Findit Seminar Presentation 2014
Virtually everyone is carrying around a personal computer that is more powerfulthan the
computer that put a man on the moon.
• 1.1 billion users on Facebook
• 50+ million unique users on Trip Advisor
• 33+ million local reviews on Yelp
• 58 million tweets sent each day
• 925k new google+ users each day
Here’s why…
Because of the rapid growth of mobile device usage and the
integration of more social media platforms, information
can be shared to millions of consumers within a
click of a button.
 Gives you a chance to listen for revenue opportunities
 Find out what you’re doing right or wrong
 Indicates the health of your brand – positive or negative
 Increases brand awareness
 See what your competitors are doing
Why should you care?… “SOCIAL MENTIONS”
If you were prompted every time someone mentioned you on social meda…
 Reviews are beginning to crawl into search results
 Reviews can be extremely keyword rich
 Reviews are play a part in Google’s search ranking factors (amount, average rating, sources)
 Reviews now play a large part in how consumers choose a business to work with…
Could be a competitor….can you afford to not know what is being said about you?
Why should you care?… “REVIEWS”
Consumersnow have the ability to
post a review virtually
anywhere & share information
about your business & their own experiences in
an instant. Even while they are
still in your establishment…
Didn’t have this problem 8 years ago…
Findit Seminar Presentation 2014
1. Do you have any negative reviews?
2. Do you have any reviews at all?
Do you know where your business listings are?
Do you know what’s on them? Reviews?
Any of these websites or social media sites could have your business information listed on it.
Everywhere your information is listed online is a potential opportunity for a new customer to view it.
Bad reviews, wrong phone #’s, outdated information is a bad first impression for a new customer - bad SEO.
Web directory / local search ecosystem
But wait, I get reviews but why is the accuracy of my
business listings everywhere online important?
 Google wants to use businesses in their results that have multiple business listings.
 Google can see the number of times & places that your business is listed around the web.
 Google then cross references these listings for accuracy.
 Google is a robot – it simply identifies these listings, which is why these listings all need to
be exactly the same.
 When you have an incorrect business listing on the web, Google doesn’t know what is accurate
and what isn’t? So instead of taking the risk, Google may not use those business listings at all.
 Many online directories use listings from other major websites so if one major website directory listing
incorrect it can populate several other incorrect listings increasing the chance that
consumers looking for your business get the wrong information. – loss of potential sale
https://support.google.com/places/answer/148047?hl=en#accurate
Search is not just about being “at the top” of
Google…it must now include popular opinion! -
think of your last vacation…
Google & Siri can even rank by
REVIEWS &
ACCURATE
INFORMATION
So are you being proactive & asking these questions?
 Do you know what customers are saying about your business?
Do you know where things are being said about your business?
 Is the information about your business accurate & consistent?
 What makes you stand out to new customers vs. your competitors?
 How do you keep those new customers?
 How do you grow relationships with those customers?
Where do I start?
So how can you grow your business listing’s visibility?

son’s soccer practice to end
Green Onion was recommended to Jamie
by a friend…except she can’t quite
remember the name…
Jamie resorted to Googling the phrase
“landscaping” but none of the businesses
listed rang a bell….
Jay’s business Green Onion Landscaping is NOT
VISIBLE online and he may have just lost a
potential client to his competitor…

  • 11. But wait, I get reviews but why is the accuracy of my business listings everywhere online important?  Google wants to use businesses in their results that have multiple business listings.  Google can see the number of times & places that your business is listed around the web.  Google then cross references these listings for accuracy.  Google is a robot – it simply identifies these listings, which is why these listings all need to be exactly the same.  When you have an incorrect business listing on the web, Google doesn’t know what is accurate and what isn’t? So instead of taking the risk, Google may not use those business listings at all.  Many online directories use listings from other major websites so if one major website directory listing incorrect it can populate several other incorrect listings increasing the chance that consumers looking for your business get the wrong information. – loss of potential sale
