Google now offers Coupons for USA businesses on Google MAPS

To assist businesses to attract additional customers, firms can now have coupon information, including images, in their Google Local Search MAPS listing.

The customer can print out the coupon to receive the offer being made. This means that small firms can compete without having to have a web site. There will be no charge by Google for the service.

Google will distribute ValPak coupons; Valpak is a large USA provider of direct mail advertising. Valpak will receive free exposure to Google's audience, and Google will receive content to offer to Google Maps users.

Businesses will be able to buy Google sponsored links to drive traffic to their coupons, even if they don’t have a website.

This will have substantial benefits in increasing Local Search traffic and sales.

Our USA Business Directory for Local Search also contributes, since the 10 million businesses listed, the vast majority of which are small businesses, have prospects sent to them 100% free of charge.
