Week 12 - Part One- Using Yelp, Google My Business, Bing
I went ahead and created a Google My Business location site so now potential customers can write reviews, and I can answer them as well as get directions and hours of our location. This is the site location for google my business:

I also went ahead and made a location for Yelp for Leather Direct Colorado and here is the link. This way I can also answer reviews and customers can see hours of operation and location and what we do.

I also made an account for Bing, I just need to verify it when someone gets to the store tomorrow. The store is in Colorado so I have to wait to call and get someone to do the code for me.
Bing is great, as it shows at the top of search engines so this will be usefull tool as another social media site.
Week 12 - Part Two - Discussion
So I made a Yelp review and noticed there were reviews so I replied to those customers that wrote a review. I also added pictures. Yelp partners with other social media sites so this will allow those sites to be assessable since now we are part of Yelp.
Yelp is more for restaurants, hotels and services such as plumbing. But I can see it grow more for retail stores so I am interested in seeing how many hits we get of people viewing our retail store on Yelp.
I updated Google Map and Google Business and this will help give guests directions but also some other social media sites use google map and google business so now will be assessable to those sites as well.
Another social site is the Aurora mall since the retail store Leather Direct Colorado is in the Aurora Mall in Colorado. I send a new logo and pictures to the mall to post on their website so I am waiting for that. I really don't like their website but any new pictures and a promo we are running should do well on their social media site.
The other social media sites mentioned in the assignment would not work for this retail site. I don't think either videos will work too well for the retail site but I may try one.
I don't think Linkin or Tumbler will work either to grown our business but I am interested in it all!
I will keep looking to see what I can do to add more social sites.
