Videos in Google My Business

Update alert! Google is always adding new features, and recently they’ve made a significant change to Google My Business: you can now upload video to your local search listing.

This is a great opportunity to share videos showcasing your business for customers to learn more about you and your products or services. Customers can even upload videos of your business (don't worry; if it's unrelated or inappropriate, you can flag it).
