Google Local Business Center

Another application of Google Maps is the Google Local Business Center. With this function customers are able to find ones' business when they are searching for specific information for a certain area. The advertisement is free and one is able to post their address, hours of business, a picture of their products or a picture of their store front. Whether one has a single business or multiple stores, they can all be managed from one account. A listing can be updated at anytime and the change will take affect in a few weeks. At my place of employment, the office manager listed our business today. The proces was very easy and was not time consuming. Once the listing is complete the location of ones' business is marked and made easily accessible for potential customers.

Google Maps

Google maps is a service provided by google for logistics purposes. It has many benefits and applications to be taken advatage of. Part of my job at my company is coordinating deliveries(getting our product to the customer the most efficient way possible). With fuel prices still relatively high, the shortest route to a job as possible saves the company money which helps in a stagnate economy. Google maps are very current and have even the new subdivisions that are being developed now. It is very important at my job to be able to get the customer the product they want when they want it.
