Adding Custom Services to GMB

[rickvidallon]

Joy Hawkins posted in here that Google has added, for some industries, new service options that these businesses can choose. (plumbers, music schools, piano instructors, and more.

I tried doing this in my listing; but when I click save settings I get an error meesage 'Something went wrong, please try again later'.

Has anyone tried this successfully with their GMB. And if successful, let me know your type of business. Thanks Rick

Hey Rick,

That type of error usually resolves itself in 24 or 48 hours. If you're still experiencing this after I'd suggest posting at the Google M Business Forum and if you want to share a link to your post here I'd be happy to share it with Google on your behalf.

@rickvidallon can you upload the video to Google Drive for me and set the sharing setting so anyone can view?

Hi Colan,
Here it the link. I removed (https://) for fear it might auto-display in my post.

Thanks @rickvidallon Google will likely ask me for your GMB listing ID. Can you DM that to me? Just copy/paste the URL you see when logged into your GMB dashboard.

Thanks
