Why You Should List Your Business with Directory of Charleston To ensure your business's success, you'll need targeted and local advertising. The BEST way to advertise is through listing in a local directory, where millions of people are ACTIVELY seeking what your business has to offer. The Yellow Pages was great in its time, but when is the last time you saw someone pick up a phone book to find a business? With the use of the internet and advances in technology, everyone with an iPhone, PDA, or Laptop has the ability to find all of their information. By listing your business with us, you'll get maximum exposure 24/7. How does it work? Simple. All they do is search for specific types of businesses, and your ad listing will show up in the results page. For a premium listing, you can even get promoted through multiple online channels and mobile applications. With so many promotional directories, we're usually the first to appear in search results, allowing your customers to find you fast. You can also depend on local searches on sites like Google, which will get over half a million returns on our site with just one location. Wouldn't you like your customers to find you that often? What's next? Assuming you want your business to grow and be at the forefront….. Having an online listing is definitely the way to ensure success. It's much more cost effective than a yellow page listing, and will generate much more business than traditional advertising. We can even demonstrate for you. If you advertise in the paper, your ad could cost upwards of $40 a week. Over the course of a year, that's just over $2000. And only the people that receive a paper will actually see your ad. Searching on the internet is free, unlike newspaper subscriptions, so more people tend to use the internet to find businesses these days. For your premium listing on our directory, the yearly fee is only $299, or 82 cents a day. You can't beat that, especially when you're not limited to the people you reach. If nothing else, do it to challenge your competition. We've got over 2,000 businesses already signed up, and many are in the same business that you are.
