Flexible for different types of offers<\/h3><p>What\u2019s really great about offer posts is that they\u2019re extremely flexible. It doesn\u2019t have to strictly be sales or discounts. If you\u2019re a place of worship and you\u2019d like to share a free online pamphlet that serves as a \u201cpass\u201d to a community event, you can create an offer with those details. If you\u2019re a grocery and you have monthly themed specials that include a freebie, that\u2019s something you can do too.<\/p><h3>2. Attracts customers with an intent to purchase<\/h3><p>Offer posts invite customers to visit your physical location and buy from you or use your services, especially with a deal just for them. This does increase foot traffic, piques more interest, and drives more sales.<\/p><h3>3. Improves customer experience and satisfaction<\/h3><p>You\u2019d always want your customers to give you a 4 or 5-star rating and a positive review, and offer posts, because they add value to your business by providing value to the customer, are a great way to make them happy during each visit. Beyond the special deals, the freebies and the discounts, you\u2019ll get a loyal following because customers will know that you appreciate them.<\/p><p>So what are you waiting for? Publish those free products and services, discounts and all kinds of offers with Google Business Profile!<\/p><h2>How to create an offer post using Google Business Profile<\/h2><p>To create an offer post, make sure you\u2019re logged in to the Google Account associated with your Profile. When you\u2019re in, do the following steps:<\/p><ol><li>Search for your business name. On top of the organic search results, scroll through the carousel until you see\u00a0<strong>\u201cCreate an offer\u201d<\/strong>. Click that and another tab will direct you to the Create Offer Post section.<\/li><li>Upload a photo or video that summarises your offer post.<\/li><li>Write your offer title and include start and end dates. In case you want to be more specific, add start and end times too.<\/li><li>While it\u2019s optional to add more details, we encourage you to include other points or factors so your customers know what to expect.
