Trusted Directories Latest News

HEY..Business owners! Why should you want to be Trusted over all the other options out there for advertising?

So as a business owner in Saskatchewan (or further afield as we plan to expand..and explain...across Canada) , why should you allocate some of your precious marketing budget to being a Trusted Directories partner?    www.trustedsaskatoon.com and www.trustedregina.com are the number 1 most visited and trusted directories in their cities for a reason! 

Well, lets explain things really simple ...because, lets face it, there's more than enough smoke and mirrors in this new marketing landscape and quite frankly we are AGAINST that as a company!  

 

FIRSTLY WE ARE TRUSTWORTHY, and we are the real deal ...so if you over promise and under deliver as a company ..stop reading NOW , we are not for you and never will be an option for you to consider!   

 

At Trusted HQ we like numbers, we like data and we like charts....but most of all we love comparisons!  
So lets do a comparative analysis of  TRUSTED DIRECTORIES  vs the 'other options'  out there competing for your time, your attention and YOUR budget!

We could pretty it up, pay for some slick design or make it into an infograph! But you know what? That takes time, and it would'nt really be the best use of OUR time to do that, and definitely not your time,  to decipher it (we have to admit, some infographs have beaten us mentally).  




Here at Trusted HQ, we prefer spending our time helping our partners succeed,  and let's face it, if you run a successful and in demand business ( as we know YOU do! ),  time is the most precious thing you have! 

Let's lay it out there , Trusted is the ONLY  Saskatchewan Marketing company EVER,  that has been recognized and won awards for excellence in marketing locally ( SABEX)  , Provincially (ABEX)  and Internationally ( STEVIE AWARDS) to date... and the caliber of businesses we partner with, and the results we bring them are a big reason why we are so successful! 

See the 2 charts below - to see Trusted against some of the ' other options' locally, nationally and by general medium. These are on and offline,  so  see what we have to offer in comparison....see why we are recognized internationally for our efforts, and make your own mind up.  

 

Here are some excel spreadsheets we created to show the options/ differences etc.. They are by no means all encompassing, this is a focus on  Saskatoon, SK- we would welcome a comparison with any media/ anywhere in Canada or the World (contact us if you would like that, or for us to answer any other questions.)


*the average cost is $monthly unless otherwise specified 
** Trusted Pros and Consumer Choice refused to answer any questions about their business/ practices/ marketing budget- so we did not include them.  

 

 

 

Read the testimony of business owners just like you that took the leap of faith and signed up to something DIFFERENT here 

 

" Another thing to consider is that the Trusted team works more hours to promote our partners,  with more passion, than any other marketing reps or companies that you have worked or will ever work with -  $ for $ ...that I guarantee" Sara Wheelwright, Trusted Founder

 

 

We don't sell click throughs, that is a fraction of our worth...but when we look at our partners analytic data we see that consistently, we are the number 1 marketing referral source,  and we can and DO show anyone that wants to see! So, if you have any questions or would like to see the figures and facts for YOURSELF ...contact our leader : sara@trustedcanada.com
