Small Business
Tips and tricks for managing your business with Google’s solutions
Building a Proud Community with Google My Business
Tuesday, June 16, 2015
No two businesses are the same. And for small business owners, their unique character is vital for their success and keeps their loyal customers coming back.
Hailee Bland Walsh, the owner of City Gym in Kansas City, believes her gym “should be more than a place to workout. It should be a place to belong." She uses
Google My Business
to share that her gym is a safe place where everyone is welcome.
This message has been especially meaningful for Jake who recently returned to City Gym for the first time after having surgery. For him, City Gym has been an integral part of his transition from female to male, providing a place to explore his changing body and a community of support for him and his friends.
In recognition of LGBT Pride Month, we are excited to share the story of Hailee and Jake, and the power of the web to connect remarkable businesses like City Gym with their people.
