A number your customers can trust.

Customers are tired of being asked for reviews, and nobody trusts the ones they read. Trusted by Locals is simpler: a count of recommendations from the people you've worked for, each one confirmed by email.

No payment details. No subscription. No password.

Everyone's tired of reviews.

Reviews

  • Customers get asked, again and again
  • Ten minutes, an account, a paragraph
  • Hard to know which ones to believe

Recommendations

  • One link, shared once
  • Fifteen seconds and an email address
  • Every one confirmed, and you can see when each arrived

Three steps, then it keeps climbing.

  1. Claim your link

    Pick the name people know you by. The link is yours for good, and it's free.

  2. Put it where customers look

    On the van, the invoice, your email signature, a text after the job. One link, nothing to set up for each customer.

  3. Watch it count

    Every happy customer confirms with a tap and your number goes up. Your badge changes as it does.

For your customers, it's fifteen seconds.

  1. They open your link
  2. They add their email
  3. They tap the link we send

No account, no password, nothing to write. One recommendation per person, ever, so every number is real people.

A badge that grows with you.

  1. Day one

    A starter badge that invites your customers to recommend you. It's yours the moment you sign up.

  2. Then your number

    It appears as the recommendations arrive. Badges you've already shared update themselves.

  3. Keep going

    Gold is for the ones locals can't stop recommending.

One link. Everywhere your customers already look.

There's no new link to make for each customer. Print it once and it keeps working: on a van door, at the bottom of an invoice, in an email signature, as a QR code on a market stall.

A number that shows its working.

Every profile shows when its recommendations arrived. A count built steadily over two years looks nothing like two hundred in a week, and anyone can see the difference.

  • No stars and no scores to inflate.
  • Nobody can write anything about you. Your page only says what you say.
  • There's no negative option to be used against you.

For the people you'd recommend to a neighbour.
