Decorate Your Door
When kids are trick-or-treating what houses draw their attention? The ones with elaborate Halloween decorations adorning the lawn and the house! This doesn’t mean you have to decorate your actual door (however, you can if you want to). For a business your digital door is your Google My Business listing and making sure your digital door is decorated is important all year long. Keeping your information updated and uploading pictures to your GMB listing can make a big difference on how many trick-or-treaters (customers), visit your website.
