Want to get discovered faster, attract new clients, and make it easier for them to book with you? Setting up a Google Business Profile is a game-changer! Here’s how you can list your barber business on Google and add your booking link to drive more appointments.

When potential clients search for barbers near them, Google shows businesses with a verified profile. Having a profile means:

✅ Your shop appears on Google Search & Maps

✅ Clients can find & contact you easily

✅ You can add your booking link so they can book instantly

✅ You’ll stand out from other local barbers


Ready to get set up? Let’s go!

1️⃣ Sign Up for Google Business

1. Go to Google Business Profile.

2. Click “Get Started.”

2️⃣ Add Your Barber Business

3. Enter your business name & select a Business Type

- Online Retail

- Local Store (Commercial or Residential)

- Service Business (Mobile Barber)

4. Click “Next.”

5. Add your Business Category (Barbershop or Hair Stylist).

6. Click “Next.”

.

3️⃣ Set Your Location & Service Area

• If you have a shop, select “Yes” and enter your address.

You will be prompted to select any of the possible options Google has to link to your business. You can click ‘none of these’ if inaccurate.

4️⃣ Add Your Contact Details & Booking Link
