Google Uncle's Aid for SMEs

It has been proved that
Small Business Enterprises are one of the most important assets to
fight recession and turn down economic slumps. Apart from that, it is
also the catalyst which works as the power booster in growth of
developing countries. Hence, every measure is done in manner to aid
SMEs in flourishing more. The latest in the queue of Small Business
Help is Google's new tool which is aimed to convert visitors into
online shoppers/buyers.
Named 'Local Shopping,' this tool would offer the
the shots of available in-store products in local shops while
visitor/shoppers would search for that particular product. However,
Google has already started showing the in-store goods on its search
page since march, after signing deals with larger retail groups such
as Sears and Best Buy but from now on, this tool will be customized
to show the listing of products availability in local shops. This is
supposed to be a great idea in development of Small Scale
Organizations.
After getting the news,
Entrepreneurs are also exited for the same. Many of SME owners
welcomed it and praised Google for bringing such innovative tool to
boost Small Business Enterprises for better. It is taken as a measure
that would help business houses in being exposed to a larger group of
clientèle. Nonetheless, for those who are not much aware of
online listing of products, it sounded a little Greek.
To
encourage entrepreneurs in getting their product listed on search
pages, Google has made a special administrative process, keeping it
in a simpler mode. If eligible, you can get your product listed in
five easy steps. One of the prerequisites of getting your product
listed in Google's Local shopping is good product search quality with
unique product identifiers. The next criterion of Local shopping
listing includes listing of your store on Google Places which is done
after proper verification. After completing these easier processes,
you may easily show your products to Google searchers, which is
certainly going to be a revolutionary step in promotion of your
business.
Although, Google is not the first one to give special exposure to local business inventory, as Milo Inc. has already done it in past(listing around 50,000 stores) and turned it into huge success but Google's expanded reach to all across the world is going to give an unparalleled boom to Small Business Development.
