Five things every local business should put on its listing
By Pankaj Kumar Jha · 19 Sep 2026 · 0 views
Listings that get calls all share the same handful of details. Most take ten minutes to add.
We looked at what separates a listing that rings from one that sits quiet.
1. A reachable number
A landline nobody answers after 6pm costs you the evening enquiries. Put the mobile that is actually in someone's pocket.
2. Real photographs
Three photos of the actual shop or work beat twenty stock images. Daylight, no filter.
3. Prices, even as a range
Saying starts from Rs 1500 filters out the people who were never going to buy and reassures the ones who were.
4. Honest timings
Mark the weekly off. Nothing annoys a customer like a locked shutter after a thirty minute ride.
5. Reply to reviews
Especially the critical ones. A calm reply to a three star review reads better than ten unanswered five stars.
