How to Set Up Google My Business for Avon

You will need to create a Google email account.

This will be the email you will use for your Avon business.

If you already have a Gmail email address, go on to the next step.

First, let’s create a Google My Business Listing to start getting your online Avon business visible to people in your location.

The following will be information you need to answer regarding getting your Google My Business account created.

Add the name of your Avon business following Avon’s policies and procedures.

A good idea is to use the same name you have for your Facebook business page.

Click on the link “Add your business to Google”.

Choose the category that best fits your Avon business. A few good category choices are beauty supply store, health and beauty shop, and cosmetics store. Find the category that best fits the type of business you are running.

If you can’t decide which one to use, don’t worry as you will be able to add more later.

Want to be found on Google Maps as the local Avon rep?

This location will show up on Google Maps when customers are searching for an Avon representative in your area.

If you don’t want this feature, select “no”, and you will be directed to choose your city.

Simply add your full address so customers can find you when they are searching for an Avon representative in your area.

If you don’t have a physical store location, use your home address. This is optional, of course.

You will be able to remove your address after verification is completed if you desire. See step 11 for details on updating your business as a delivery and home service business type.

If you deliver Avon products to other cities, check the “Yes” box.

List the cities you deliver Avon to. Start typing the name and it will give you choices.

You have successfully created your Avon Google My Business listing after clicking on “Finish”.

Google will want to verify your listing. You have 2 options to do this verification process.

1. Instantly verify your listing with an automated phone call.
2. Google can verify your business listing address by sending a postcard. This could take up to 4 days to receive.

After verification, sign in to your Google My Business account and select the “Info tab” on the left side of your screen.

Here you can edit and/or add information about your Avon business.

I select the following option for my at-home direct sales business:
“No location; deliveries and home services only.”
However, you can set it up in a way that works for you.

Once you are done updating your information, your listing should be live.

Congratulations on going through this process!
