What is the Business Showcase?

The Business Showcase is an online directory of the companies that serve Westbank, the Westside, and surrounding area. This directory does more than simply add your company's name, address, and phone number to a long list of names, addresses, and phone numbers. We come to your business with a camera, take lots of pictures, and you get the opportunity to tell potential customers about your company, products, and services.

With the Business Showcase you can...

• Invite new customers into your store or business right from the comfort of their own home.
  
• Promote your company, products and services.
  
• Direct customers to your own website. A company website is a large investment - we help people find it.
  
• Increase the effectiveness of your online presence and branding. Additional links to your own website improves your company's search engine results.
  

Note: Even if your company does not currently have a website, you can establish an immediate online presence within a few days on ExperienceWestbank.com. If you decide to create a company website later on, let us know and we can link it into your Business Showcase Listing at no extra charge.

Why should my business be part of the Business Showcase?

ExperienceWestbank.com is about great content. People return to sites that they trust to have good and current content. At ExperienceWestbank.com we are committed to bringing new content and photos to the website every week. In the Business Showcase, your business becomes part of this content.

There is where you tell the world ...

• about the products and/or services your business sells,
  
• why potential customers should do business with you,
  
• why your business is special,
  
• and the things you are most proud of.
  

ExperienceWestbank.com is not about advertisements - we are about marketing. The Business Showcase helps you build brand awareness to improve the effectiveness of your advertising dollars. Our readers know that we do not sell "ads", so they do not "tune out" your showcase listing. They read it to learn, and they read it because it is interesting. And it sticks! The next time someone sees your brand (be it in an advertisement or a sign) they remember your showcase listing and take notice.

As well, when you are on our showcase, we automatically profile your business on relevant content pages. Sell real estate services? You will be visible on the "how to sell a home" section. Sell outdoor gear? You will be visible on the "hiking trails" section. You get the idea.

How much does it cost?

Can My Company be Invoiced on a Monthly Basis?

Yes, for your convenience we can invoice your business on a monthly basis. Keep in mind, we are currently offering a 30% saving if the total balance is paid when your listing is added to the Business Showcase.

This is a partnership and long-term relationship. We seek to become a key part of your marketing plan, and good marketing plans take months to deploy and the value grows over time. We invest significant time getting to know you and your business and putting together a presentation that leaves a lasting impression with readers. This is why we refuse to accept any listing for less than a 3-month contract.
