 If you've ever used a GPS before, you're familiar with the dreaded Voice—one wrong move and you hear the tired sigh, and then... "Recalculating." But let's face it, things change, and with today's technology, they can change at lightning speed; and we just have to do our best to keep up.
Some changes are for the better, though. For example, if you haven't updated the categories your business is listed under in Seek And Find recently, you'll find several additions have been made. Accurately identifying your business categories can help new customers find you—customers who already want to patronize your business, because you help support their communities. So make it easy for them to find you; take FIVE minutes and update your business listing's Categories:
- To get started, log on to Seek And Find by entering your e-mail address and password in the Account Login box, in the upper right-hand corner of the page.
- Click on Edit my profile/listings beneath your name to access the Edit Your Details page.
- Click on Edit to the right of your listing, which will bring you to the Edit Entry page.
- From the tabs across the top of the page, select Category to see a list of categories.
- Get subcategories by clicking on the plus sign next to a category. (For example if you click on the plus sign next to Food & Beverage, nine subcategories will display, one of which is Bakery.)
- If you select a category that includes subcategories, you must select a subcategory. If you try to add the main category, the system will prompt you to pick one of the subcategories.
- Simply click on the category or subcategory you want to list your business under and then click the green arrow pointing toward the small box to the upper right. If you change your mind on a category, click on your choice in the box and then click on the arrows pointing away from the box to remove it.You can select up to three categories to list your business under.
- Once you are done, remember to check the box next to I accept the terms and conditions of SeekAndFind.com at the bottom of the page and then click on the red Save button to save your changes.
It's that simple! So jump on to Seek And Find to day, and recalculate so customers can find you! As always, you can check out the Seek And Find FIVE archives to see past issues.
