Google Business custom feature

Easily increase your business visibility on the Internet via the Google My Business feature. It does not cost anything but increases visibility in search as well as makes your business visible on Google maps.

How to use

1. Enable this custom feature on your Custom Features page.

2. Navigate to Settings to create Google Business account if you do not have one yet, or connect already existing Google Business account.

3. Give the necessary permissions so that it will be possible to see and edit your location(s) in SimplyBook.me.

4. If you already have some locations in Google Business you will be able to see them on the left side of the page.

5. Just click on one of them if you need to make some edits and enable the option Update address in the profile, make the necessary changes and re-save the location for the information to be updated on Google side

or choose + option to add a new business address.

6. After you have added the address, click on Save and Close and you will have the possibility to proceed to the business location verification on Google side(it may take some time).

You can also close the pop-up and get back to the verification step later(there will be Verify now button for each saved and synced business location).

As soon as your location is verified by Google(you will see the verification process steps while following Google instuctions) your business will appear in search and on Google Maps.

7. When you save the location the following information is passed to Google about your company:

• business location title;
• company working hours;
• company phone number;
• booking site link;
• business category(as Google categories differ the best matching one will be found).

Please note, if you have changed some of these details in your SimplyBook.me account you will need to re-save the business location in Google Business feature settings for the details to be updated on Google side.

8. You can also edit your business location details on Google side if necessary. Simply click on Edit on GMB button at the top(appears for saved and synced locations).

9. If some location(s) become not relevant for your business anymore you can easily delete them in this feature settings. Just click on Delete on GMB option.
