Business Listings Build The Foundation For Success
October 6, 2006 – 10:13 amOne thing that any new or existing business should do to raise awareness of their products or services is to make sure they have plenty of business listings in places that can help them.
Here are some suggestions for basic business listings to get started.
- The Yellow Pages Many people still refer to the good old fashioned phone book when they need to call someone quick. Having a business listing in the Yellow Pages distributes your business information to the people that are looking for it. Contact your local phone company for details on listings for the Yellow Pages.
- Online Directories Online directories are affordable ways to promote your website online. More people are moving towards advertising online as well. Yahoo! offers Directory Listings at a price of $299.00 recurring annual payment. The Goongee Directory offers business listings with a one time $19.99 payment with quick review and placement.
- The BBB Having the approval of the Better Business Bureau helps to establish trust with potential customers, especially if your business does jobs that involve thousands of dollars like replacing a roof or doing car repairs. Contact your local BBB for details on membership.
- Local Outlets Check with your local Camber of Commerce, Civic Groups or churches for newsletter sponsorship or other opportunities to spread your business within social
groups. You might even consider sponsoring your local high schools yearbook. Contact them directly to ask what’s available.
Solid footing both online and off is the beginning of a firm business foundation. I urge you to start building your grounds today. Business listings are the lifeblood of every business so make sure you’re listed where you need to be for more business and increased profits.
