“Four out of five consumers use search engines to find local information nearby, yet only 37% of businesses have claimed their listing on a search engine,” says Soo Young Kim, Head of Small Business Engagement at Google. “Small businesses are the engine of local economies and when they flourish, their communities do as well.”
This program is designed to empower communities to support their local businesses and encourage them to get on the map using BBB and Google. Local businesses keep our communities strong; when we help them succeed online, they make our communities even stronger.
