Does Having A Google+ Profile For Your Business Improve Your Search Rankings?

I'm doing a social network marketing push for my product, yet I don't know much about the value Google+ can provide. Plus, I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to SEO. Does having a Google+ profile improve the credibility of your regular website with Google at all, and will it help your regular website's SEO?

Thanks,
