Some good advice in the infographic below from SKADEEDLE. As usual some of the points seem obvious but so many companies get this wrong. Email marketing is still a fantastic tool but as the online landscape changes companies need to adapt more and more to the needs of their audience.

Where did we find this infographic? On Pinterest of course, originally from SOBER ADVERTISING. Some good points about image size and subject matter, I wouldn’t worry too much abut when to pin but it is good to get into a routine to help with consistency. A few of the points seem a bit obvious but don’t underestimate the value of doing the basics correctly.

Have you ever come across a business on Google Maps / Street View that has an orange dot next to it? The dot signifies that the business is using GOOGLE BUSINESS PHOTOS. If you place the Street View icon over the dot you will be transported inside the business.

The service is available to all businesses, you do have to pay for a ‘Trusted Photographer’ as Google have certain requirements that need to be met in order for them to be able to upload and use the images but they provide a list of people in your area. Have a look at the image below, you can see that the restaurant has a virtual tour available to potential customers built into the map and you can spin round just like with Street View. The images also appear in search results and within other Google products.

Pop on over to GOOGLE BUSINESS PHOTOS to learn more.
