    Thank you so much for this. It isn't easy to find instructions like this for home-based businesses; this is great! Would you mind answering a quick question? My business's legal name is my first initial, last name +Enterprises, Inc. I am a business coach and I publically use my first/last name with the word " Coaching" after it. Do I have to use the legal name for my listing? It seems more search-friendly to use my public profile name. Thank you!

      Great question! I can’t find the link to Google’s guidelines offhand, but generally speaking, you have 3 options:
      1. Your legal business name (boring)
      2. A DBA name
      3. A name you use consistently in your branding (i.e., logo or business card)
      If you don’t have “coaching” in your branding yet, that *could* be considered “keyword stuffing,” which is a no no. Easy fix? Add it! Go to Canva and add Coaching to your logo and you’ll be 100% legit 😊
      Thanks for the kind words and let me know if you have anymore GBP questions 🙏

    One question, went you showed your tax paper? Did you cover the ien number for them not to see or they need to see the information?
    Thank you for your reply

      I would recommend showing them everything. I blurred it because it's a public-facing video. Let's face it, Google has all our information anyway 😆

    How did you contact Google? I’ve done all the steps you mentioned and still can’t get verified! Haven’t been able to find a number to contact google. It’s been two months now! I’m an independent Notary Public / Notary Signing Agent that doesn’t have a storefront. I travel to my clients. Last week was my last video attempt. I was told by their system that verification would take up to 5 days which was 8 days ago and nothing!

      I’d recommend emailing me: sam@thencandesigns.com
      They won’t approve you if you have a setting wrong (or if you’re violating a rule - whether it’s on purpose or not).

      Did you ever get this resolved, Anthony?

      @@thencandesignsNo. Made the video. It was accepted. Then nothing. Amazing that Google gives you absolutely ZERO feedback on your submission!

      @@anthonyscott5134, yeah, it can be pretty frustrating. I'm not sure if this link will work, but this is how you reach out to them directly: support.google.com/business/gethelp?sjid=11068159744650567897-NC
      I'm curious what your GBP panel looks like? Sometimes there's a clue as to what you need to do next. Do you mind sending a screenshot? You can't attach it here, but you can email it to me. My email's a couple comments up.
