Visitors will be able to access your details via the search facility, or via our telephone number.
You can include a detailed profile of your business, including photos of you and your team.

You will also get:

• Customer feedback cards.
These give you the opportunity to promote your business via word of mouth.
Feedback cards are supplied in a free-post envelope and are returned to us by your customers. The results are displayed on your web page and we pass copies to the Buy With Confidence team.

We will supply you with five cards free of charge. Additional cards are available for £1 each to cover printing and free-post costs - you only pay for what you need.

Although you are not obliged to display customer feedback, some customers do find the opinions of others helpful when deciding which business to use.

An effective Web presence is essential for any trade or service provider.

Why? Because many of your potential customers are ignoring conventional advertising. Now that technology offers an option to avoid the hype and clutter and get to the facts, people have developed an instinctive ability to filter out marketing and advertising messages.

Result - the consumer is getting smarter faster than most businesses.

You now need to connect with the consumer and offer transparency, honesty and facts. The Web offers the ideal medium for this interaction.

Some businesses are uncomfortable with the idea of becoming more open with their customers. Old habits die hard, but the way you communicate will need to change if you want people to listen.
