How You Can Make Money Through the Google Business Referral Program

Since its inception in 1998, Google has been changing the internet and business game. Now they have pushed the envelope once again, but this time the envelope is filled with cash and directed towards Google users. Google is allowing users to earn money through their Google Business Referral Representative campaign. You would not be considered a Google employee. But, you would work for Google as a representative. And, it is a great job opportunity.

"As a Google Business Referral Representative, you'll visit local businesses to collect information (such as hours of operation, types of payment accepted, etc.) for Google Maps, and tell them about Google Maps and Google AdWords. You'll also take a few digital photos of the business that will appear on the Google Maps listing along with the business information. After the visit, you submit the business' info and photo(s) to Google through your Local Business Referrals Center, and we'll pay you up to $10 for each listing that is approved by Google and verified by the business," according to the Google website.

So, if you have some Saturday and Sunday afternoons that you don't need to spend solely on the couch, park the car somewhere and make a nice little mile loop of strip malls, gas stations, and such and you've got yourself a workout and a nice paycheck. The potential is amazing. In less than an hour, a person could make an easy $250 off of one city block alone. Not bad just for a little weekend side hustle, huh?

Earn money helping put local businesses on Google Maps

Do you have a warm welcoming personality? Do you like to talk? Well, if you like the web, can take pictures and have a computer, you can take a step towards becoming a Google Business Referral Representative. Google Business Referral Representatives are active Google users who help local businesses attract more customers online.

The formula is simple: visit businesses in your area and get a check. Have a pleasant conversation with businesses that are close to you and send Google their stats. After Google approves and verifies the information that you have sent them, they will send you your money.
