SEO relevance of Google+. Should we bother getting Google+?

[SheffieldMarketing]

I've read mixed results about the SEO benefit of having Google+ for your company.

I'm sure that a very small % of my sites user base has Google+ so if we did implement Google+ into our site I don't think we would really have anyone following us...or in our circle or whatever they call it.

So are you guys using Google+ for your business and if so, do you think it's worth it for me to if I know barely any of my users have Google+?

Google really seems to be trying to plush Google+ for business, with replacing Google places with Google+ Business and requiring people to log into Google+ to rate businesses.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
