FAQs

  • How much does a directory spot cost?

    Prices vary depending on where you're based and what type of work you do.

    That way, you only pay for what makes sense for your business.

  • Do I have to be featured in every directory?

    You’re in control. You can pick which local areas you'd like to feature in. We send out printed directories every other month, and when your subscription ends, it auto-renews. That’s your chance to review results and make changes, where needed, before the next edition.

  • How do I track my leads from directories?

    Every directory box gets a unique, secure phone number. When a customer calls, you’ll know the lead came through us. It makes it easier to track calls, measure value, and see what’s working.
