30 Google Business Profile Post Templates
A Google Business Profile that never posts looks closed even when it is open — customers check the profile, see nothing new for months, and move on to a competitor who posted this week. These thirty templates remove the “what do I post?” problem: offers, updates, events, product news, and reminders, each with a clear structure and a call to action. They suit shops, clinics, restaurants, and any local business that wants its profile to look alive.
What’s inside this resource
The templates are grouped by post type because Google treats them differently: offers carry expiry dates, events carry dates and times, and updates carry news. Each template leaves placeholders in brackets for your details, so a post takes two minutes: pick a type, fill the blanks, add a photo, publish. Post at least weekly — freshness is the whole point.

How to use this resource
- Pick the post type that matches your news — offers need dates, events need times.
- Add one real photo per post; posts with photos get far more views than text alone.
- Keep the call to action to one thing: book, call, visit, or order.
- Post at least once a week, and pin nothing — freshness beats perfection.
- Reply to every comment and question on your posts within a day.
A resource is only useful when it gets used — pick one item today, use it as written, and adapt it from experience rather than from theory.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I post on my Business Profile?
At least weekly. Businesses that post regularly look active and current, which is exactly what a searcher deciding between two listings wants to see.
Do Business Profile posts help rankings?
They support visibility and clicks more than they directly move rankings — but a profile that earns clicks and calls is a profile Google keeps showing.
What makes a good post photo?
A real photo of your place, product, or team, in good light. Stock photos are easy to spot and do nothing for trust.
