BUILD YOUR OWN TOWNMARKET
“Your town. Your businesses. Your marketplace.”
TownMarket gives you the platform, the local businesses and the tools to launch and grow a local marketplace for your chosen town.
1. CHOOSE YOUR TOWN
Start with a town you know and understand. Choose an available town or city where you want to build your own local TownMarket. For example: Devizes. Your TownMarket is created specifically around your chosen area, with its own local identity, businesses and content.
2. WE BUILD YOUR TOWNMARKET
Your marketplace is prepared for launch with the core platform and structure you need to get started. This includes your TownMarket website and branding, local categories, business profiles, search, featured listings, Add Your Business and Claim-a-Business functionality.
3. LAUNCH WITH UP TO 50 LOCAL BUSINESSES
You don't start with an empty directory. We can prepare up to 50 genuine local businesses for your chosen town before launch. Businesses are researched, categorised and added to your TownMarket, giving your marketplace something to discover from Day One.
The 50 businesses are just the beginning. Once your TownMarket is live, you can approach the businesses already listed and invite them to claim, update and enhance their profiles.
4. BUILD LOCAL BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS
The 50 businesses are just the beginning. Once your TownMarket is live, you can start building relationships with the businesses already listed and invite them to claim, update and enhance their profiles.
5. GROW YOUR TOWN
Your 50-business launch is the starting point — not the target. Continue adding businesses, develop new categories, create local content and build an audience around your town.
50 → 100 → 250 → 500+ BUSINESSES
6. BUILD MULTIPLE REVENUE STREAMS
