Real or Scam? Plus a 15-Minute Google Business Profile Tune-Up
28th October 2026

Details:

This week John Foskett from Online Optimisation runs two quick, practical sessions you can use straight away.



Real or Scam?

Scams aimed at small businesses peak in the lead up to Christmas. We'll look at real emails, texts and invoices, and the room votes: real or scam? We'll reveal the answer and the warning signs each time, covering things like fake invoices, "change of bank details" requests, Google listing calls and delivery texts. You'll leave with a one-page checklist for spotting scams.



15-Minute Google Business Profile Tune-Up

Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing customers see. Bring your phone and we'll fix three quick things on your own profile in the room.




  • Bring your phone

  • Know the Google login you use to manage your business profile
