You can use a dynamic DNS. I used ddns.net which offers a free solution. Basically, you enter your FQDN as this: yourcompany.ddns.net as your domain. When looked up for an IP address, the .net domain points to ddns; when ddns.net is looked up, it looks up in its database for your company, returns the IP. So mine looks like this: https://wigwam.ddns.net and everything works fine. You don't need to buy a domain, you can substitute your known IP, and Google is happy with that.

Your IP must be static, of course.
