How Google Plus Local Pages Impact Your Business - Rod Watson from Watson Marketing Solutions, LLC discusses how Google+ Local Business Pages can positively impact your business and lead to increased sales and more profits.
Google Places has recently merged with Google Plus, creating a new local listing system called Google Plus Local (or Google+ Local). Now, businesses will be required to have a Google Plus account in order to have a local business listing with them.
In addition, Google has gotten rid of the 5-star customer review system in exchange for a more detailed scoring system, which will impact how your customer reviews are rated.
While this change presents even more opportunities for your local business to generate new customers, it could be very confusing for you as there are some major differences between the two systems.

You know that word of mouth is the most effective form of marketing. 70% of your customers trust a recommendation from a friend, but only 10% trust advertising.
For years marketers have tried to get their customers to recommend their products and services with little success….now Shuttlerock has broken through with an effective solution.
Shuttlerock is the new way to get your customers to actively promote your business to their friends. It’s the global leader in ‘crowd marketing’.
We’ve developed a platform that is embedded onto your website. It provides incentives for customers to upload photos onto your website and to share with their friends using social networks. Importantly you control and own the content on your site.
So why do you need Shuttlerock?
You will get more people to your website AND they will come with an endorsement because their friends sent them there.
It’s better than traditional advertising because that endorsement creates visitors who are more inclined to trust you (because their friend bought from you).
More qualified visitors and more time on your site leads to more conversions.
Shuttlerock also helps drive your search engine rankings with fresh content and more social activity.
And it creates a high quality photo gallery containing real images from your customers - not only is it more authentic it also looks fantastic and it allows for way more engagement.
Finally you will be able to gather your customers and friends email addresses which has up until now been challenging.

Why should your business bother using Google+ Local at all? Small and mid-sized businesses typically have few extra resources, so they are very protective over them. What’s more, people have become cynical (justifiably) about over-hyped, fly-by-night marketing gimmicks.
Last week Google announced significant changes to its Local product with the creation of Google+ Local. STEAK has completed an in-depth analysis of Google+ Local that highlights the changes, opportunities and potential future scenarios.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
