How does the integration of Workiz with Google Ads and Maps work?

The integration of Workiz with Google Ads and Maps enables you to conveniently book services directly through a linked booking interface, where you can select the industry, schedule the appointment, provide a phone number, and send the booking.

Full Explanation

When you connect Workiz with Google Ads and Maps, the system creates a direct link to a booking feature. This ‘book’ link allows users to select their industry category, such as garage door or spring repair, then proceed to set up the appointment time and enter contact details, including a phone number, before sending the booking request. This integration simplifies the process of scheduling and managing appointments by linking advertising and geolocation platforms directly to Workiz’s booking system.

  1. First, integrate Workiz with Google Ads and Google Maps.
  2. Once integrated, a ‘book’ link becomes available for users.
  3. Clicking on the ‘book’ link allows selection of the relevant industry, such as garage door, off track, or spring repair.
