Upcoming Location Protocal

[jrobbins]

Wondering is there a best practice for adding a new location opening (in this case) in November of this year?

Yes! I was just talking about this with my team today. These are some rough notes I wrote down:

Create a Google Business Profile for your new business/location BEFORE you open.
People are building buzz on instagram and other socials before opening, but they forget about google
Make your business Googleable in advance!
When people Google your new business they should find your knowledge panel
It's another way to build buzz and excitement

• Set the opening date
• Mark he business as temporary closed
• add Photos
• add Posts
• Fill out all the details and fully optimize
• GET REVIEWS BEFORE YOU EVEN OPEN

You'll hit the ground running the day you open and have a huge head start towards building your rankings

Darren, One issue is it will want a video as part of the verification. It is under contraction and there is nothing to provide as of yet. What is the work around?
