If you’re like many business owners, you are seeking ways to get new customers; then you’re going to find this early Christmas gift from under the Google Places tree to be a good one.
Google Places Check In Deals Are Here
Recently it was announced that Google was preparing to let businesses offer check-in deals via Google Places. And now that the program has been released for those using Google Maps for Mobile on Android, more details on how it all works are available.
In a story published today in Google Watch it was reported that “a business that chooses to distribute a Google Offer can request that users check in from Google Maps for Mobile after signing into Google+.”
Users can choose to share their check-in publicly or with some of their circles, which helps spread the word about businesses on Google+. Users may also keep their check-in private.
Google Places Offer’s Huge Benefits to Small Businesses
Google is targeting restaurants, cafes, shops and gyms for this and recommends businesses that don’t require patrons to frequent their establishment to ask their customers to check in. This is a fantastic benefit for businesses on Google Places with a social media marketing strategy.
