List your business
Below is a list of options to get your name out there for free (It just costs time...)
Just like amazon reviews, you can collect reviews here to build your trust on google.
Similar to google, Yelp is another popular site to help build trust online
To help reach users beyond google. Yes. there's people actually searching in bing, the default search on windows people to not tech-savvy ortoo lazy to download google chrome or search on google.
Facebook Business Page

A hyper-local option to share offers, engage with their local community, and run ads to get more visibility.

Turn your material shopping points into job opportunities. Sounds like a good deal to me
Homeowners that are looking to complete projects, can browse your profile here, view past work, and reviews and then request a quote if they like your work or when ready.
Similar to Houzz, get connected to local home owners requesting a service that matches your profile. You only pay when you are hired for the project.
Yea it's still around and used by some demographics and traditional online directory searches.
Good for contractors wanting to expand their online presence and attract new leads. It also helps contractors gain additional exposure at no cost.
So why do all this?
The more places your name is registered in, the better chance for someone to find you and hire you. If you have a website, this can also increase traffic to your site and, increase the chances of converting that visit into a paying customer, depending on how well the site is designed (we can help 😀)
There is also this awesome tool called Moz Local, that can list your business in over 70+ listings automatically for a monthly fee, but saves you a lot of time. It still requires some manual work like responding to reviews or posting updates monthly.
