Improvability Consultant Directory is the perfect place for you to advertise your services and find new customers quickly.

Carol placed her ad on Wednesday and then sent me this email,
"Just thought I would let you know that when I returned home on Thursday afternoon there was a message on my answerphone from a lady wanting to book an appointment after seeing my details on your site!!!!"

Why you should advertise on the internet:

• This is the age of communication and the internet is the main source of information for everyone
• When they're looking for a colour or image consultant, the first place that most people check these days is the internet
• You need a web presence for professional business integrity
• Search engines and web directories update their content on a regular basis so internet information is the most up to date around

You could set up your own website:

• A professionally-built website will probably set you back a few hundred pounds
• You'll have to be very specific about your requirements for the designers
• Or you could build your own yourself, and retain complete control
• Either way, there will be monthly or yearly costs to pay to maintain your server space
• How will you make changes to your own website? If you can't do this yourself, a professional company will charge you for each update and, in our experience, they will do it in their own time and not when you want it
• If you can find someone to set up your website for free (a friend or a family member), can you rely on them for updates when necessary?
• Building a website isn't enough on its own. How will people find your site amongst the hundreds of thousands of others out there? You must get a good ranking in the search engines
• Top search engine rankings cost money - Yahoo expect a minimum spend from you of GBP 20.00 every month and Google or MSN will also charge similar fees every month too

When you advertise on the Improvability website

• You do not need a website of your own at all
• We consistently rank in the top 5 of search engines like Google, Yahoo, AskJeeves, etc. because we check and amend our entries every few days and we pay a lot of money for them!
• You will be associated with the Improvability name and our excellent reputation
• The directory is an exclusive list of consultants
• Enquirers will be able to contact you directly, and you choose how (see below)
• You can write your own profile and mention any other work you do, i.e. hair stylist, beauty therapy, fashion boutique owner
• Include a photo of yourself or a business logo at no extra charge
• Link to your own own website, if you have one. Links between websites will improve your own search engine rankings too
• Free updates to your profile whenever you want - for instance, you could use this to promote your latest event

We receive enquiries all the time from individuals looking for a consultant in their area and we are receiving more and more enquiries from groups and businesses looking for a speaker, someone to run a workshop, or for other corporate work in their area.

Who is this for?

Professional consultants running a current, active business who want to access an already-targeted market of potential new customers.

We have discovered that those consultants who are running a current, active business will keep their profile up to date - and the only way to define who is current and active are those who are prepared to invest in their business on a regular basis.

Your investment in your business

Your investment of GBP 19.95 every quarter amounts to an annual outlay of GBP 79.80:

• less than 22 pence (GBP) a day
• less than 31 cents (USD) a day
• less than 21 cents (EUR) a day

This is less than the price of a second-class stamp in the UK, and you couldn't even buy a newspaper for that!

Where else could you promote yourself to such a targeted market for less than £80 a year?

• I guess GBP 79.80 might buy you two and a bit decent adverts in your local weekly paper - so the exposure would last for three weeks maximum and then get thrown in the dustbin
  
  
• It might buy you a little more than 2 months of good search engine rankings - depending on how astute you are and how much coverage you want, and if you know how to do it yourself!
