How to add Google Maps directions link in your email (in 2-5 minutes)

If you’re a brick-and-mortar business owner, you most likely sell best when prospective clients are at your store. So getting them there is a huge win for you. You are probably making the effort to get them to your place of business through Google Business profile and online ads right? But are you making full use of your email?

If you’re like most business owners, you send out dozens of emails every week (or every day), why not make the effort to turn readers into prospects and lead them to visit your business?

You can encourage your readers to come to your store, restaurant or any other brick-and-mortar business by placing a visible Google Maps directions link, with map images and all. As far as email signature ideas go, this one is something your competitors will definitely copy once you implement it.
