How can this help?

  • GBP Performance reporting allows you to gather important information about how people search for your business on Google.

  • For example, if you’re trying to drive traffic to your online store, you’ll want to see most of your results in Search.

  • But if you’re looking to increase foot traffic, you’ll probably want to optimize for Maps.

  • This data provides insights into customer behaviour and helps you improve your online visibility.

How do you access the report?

  • To get there, click on Analytics at the top right and select GBP Performance on the left. 

  • Like other reports on the PromoRepublic platform, you can use Custom views. If this section is not available for you, please contact your Customer Success Manager.

  • Before you start:

    • Before diving into the numbers, select the time period for the report at the top right.

    • The data presented is compared to the data from the past period of the same duration.

    • For example, the number of days in a 7-day period will be compared to the previous 7-day period.
