Are you thinking of ways to boost sales?

Facebook Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp, are common platforms where restaurants are trying to stand out.

How about a different platform that can make customers reach you easily?

We are talking about Google or to be more precise Google Maps and Search Results.

Now, you can take direct orders from the Google Search Results. Google has enabled this direct food ordering feature which turned out to be gold for restaurants.

So, let's tell you more about this comparatively new Google magic!

How Can You Take Orders Via Google Search Results?

Coming to how the Google food ordering function works, let us tell you that it's as easy as ABC.

Google's food ordering feature makes you more visible to consumers. In just a few taps, customers can place an order with your restaurant.

It so happens that if the customer searches for your restaurant or any restaurant using a key term, they can place an order from any takeaway directly from the search.

Suppose, a customer searches for the 'best pizza near me'. As the list of restaurants drops in, they can choose any takeaway (that supports Google online ordering) and place an order directly through Google Search and Maps.

The orders that customers place are received through your Google Business profile. You can then chat with the customer, confirm their order, take the payment and deliver the package to their doorstep.

Google's food ordering from search results and maps has made it easier for customers to place an order. As they search for restaurants, they can directly place an order without having to visit any other platform like website, Instagram, third-party app, etc.

Why Food-Ordering with Google is Beneficial?

We know that WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook have taken over the market. All your promotions are done there. You get customers as well.

But with Google's food ordering everything doubles.

Why?

Because, in a day, about 5.4 billion Google searches take place and there are over 1 billion restaurant searches in Google per month.

'Restaurant near me' or 'food near me' is one of the fastest-growing search terms and Google Maps is by far the most used navigation app.

So, here's the catch!

Google food ordering alone opens you to an enormous audience capture alone. Hence, once you have the platform in your hands it can make you reach billions.

By using the Google food ordering feature;

• Your brand visibility increases by leaps and bounds
• You can grow your customer base by connecting with Google users

Chatbots are super beings. They can be active 24/7. Handling customers, responding to their queries patiently, making recommendations, etc. is what they do smoothly without any human interference.

So, you can integrate a smart chatbot like FOSA (Food Ordering Smart Assistant) with your Google profile and chill.

FOSA can smartly handle all customer orders. It can take your customers through the entire ordering process, approve orders and process the payment as well.
