Small Business Owner? Meet Patch Direct - Our New Way to Keep You in Front of Local Customers

At Patch, we’re talking to local business owners every day. We hear how challenging it can be to get — and to keep — your name in front of the customers who matter most: the ones who are nearby. That’s why we’ve created Patch Direct, an exclusive listing that appears on the front page of every Patch and in every local Patch newsletter we send.

Here’s what you get with Patch Direct.

• 100 Percent Share of Voice

When you reserve your business category on a local Patch, we won’t sell that category to any of your competitors. To keep Patch Direct prominently placed and easy to read, we limit the slots to one per business category.
