I could have used this when I was looking for restaurants with dancers last weekend. You can send a text to Google requesting info on just about anything/anywhere and they’ll text you back with relevant businesses. Try it–text the words “belly dance” restaurant NYC to 466453 (Google’s short code) and see what happens.
You can use this to find eateries, airline flight info, zip codes, shoe repair shops in Soho–just about anything you might look up on Google, but you don’t have to go online. The only charge is your normal text charge.
Now, I’m trying to find out exactly how you make sure your business shows up on this service. I’m not sure if it’s based on “Google maps” or being ranked highly on the web or the mobile web or a combination of things…when I find out, I’ll be sure to let you know.
In the meantime, try texting keywords around YOUR belly dance business to Google and see if you show up.
