Google Offers

[Ashwin]

Google seems to have launched this new curiosity called Google Offers:
Create offers in minutes and reach customers on Google Maps with Google Offers

Just wondering if any of you have tried this with your clients and what you think about it.

Interesting. From a quick glance, it looks like they are finally monetizing the free Google Offers that was introduced some time ago...

It seems to be a hybrid between Yelp Deals and Signpost (which is funded by Google Ventures).

They plan on charging for every coupon "saved" as opposed to redemption.

Just set one up for a client, interested to see how this works.

Thanks for sharing Ashwin!

I saw yesterday but didn't have time to post.

Here is Mike's detailed post with screen shots of setting one up for his client.

Stefano,

Any results yet from the campaign you set up for the client?

Nothing to report just yet.
