Official Google Blog
Since getting online,
Green Mountain Bee Farm
in Fairfax, Vt. experienced a 5x increase in sales, and
Christine Fitzpatrick Hair and Makeup
in Birmingham, Mich. attracted 50 percent more clients. Getting online can make a big difference for small businesses—and stronger businesses makes for stronger communities. Online businesses are expected to grow 40 percent faster and create twice as many jobs as those that aren't online,* but more than half of America’s small businesses currently don't have a website. That’s the inspiration behind
Get Your Business Online Week
, when we come together with local partners to get businesses in our communities online and growing. Starting today, we’ll broadcast free
virtual workshops
for business owners, available to anyone with an Internet connection. Here’s a glimpse of what you can look forward to:
Conversations with businesses
that have prospered online, like
Barkbox
,
GoldieBlox
and Dollar Shave Club
Step-by-step demos
on building a website and getting found on Search and Maps
Interviews with small business experts
like
SmallBizLady
Melinda Emerson
Workshops
on Google tools for businesses (Google Apps, Google Trends, Google Alerts), online advertising (AdWords), and measuring your success online (Analytics)
Free help and advice
from experts over
Helpouts by Google
We’re also teaming up with small business organizations across the country including local chambers of commerce,
Small Business Development Centers
and
SCORE
chapters to host live broadcasts of our trainings. You can find a screening closest to you
on our website
. We’re excited to welcome small business everywhere to join us for this special week. Even if you don’t own a business, we encourage you to take part by spreading the word and inviting your favorite businesses to sign up.
See you on the web!
