Yes! I also forgot to add a short, catchy description at first—mine was way too generic. Once I added a more personal touch and highlighted that we serve locally roasted coffee, I saw more engagement. VILocal is such a useful tool if used properly.
Hey! One common mistake I made was not adding enough detailed information and photos in my VILocal listing. Also, I initially forgot to update my business hours, which confused customers. It’s important to keep everything current and engaging to stand out. Using the Online Directory in Nanaimo, BC helped me see how others present their businesses professionally. I’d say regularly checking and improving your listing is key to attracting more local customers. What other tips have you all discovered for VILocal listings?
