Option to write up to three articles for the "Readers Corner" feature of the Directory. This helps establish your "authority" and expertise in your business. Well written, can help increase engagement of prospective customers and walk-in business. We may enhance your article with stock photographs. We can also optionally add your 4K professional video in your article. Your video production may be planned with the intent of making sure it also effectively supports your article(s). At the bottom of your article page we post a very robust "'Quick Listing" as credit line for the article(s) you submit on your article page.

Professional 4K business video production with up to three minutes play time. This video is included with your Premium Listing. Ownership of the video remains with the Six Counties Business Directory. We will embed a Vimeo version in your Premium Listing free of distracting advertising. We will also post a YouTube hosted version of your video on our YouTube Channel. That video will be search optimized for Google search results to help provide you additional exposure as well as generate new business. The YouTube version of your video will have link to your Premium Listing. As long as Facebook offers video hosting, a Facebook version of the video production is posted on the main Six Counties Business Directory Facebook page. Video file is not provided to advertiser and full ownership and copyright of video productions belong to Six Counties+ Business Directory. If you have YouTube videos already on your own YouTube Channel, if you can provide me the video file, I will upload to my Vimeo for hosting inside virtual tour(s). Otherwise, the only Vimeo hosting I provide is for 4K business video productions which I create for your Premium Listing and for Video Advertising in virtual tours. The purpose of this policy of video ownership and control prevents videos from being deleted and becoming nonfunctional on our webpages and inside virtual tours decreasing usefulness of the Directory. Also, videos and any other digital assets I create which contain music backgrounds must be hosted under my own accounts since the music backgrounds are licensed to me. Non-transferable. You may use this to your advantage as another way I save you money on multimedia productions.
Custom PDF Brochure/Price List up to FIVE pages. You may download and post PDF on your own website.
Coupons. We will optionally create a coupon/special offer which can be listed on your Premium Listing and featured on the Coupons page of the Directory. No additional charge for this optional feature to enhance your Premium Listing performance. We can can create digital coupon for you and post on your Premium Listing. The Coupons feature is NOT available to Quick Listing advertisers. When these exclusive Directory coupons are presented at your business, you have a verifiable and measurable strategy for determining performance.
Cross-Promotion Development. Do you see other Premium Listed businesses you think a cross-promotion program will be beneficial to both of you? If so, as a Premium Listing advertiser we can function as your "Cross-Promotion Representative" or negotiator to help the two of you to develop a cross-promotion that may help each of you to acquire new business you probably wouldn't have generated otherwise. This may especially be an effective strategy and partnership when the two businesses are generally located outside each other's normal service area. With the implementation of the right cross-promotion, each business may cost-effectively bring in new business from around each others locations. Two businesses which serve the same industry but which are not direct competitors may reasonably expect greater opportunity for success. The Cross-Promotion Development benefit is not provided to other advertisers.
Custom Contact Form. A very sophisticated and customized Contact Form is included with your Premium Listing. This Contact Form may also be placed on your existing website by simply copy & paste the code into your webpage. May also be placed in your business Virtual Tour. This Contact Form is included in the Premium Listing annual fee. Configured to send submissions to email or emails of your choice. May include logo, up to 3 pages, staff photo, map, payment button, driving directions and more.
Custom QR Contact Code. Included. QR contact code is created and placed in your Premium Listing. This enables your Premium Listing visitors to scan your QR Code to have all your Contact information immediately placed in the Contact list of their mobile device.
TOP FOUR FEATURED LISTINGS (OPTION). Premium Listing advertisers may get positioned at TOP of Home page and/or TOP of business category listing page(s) when available. Each top four featured listing at TOP of page is $10 a month each. When clicked, takes Directory visitor to your Premium Listing. This may be more ideal and cost-effective when done seasonally for extra exposure. Also to call extra attention to your business when you are running a special offer and/or have a new coupon offered on your Premium Listing. So $10 a month to place each of your "business cards" for seasonal and special offers/coupons on various business category listing pages for services & products you offer can provide a worthy return on investment.
Premium Listing advertisers may also advertise with a Quick Listing on other business categories. A great option when you offer secondary services and products which correspond to other business categories which are not your main business. Since you are a Premium Listing advertiser, each Quick Listing may be added at discounted rate of $50 a year.
Option to post a Video Advertisement or Banner Ad inside the 360° Virtual 3D Tour of a Tourist/Recreational Area tour for additional $20 a month. Stop at anytime. Easily renew for season. Clickable link options include direct to your website, Facebook and Premium Listing.

One exterior 360° virtual 3D aerial view is INCLUDED with your Premium or Quick Listing. This can be a great way to show prospective new customers or clients what they may expect when they arrive at your location for the first time. If they see an exterior area that is clean, tidy and appears inviting - this can help them feel more at ease and less resistance to drive to your location to do business with you for the first time. The birds-eye view over the area surrounding your business location is very effective for this purpose.
You may optionally add interior 360° virtual 3D tour for your business. With this option, we will add an entry point to the entrance of your business which may be clicked to take your virtual view visitors inside your business to take a look around.
Virtual tours may include background music, voice narration, your own business logo, clickable map and Google driving directions to your business at no additional charge. Your business logo may be placed inside the tour and clickable sending visitors to your Premium Listing or your website. Athens Auto Logic 360° Virtual 3D View is example with voice narration & music.

I do NOT offer Drone photography/video services. Instead, I offer Elevated Photography as a work around option. Camera is mounted on top of 20-foot high camera pole. This is lower priced than drone photography and most often provides the aerial perspective desired for single-story business locations.
