Here are five tech parties that took place last week and how their businesses work. Did you miss them?
1 – Google offers companies loose classified ads on Google Maps.
Google announced last week that at the end of September, advertisers using Google My Business will no longer have to pay for pins, calls, clicks, or lose sales as a result of ads. The generation giant recently brought enhanced pin service to allow corporations to stand out on Maplaystation based on an offer, an explicit service, while specifying whether to give pieces such as delivery, streetaspect collection, etc. The boosted pin feature is available free of charge in an effort to support small businesses that are reopening after months of pandemic stagnation.

Why for your business:
I love not only loose things, but encourage business owners to exploit Google My Business. The service itself is loose and incredibly critical for small businesses to turn directly to the search engine giant and enjoy selling their businesses on Maps. I propose that you not only make the most of this offer, but invest more than an hour on a social network capable of getting the settings of your Google My Business site and then long-term tracking.
2 – Launch of Visa SMB Center with 20 members, PayPal, Yelp and Freshbooks.
Visa has brought a new online center for small businesses to help homeowners grow their businesses and strengthen the relationship station with their customers. The resource, called Visa Small Business Hub, will focus on providing business owners with the resources and wisdom to start, expand and run a business digitally. The centre, which has recently been held in 20 countries, is able to adapt to the purposes of small businesses in any of these regions. Visa aims to cover the loss of machinery and adequate education that businesses and homeowners need. (Source: Pymnts)
Why for your business:
Every few years, a broad corporate lopass launches something like this… then dies slowly. There are exceptions, however. I hope that the Visa sellers who proposed this speculation will pass it directly to a content team with long-term plans and resources for this fairly favorable initiative. If done in the right way and with the right commitment, it could be an overly prudent resource for small businesses. Let’s be back in a year, okay?
3 – Instagram rated ads can now be created without being connected to a Facebo ad account.
Why for your business:
Small business owners looking to make a call on Instagram face an obstacle: they should also be on Facebook. But no more. If you were avoiding Instagram, this is the requirement, it’s something to review. Instagram reaches more than a hundred million users and continues to grow. This is the most powerful friend, too wise place to advertise and draw attention to your business.
4 – Chrome will soon have less memory in Windows 10.
I was a former senior manager at KPMG and since 1994 the owner of the Marks Group PC, a 10-person customer relationship management consulting firm based outside Philadelphia. I’ve written six small-business management books, most recently “The Manufacturer’s Book of Lists” and “In God We Trust, Everyone Else Pays Cash: Simple Lessons From Smart Business People.” Besides Forbes, I formerly wrote for The Washington Post and the New York Times and now write regularly for The Guardian, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Inc., Magazine, Entrepreneur Magazine and Fox Business. I make no compensation from the number of people who read what I write.
