Creating social posts are a great way to make sure that anyone searching for your business will be easily informed of any updates or changes your business may have due to COVID-19. Hibu recommends creating a post on both Facebook and Google with a general update that you would like to remain visible to everyone viewing your business. This post is intended to be remain relevant during the COVID-19 time period, and not be a news flash of a one time sale, event, or something of that sort. This can be done through Hibu Reputation (easiest method), or in Google My Business and / or Facebook directly.
