Two Separate GBPs for Two Different Services

[Matt Chauhan]

One of our clients runs a restoration and construction business in Utah. They have two separate departments, one for construction and one for restoration services. Both departments run from the same building and address. Would creating two different GBPs for these two departments be against Google's guidelines? According to Google's guidelines, what is the best way to make the GBPs for these two services? We don't want to go against Google's guidelines.

Google does have a provision for departments within the same business in their Guidelines here: Guidelines for representing your business on Google - Google Business Profile Help

How about the concerns on similar address?

 

[Jannell Howell]

The Guidelines only specify this: Typically such departments have a separate customer entrance and should each have distinct categories.


So, the same address is ok, but different categories is key.
