Last summer we started seeing more & more video verifications.
Now it's supremely rare to see a postcard option.
Have you purchased google maps from us and now need to verify ? This isnt something we have set, it googles security process so only valid companys are listed, sounds great yep but it makes it tricky to get listed. Please follow all instructions in the text below and the 3 videos, then creat a video using your mobile device, send me that video on whatsapp. try to make it around 30-40 secs long.
PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BELOW
These tips might help:
- Before you shoot your video, plan out what you are going to show, who will be in it, and who will record it..
- If you’re an Service area business, show unlocking your branded vehicle to show the tools you use to perform your work (branded truck, ladders, equipment) and show any unique software you use to run your business such as a quote creator or billing system
- you can show your team performing a job at a customer’s site using the tools-of-the-trade
- If you operate out of your home, show things to prove your address (street signs, street number on house, mailbox)
- Show close-ups of business licenses, SOS docs, LLC or incorporation docs, or any other official documents that prove your company’s name and address; just zoom in on the docs so Google can see the business name and address match what’s on your Google Business Profile
- Show anything with your company address on or details on.
As spammy listings have begun to shrink, we've noticed our clients (& us!) becoming comfortable with this process.
