11 July 2008 Categories: SEO

The Internet can be a treasure trove of opportunities for small business owners, if you just know where to look. For example, did you know that Google offers the option of creating a marketing coupon for your business listing on Google Maps ? Google Maps has ballooned in popularity over the last few years, but surprisingly few businesses are taking advantage of this free, easy to use, but still little-known marketing tool.

Setting up a Google coupon is simplicity itself. You just fill in the boxes with the relevant information on the coupon template, come up with a snappy, enticing title, and a sub-heading, and click. A printable coupon will appear by the listing for your business. You can edit or delete your coupons easily at any time.

Here are some examples of customer-attracting coupon titles for various businesses:
