Google's map listing service has been growing exceptionally fast and helping consumers find the businesses they want to do business with. This service is free and is another great way to help your business be found.

1. Go to Google.com/places and if you don't have a Google account quickly sign up for free for one (simply signing up for an email account). If you don't plan on using this email account go to the top settings area in Gmail and have it forward emails to an active address you use regularly. Now back in Google Places click on "Add a New Business" Follow the prompts on page one and click next.

2. This next page allows you to share more information about your business. You can share your hours of operation, if your business is open to the public to visit, payment options for your service, add photos, video, brands you carry and much more.

3. Click Submit and you'll be brought to a page to verify how you'd like to validate your listing with Google. You can do this by either them mailing you a post card that takes 1-3 weeks to receive or by providing a phone number for them to call to check. Click Finish

4. Once you receive the phone call your account is verified and live. If you get a postcard follow the directions to verify the account with your pin number.

5. Now your account is live and you can go to list more information or offer unique coupons to Google visitors only.

Thanks.
