in this video I'm going to share with
you how to edit your Google my business
listing once you have gotten verified or
if you want to make any changes in the
future ok so I'm using an example client
here side click web design and marketing
right now are logged into the dashboard
so if you don't know how to get here how
you get here is you log into Gmail first
and then what you do is you go to
business google.com forward slash here's
the link forward slash manage and it'll
get you to this page or look like this
okay unless you have multiple locations
if you have multiple locations it'll
prompt you to select which location you
want to manage and then you'll come to
this screen ok so I want to show you a
couple things here and how you would
actually go about editing your Google my
business listing ok there's a couple
things here I'm gonna focus on just a
few of them and then a subsequent
trainings I'll go through all of it if
you're following along here in this
video series so first thing we'll do is
why should come in here to info and what
I what I want to do with this listing
today is actually do you want to change
the name of the business ok as a part of
you know my talks with this client so
what we're going to do here is you can
see this screen here this is the the
main areas that you can actually edit so
we're gonna do is we're going to come
here and here's the name we want to be
able to edit the name and we're actually
gonna just call a site click design
that's the name of the business moving
forward
so so you notice that it's clicked on
the edit icon there and I'm gonna apply
the changes ok so sometimes the changes
aren't instant right so it says pending
so Google's gonna come in here and it's
going to you know manually allow us to
chain manually verify the change ok
other thing down here is you'll see this
is the different selections that you can
choose for the type of business that you
are so because this client offers
multiple things you know making sure
that all of them are represented here so
they do website design and graphic
design video production internet
marketing and web hosting so if you
wanted to change what your business was
you could simply go in here and you
could change that so you have your
primary category ok and then you have
the subsequent additional categories as
well ok and if you want to just add them
subtract them you can do that here then
click apply for changes we have a menu
change
so we're gonna leave that here here's
where you would change the address if
you wanted to change the address okay
and then down here is the hours of your
business so this is a very important
piece you want to make sure that the
business hours are accurate if you want
to have split hours like I know a lot of
chiropractors have split hours you would
come in here and you would select the
initial hours from Monday and then do
add hours and you could do a second
split of hours you know maybe have a
long lunch break like a chiropractor
okay and you could do that here okay you
can open-close different sections that's
very easy
click apply when you're done okay and
then you know we have special hours
available here so you can actually come
in here and select special hours so you
can change those up here if you like if
there's certain days that you take off
or you want on or you're you know closed
for a friend's wedding you can change
that in here and update people ahead of
time this is very important if you have
a store that people are walking in and
out of okay in here you would change the
actual phone number okay and then in
here is where you would change the
website so this is very important you
want to make sure that the website is
always updated with the right place and
then the appointment URL if you're
somebody that does massage as an example
or you take bookings this would be a
really great place to put in your actual
calendar management application that way
people can go straight from your Google
my business listing and make
appointments okay attributes most people
are not going to to use this but one of
things that Google added recently is
this women-led attribute which is
amazing I think if you are a woman led
business you want to add that here if
you are that and in the future I think
Google is going to be adding more of
these attributes right now it's just the
women lead that is available okay in the
opening date you can play with this as
well you know maybe there's a year that
you found it you want people to know how
long you've been open and then in
subsequent videos I'm going to show you
about this photo section okay and so you
know the advanced information most
people aren't going to be actually using
this but that's that's really it so in
here is how you actually edit your your
google listing like I said in a future
trainings I'm gonna I'm going to show
you more about this photo section
is something new as well that you can
use to your advantage inside of Google
is this post's application so you can
actually do a post and then when people
find your business they're gonna
actually see in your Google business
listing that you're maybe running a
special offer that's what you would use
here for the post is a special offer or
maybe you have an event coming up you
want to put those things in here and
update update this regularly I think you
put a post up and it will last for about
14 days okay so this is a really great
stuff utilize it as long as you have
access to it and then like I said in
some of the future videos I'm gonna go
in deep detail on this photo section
because it's a very important area for
you to edit that will help you show up
for a lot more searches in your area and
also give your customer more of an idea
about what your business is about what
kind of products and services that you
offer so if you liked this video make
