Common Questions
Frequently Asked
Do you work with small local businesses?
Yes — most of our partners are independent Philadelphia businesses. We built this platform specifically to help local stores, restaurants, and makers reach more customers. Our Featured Listing tier starts at $99/month specifically to be accessible.
How do I know it's working?
Every partner gets a monthly performance report showing impressions, clicks, and referral traffic to your website or booking platform. We track everything and share it transparently.
Can you write the content for me?
Absolutely. All tiers include professional editorial writing. You provide the facts (address, hours, what makes you special) and we handle the prose, formatting, and design. You approve everything before it goes live.
Is there a contract?
Monthly tiers are month-to-month with no long-term commitment. Cancel anytime. We only ask for a 14-day notice so we can remove your listings cleanly.
What about multiple locations?
Multi-location businesses get 20% off each additional location. Get in touch and we'll put together a custom proposal.
Do you accept all businesses?
We curate our partners carefully. Our editorial standards mean we only feature businesses we'd actually recommend to a friend. If we don't think your business is a good fit for our audience, we'll tell you honestly.
