In January 2021 Google quietly released a major Google My Business update for Auto Dealers!
Show your dealership’s auto inventory on Google
For those of you already in the know, your Google My Business Profile if managed properly should be a major traffic driver to your dealership.
Without leaving Google or clicking to any third party vendor websites, now car shoppers searching on Google can view all of your new and used vehicle inventory directly inside your Google Business profile, giving you the ability to promote every new and used vehicle you have advertised online.
How Can I Display My New And Used Vehicles on Google?
Much different than the current Google My Business products carousel, this is a inventory feed that displays your new and used VDPs right inside your Business profile while allowing the shopper to find the right vehicle and link to the full VDP on your website.
Why is it important to put your new and used cars on your Google My Business Profile?
More exposure of your new and used vehicles. It is no secret that driving traffic to your SRPs and VDPs has a huge influence on cars sold.
Putting your inventory on your Google Business profile gives you an edge over your competition as most of them do not even know this feature exists. In fact, many dealers do not even use the current marketing features inside their Google My Business profile.
