As part of a major effort to help out struggling businesses, Google has announced a number of measures to provide financial aid and allow small-to-medium businesses to keep the doors open.

The facts:

• Google has pledged $800M to help eligible small-to-medium businesses – more information will be available in the coming weeks.
• The grant is also for health and government workers who are working to stop the spread of COVID-19.
• $340M in ad credits will also be made available to companies and businesses who had active Google accounts last year, with the credits being gifted to their account automatically. To find out if you’re eligible, get in touch with us.

In the coming months, many small-to-medium businesses will be taking a hit, losing customers and sales due to restrictions and shutdowns.

This Google grant may be a massive help in allowing you to stay profitable, especially by using ad credits and getting the word out online that you’re still open for business.
