Does anyone have experience with Google Business Websites? Is there any down side? We already have a website with individual webpages for each location. What do you suppose happens if we add a Google Website? Of course I don't want to monkey with what we have without some more info. Is it a...
I have a client who has counter seasonal businesses at the same physical location. Their bread and butter is snow ski rentals (Nov - April). Off season service is bicycle rentals (Jun- August).
The question is how to effectively promote the bicycle rentals in the summer. We absolutely cannot...
I believe it is available via the API. The Google should have some answers. Look here:

Thanks James. We're not planning to invest time in G+. Really I'm just trying to clean house a bit and hoping for a simple solution. It looks like the best course is to leave it as is. Thanks!
Thanks Colan. There are 5 locations, each with their own GMB, reviews etc. What I need is a G+ brand page, not a location. There is a personal page that is current acting as the brand page, which is not ideal. The brand is not a male born in 1973 ;-) I assumed that we can't change a personal...
I have a client whose personal G+ profile is serving as the business profile. Is there any way to change the profile type? It has a few followers that I don't want to lose. Also, the GMB locations are under the same profile. What's the best course of action? Does it even matter? -- Thanks!

If that doesn't go anywhere it gets harder. I would start with a side by side list of...

I don't think there is anyway to claim/verify your business. As you have seen, the whole thing is pretty obtuse.
Here does have an editor similar to Google Mapmaker. We've played with it a bit with mixed results. I can't recall tbe url but...
First build out your new profile thoroughly. We find the claimed and robust profile usually wins. The old profile won't go away but it will generally stop displaying in search. You'll still be able to see it because you have the url, but searchers won't. Eventually...
We have had good success...
It does appear that there is little indexable content. The business names in the map search results are, but I'm not finding more than that.
Also, I have not been able to find any listings that are owner verified. Might those be displayed differently?
Interestingly, I can see some Yelp...
Phil - Thanks for digging into this. This seems to be the crux of the answer, "Only qualifying American Express? Card accepting small businesses appear on the map."
SO, if a business accepts AmEx, I would think this is a great citation.
Here is a functioning map:
