Google Business Profile publishing is coming soon

Google Business Profile is on the way: we’re waiting for Google to approve our API access. Once it’s live, you’ll schedule updates to your Business Profile from the same calendar as your social posts.

What you can do with Google Business Profile

Profile updates from one composer (planned)

Once it’s live, you’ll write a Business Profile update from the same draft as your Facebook and Instagram posts.

On the shared calendar (planned)

Updates will sit beside your other networks, with queues and drag-to-reschedule.

Approvals (planned)

The same owners, reviewers and multi-step approvals will apply, including client approval for agencies.

Recurring updates (planned)

Repeat regular updates, like weekend hours or a weekly special, on a schedule.
