Here are the ones you should focus on for your growing business.
GMB Management
Google My Business (GMB) is a free tool from Google that lets you create a profile to promote your business. It may feature images, products and services, questions and answers, reviews, and even weekly posts showcasing what’s going on with your company. With active GMB management, you can be sure that your GMB is providing current and potential customers with accurate, timely information to guide them through your doors. You may also see a boost in your placement in Maps search results on Google as you invest more effort into your GMB profile.
