While all reviews and customer feedback are important and invaluable to your company, promoting your best reviews is a great way to get your positive social proof in front of your ideal prospects.
You can promote your best reviews using paid social media ads, or even in traditional advertising such as print, radio, and TV.
“We’re Local & Proud Of It” ™
That is our rally cry. Supporting your favorite local businesses and organizations in your neighborhood is a great way to live this out. We’ve made it easy to spread the love.
Write A Review Of A Local Place
When considering who you’d like to recommend as a local place, think about who your Power Team might consist of.
A power team is a group of businesses who are in complementary professions. They typically work with the same customers but do not compete for business.
In other words; who else sells to the same customer? This can be a fantastic source of referrals and is an excellent way to recommend other local places from your Business Profile. Once you establish your power team, invite them all to join WhirLocal, and recommend each other for more word of mouth referrals.
A great example would be in the real estate industry. A power team would include a realtor, mortgage broker, home inspector, and title and escrow. Additional members of a real estate power team could include home improvement contractors such as roofers, painters, and landscapers.
Here are a few more examples of power teams:

We have a core set of values and beliefs around here:
- Local businesses and organizations are the backbone of our economy and often don’t get the credit and respect they deserve. We want to help change this.
- By working together with other local businesses in the neighborhood, we can build stronger local communities, one neighbor and local business at a time.
- We’re creating a new opportunity and changing the face of local marketing in the process.
- You deserve more than Big Box Internet marketing solutions; ‘Billion-dollar bullies’, venture capital-backed unicorns, and corporate America type solutions.
- “We’re local & Proud Of It!”
We’ve built our Neighborhood Marketing Platform based on decades of local marketing experience, both running our own local businesses and serving others just like you.
