The Brownbook is the UK’s first user-created local business directory where anyone can edit and anyone can review

What Company Is Offering:
The Brownbook is the UK’s first user-created local business directory where anyone can edit and anyone can review. The business is owned and run by the founders and it is independent of any of the existing directory providers.

How It Works:
Anyone without registering can add reviews for any business - positive or negative – and if the business you want to review isn’t there it takes you a matter of seconds to add it, further increasing the power of the service for future users. Frequent visitors can optionally register with The Brownbook if they want to develop a sense of ‘reputation’ behind their reviews and edits. They will also receive their own ‘user page’ which lets them tell other members about themselves in addition to tracking any reviews or edits they’ve made at anytime.

Smart businesses can use The Brownbook to promote their business and its reputation. By encouraging satisfied customers to give positive testimonials any business can build up its local credibility.

Business owners can claim and promote their business listings for a small annual subscription that costs less than a box of pens. The Brownbook system alerts them any time a review or any other updates are made, and they can add photos and videos of their business as well as rich business details like opening times, special promotions, and any other information useful for customers. And all these can be changed or updated by the business owner at any time at no extra cost by simply going online to www.brownbook.net.
