=> need help getting found on Google?

A Cool Idea for Getting Found on Google...

Hey,

Have you heard of the new Google Q&A section on your Google My Business listing that appears on searches?

It’s your opportunity to add an FAQ about your business right in the search!

If you’ve claimed your Google local business listing, it’s there. If not, you should claim it now, because it will help with your SEO (search engine optimization). In other words, getting found in Google searches.

There's a new thread in the DIY Marketing Support Facebook group that might interest you. It is about how we can help each other in developing the Google Q&A sections on our Google listings. There is an infographic to show how it works.

Bottom line: It doesn't cost a cent, and can help get your business noticed on Google. Look for the DIY Google Boosters banner thread to see all the details.

Shout out of thanks to DIYer Dotty Scott for suggesting this!

How to Find Videos of our Marketing Classes

Q: I can't attend this month's marketing webinar. Will there be a recording?

A: YES. You can download the audio, video, handout(s) and slides of any webinar within 24 hours of the meeting.

Q: Where can I find the video of a recent marketing webinar?

A: There are dozens of classes for you in the Marketing Classes area of the membersite. After each webinar, I post direct links to the webinar download page in our Facebook group. I also post a direct link in the News blog on the DIY website.

You don't have to use the search function or wander around. Either use the direct links, or go to the Marketing Classes section. There is a full listing of recent classes with links. Look there: Marketing Classes

Q: I'm a DIY standard member. How much does it cost to attend the monthly webinar?

A: It costs NOTHING. The monthly webinar on the first Thursday is included in your membership. Actually, in ALL memberships.

Q: I'm trying to register for the monthly marketing webinar but it says I have to pay $25. I thought it was included in my membership?

A: It IS included. You must be logged in to the membersite for the system to recognize you as a member. You can tell that you're logged in when your name appears under Ronnie's photo in the website banner.

Hearing the same things in different ways allows the information to integrate more fully. After listening to you, I am ever more understanding of the dance between listening and sharing. When you speak, there is the intertwining of your years of experience. I am gradually learning the various pieces that you put together so skillfully and gracefully. Then you top it off with your powerful strength of ideation." ~ Caron MacLane, Circle Coach & Consultant, www.CaronCircleCC.com
