It seems like Google is rolling out CTA (Call-To-Action) button for service level business in the local knowledge panel. As shown in image, I have successfully implemented this and wanted to share how will you implement this latest feature and get the maximum benefit from GMB (Google My Business) Listing.
How it works?
Search for business’s name, as shown in the image Search for “Alasture” you will get this “Request a Quote” button on both Desktop as well as on mobile version. (Joy Hawkin was the first person to spot this feature)
How do you get this button?
You need to turn on messaging in your Google my business account.
Steps
Please note – it will take max. 24 hours to get approved and implemented.
Why we should not ignore this?
This button is really big and noticeable so Google clearly wants visitor to use this feature. You can view and respond messages from the Google My Business App. Visitors will receive message on Google map app.
Cons:
Google is doing great in terms of improving and engaging their service for their visitors. So in this case, visitors can now request quotes from businesses without even visiting the website. It can be done from Google service platform only. So, it’s not good for traffic.
But it’s a debatable topic that ultimate purpose of website is to generate leads (without traffic?) so is it bad sign if Google sends leads without traffic?
Let us inform if you face any difficulties while implementing “Request a Quote” button. Ask Alasture.
Would love to hear back from you if you have implemented this successfully. Share your thought.
In recent past, we had only one option to begin any business and it was creating brick-and-mortar identity. We had all traditional ways to create buzz in the market before and after the launch. Today we are living in mobile era where Internet accessibility is higher and cheaper. People have less inclination towards going outside or far away by burning costly fuel.
We Are in Online Era
Our new generation likes to do shopping, even for their daily needs, through their mobile devices or online ways they have. Therefore, besides brick establishments, we should focus on the online identity at first place and learn ways to do marketing on Internet or in mobile apps. There are many businesses in modern era, which are solely relying on the online identity like e-commerce and outsourcing industry. Therefore, for them website, web portal, and mobile apps are their shops in sum and everything revolving around them.
Selection Dilemma
Thus, they have acute question that which is the best marketing strategy for them to create buzz and achieve success for long and their choices restrict up to website and mobile app.
Many businesses have unique nature that leads the startups to rely solely on web identity while some have good favor on mobile apps while most of the modern businesses prefer to have both sort of identity: website as well as mobile app at a time.
Let’s check some pros and cons of both options in brief.
Website as Launch Marketing Strategy
Custom Web Development:
However, some startups require custom web development while many startups prefer to have their unique web identity for sake of branding and SEO advantages. This custom web development is a bit costly affair if you are going to do with responsive web designing team using the latest technologies and modern features to meet the high-end needs of your high-end audience.
Web Development Overheads:
Moreover, web development process and your interactions with web development company never end once your website is unveiled. You have to constantly update its technologies, features, and user experiences through regular maintenance and update programs.
Mobile App as Launch Marketing Strategy
The general perception of small and medium business regarding mobile app, as startup marketing strategy, is that it is only worthwhile for big enterprises or corporations. However, in reality it is not further from the truth.
Quick & Cheaper App Development:
Just like website builder and web development, mobile app development is becoming cheaper due to stiff competitions among the mobile application development companies and mobile app builder software are gaining ground in the market for small to medium level needs.
More Inclinations towards Mobile Apps:
Moreover, modern new generation, as well as tech-savvy old generation, audience is largely using mobile apps and mobile search options for their all sort of needs. Thus, in order to grab such vast audience, your mobile app, or responsive web design (at some extent) may help you, and come up with tons of futuristic opportunities. Another psychology of people is that only good and reputed companies can afford mobile apps so you can leverage your mobile presence in your favor.
