How to get customers, trade by trade.
Every business here has two customer bases: the public, and the other businesses that buy from them on repeat. Most trades work the first and ignore the second. These pages are about where the work actually comes from — written for the trade, not about it.

Selling to one of these trades instead?
Every page ends with a note on what that industry buys, how well it is covered across our data sources, and which combination of sources returns the fullest list. If you sell software, insurance, finance, materials or marketing services to any of them, that is the paragraph you want.
- Search the trade and the cities. Each keyword runs against each location in one search, so a whole region is one run rather than one town at a time.
- Contact details come from their own websites. The listing gives a name and a site; the addresses come from crawling it, then get verified before export.
- Coverage varies by trade, and the pages say so. Licensed trades and professional firms have high website coverage; salons, barbers and food businesses live on Maps and Instagram, so the source mix matters.
Try it on a trade you know
The quickest way to judge any of this is to run a search against a market you already understand and check the rows against what you know. That takes about a minute.
