Most powerful ways to connect Google Business Profile and Bitly
Google Business Profile + Bitly + Google Sheets: When a new Google Business Profile post is created, a shortened Bitlink is created. The post details and the shortened link are then added to a Google Sheet for tracking campaign performance.
Bitly + Google Business Profile + Slack: When a Bitlink is created (presumably for a GBP post), the system monitors clicks. When a Bitlink click occurs (which is not available so we are using created instead), send a notification to a designated Slack channel alerting the team to the engagement.
