Free marketing tools and valuable customer insights**
Don’t let your business become another statistic in the **revenue graveyard** of unclaimed profiles. Take control of your online presence and **claim your rightful place in the digital marketplace**. By doing so, you’ll not only avoid the disaster of lost revenue but pave the way for a thriving online presence that attracts customers and fuels your business growth.
**Ready to get started? Contact Scananew today we will let you know exactly where your business profile stands and what your GMB needs are to unlock the potential of local search for your business!**

IT'S Time For Businesses To Adapt
How Going Virtual Can Help Your Business Survive and Thrive in the Post-Pandemic Economy
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the global economy and forced many businesses to close their doors or adapt to new challenges. While some sectors have suffered greatly, others have found new opportunities and ways to grow by going virtual. In this blog post, we’ll explore how businesses can benefit from going virtual and using innovative tools like 360-degree virtual tours to showcase their products and services.
The Rise of E-commerce and Online Platforms
One of the most noticeable trends during the pandemic lockdowns was the surge in e-commerce and online platforms. Global e-commerce sales grew by 27.6% in 2020, reaching $4.28 trillion. Some of the major players that experienced significant growth were Amazon and eBay, which leveraged their technological capabilities and large customer base to expand their market share and operational efficiency.
Amazon outpaced its direct competitors, with a notable increase in profits and net sales. The company reported a 38% increase in net sales in 2020, reaching $386.1 billion, and a 84% increase in net income, reaching $21.3 billion. Amazon also improved its delivery speed and customer service, as well as diversified its product offerings and services, such as cloud computing, streaming, and online advertising.
eBay helped boost small businesses through its marketplace, with a 34% jump in U.S. eBay small businesses. The company also introduced new features and tools to enhance the seller and buyer experience, such as image-based search, augmented reality, and authentication services. eBay also partnered with UPS to offer discounted shipping rates and faster delivery options to its sellers.
These examples show how e-commerce and online platforms can help businesses adapt to the changing consumer behavior and preferences, as well as provide a more convenient and accessible shopping experience.
The Benefits of 360-degree Virtual Tours
Another powerful tool that can help businesses stand out and engage their customers is the 360-degree virtual tour. This immersive technology allows businesses to showcase their physical spaces, products, or services in a way that captivates audiences and drives real results.
A 360-degree virtual tour is a multimedia presentation that allows viewers to explore a space, product, or environment as if they were physically present. These tours typically consist of a series of interconnected panoramic images, creating a seamless and interactive experience. Viewers can navigate through the tour, zoom in on details, and even interact with elements within the virtual space.
Some of the benefits of integrating a 360-degree virtual tour into your business strategy are:
- Enhanced customer engagement: Virtual tours are visually engaging and interactive, making them an ideal tool for capturing the attention of potential customers. Whether you’re showcasing a stunning hotel lobby, a retail showroom, or a real estate property, the immersive nature of these tours draws viewers in and encourages them to explore further. Statistics show that websites with virtual tours tend to have higher user engagement and longer average visit durations.
- Boosted conversion rates: Virtual tours can also influence purchase decisions and boost conversion rates. Virtual tours provide potential customers with a comprehensive view of what you have to offer, as well as a more personalized and interactive experience. According to a study by Google, listings with virtual tours are twice as likely to generate interest and inquiries.
- Improved online visibility and trustworthiness: Virtual tours can also help you improve your online presence and reputation. By adding virtual tours to your website and online platforms, such as Google Maps and social media, you can increase your exposure and reach, as well as enhance your SEO ranking. Virtual tours can also help you build trust and credibility with your customers, as they can see for themselves the quality and authenticity of your products and services.
