What is your business credentials score with consumers? See the video.

We want to remind all businesses and contractors of the importance of accurately listing their credentials on our site. When consumers search for a company or contractor, they rely on the credentials listed to make their decision. Businesses and contractors must guarantee the accuracy of their credentials.

Consumers can easily search for a business based on their credentials, such as registration, licensing, and years in business. Similarly, contractor credentials, like worker’s compensation, liability, and written contracts, provide consumers with the necessary information to make an informed decision.

The business is in the first tier of the database.   See the video

Display of the business occurs above Information Only Profiles, Basic Subscriptions, Plus Subscriptions and Standard Subscriptions,  Advanced Subscriptions and any others who may have signed up for the Professional Subscription after your business in your region or categories.  The Professional Subscription is listed according to our Business Order of Display.

The Business Owner measures every View. The measured views are secured in the business content management pages and not displayed publicly. See More

You can bypass your competition by simply linking your profile on Safe and Trusted Canada. See the video.

 

This means that the user does not have to search you out as a business on the Safe and Trusted site, which could also mean that your customers won’t see your competition.    This advantage could be huge for you as a business owner.

Use your profile to augment your website. You can add material to your profile more easily than on your website; more importantly, the user doesn’t see your competition. Imagine all the material on your Safe and Trusted Canada profile that is not on your website.

You can also link to all your local affiliations and any business category affiliations that show why customers should pick you. Affiliations add to the overall credibility of a business. Go to the content management area in the Basic area and list each under affiliations. Place the affiliation’s name, then add the link to your listing with that affiliation. Place the full link next to the name of the affiliation. All affiliations automatically shorten if you have a professional, advanced or standard subscription.  This also works for your website and links back to certain parts of your website.    Using Links in Your Business Presentation.

One of our platform’s benefits is that businesses can place their contact information, social media links, business credentials, and all their review sites. They can highlight what makes them different and even specific links to their website. They manage their reviews and send all their information to a potential client in one link. This allows the business owner to give their clients the whole picture.

Your subscription allows customers to leave reviews. See the tutorial 

See the video about reviews.

 

All reviews are monitored and posted by the business owner.  You can request the deletion of a corrected customer review or ask for the deletion of a review that is not from your customer.  As a business, you are not allowed to review your own business.  Your advantage as a business owner is that you are always on top of your business.

One problem with reviews is that a negative review often blindsides a business. Never be blindsided again. See the video.

 

One of the problems most businesses experience is not asking for reviews. They are worried about negative reviews and are not proactive in asking for feedback.

The Safe and Trusted Review system allows the business owner to proactively ask for customer feedback and instantly become aware of issues that may be unknown to the business owner.

Use proactive reviews to identify issues quickly for the business owner. This will enable the business owner to mitigate issues swiftly and resolve customer problems before they escalate out of hand with reviews on websites or even complaints to Better Business Bureau.

Safe and Trusted Canada ( The Site) provides the option for a Standard Plan for $199.00 plus GST for a yearly subscription. Yearly subscriptions are automatically billed 60 days before the subscription expiration date.

See the application.  Credibility Counts

The Standard Subscription is reduced by $25.00 for businesses in a province with fewer than 1.5 million people.  Businesses advertising in more than one province do not receive a discount, and monthly payments are not discounted.

This discount is given because some provinces have larger populations in some cities than some provinces have in total population.

The Standard Subscription is reduced by $25.00 for businesses in a province of over 1.5 million people that link their profile to their website using the embed code in their account access.

A business may use discounts and pay $174.00 per year or $16.50 per month if it qualifies.  GST is added to the payment.

 

Please remember that the Standard Subscription is a premium account type with many presentation options. Only the Advanced Subscription and Professional Subscription offer more.    

The Site automatically reduces the subscription to an Information Only profile should the subscription be cancelled.  The company may also be archived.

What is your business credentials score with consumers? See the video.

 

We want to remind all businesses and contractors of the importance of accurately listing their credentials on our site. When consumers search for a business or contractor, they rely on the credentials listed to decide. Businesses and contractors must guarantee the accuracy of their credentials.

Consumers can easily search for a business based on their credentials, such as registration, licensing, and years in business. Similarly, contractor credentials, like worker’s compensation, liability, and written contracts, provide consumers with the necessary information to make an informed decision.

Businesses and contractors must understand that consumers can view and search their credentials. The site will not score or validate credentials; consumers make their own decisions. Therefore, businesses and contractors must take responsibility for ensuring the accuracy of their credentials.

By accurately listing your credentials, you can establish trust with potential customers and stand out from your competitors. Thank you for your cooperation in ensuring the accuracy of the listed credentials.

The credential score for hotels and restaurants is the composite review done by Safe and Trusted Canada. All the review sites form the composite review, and the average is the credential score for that business. The composite review may be available to the consumer if it is completed. Hotels and Restaurants will retain their scores because this is an average of all review sites as Information-Only profiles.

In all cases, consumers will evaluate and make their own decisions.

The business is in the fourth tier of the database.  See the video.

 

The business is displayed above: Information Only Profiles, Basic Subscriptions, and Plus Subscriptions for those who may have signed up for the Plus Subscription after your business in your region or categories. Your listed business credentials also impact the order of display. The Plus Subscription is listed according to our Business Order of Display.

The Business Owner measures every View. The measured views are secured in the business content management pages and are not displayed for public view. See More

Bypass your competition.  Link your profile on Safe and Trusted Canada, and your linking bypasses the competition.  See the video.

 

This means that the user does not have to search you out as a business on the Safe and Trusted site, which could also mean that your customers won’t see your competition.    This advantage could be huge for you as a business owner.

Use your profile to augment your website.  You can add material to your profile more easily than on your website; more importantly, the user doesn’t see your competition.  Imagine all the material on your Safe and Trusted Canada profile that is not on your website.

You can also link to all your local affiliations and any business category affiliations that show why customers should pick you.  Affiliations add to the overall credibility of a business. Go to the content management area in the Basic area and list each under affiliations.  Place the affiliation’s name, then add the link to your listing with that affiliation.  Place the full link next to the name of the affiliation.  If you have a professional subscription, all the affiliations automatically shorten.  This also works for your website and links back to certain parts of your website.    Using Links in Your Business Presentation.

One of our platform’s benefits is that businesses can place their contact information, social media links, business credentials, and all their review sites.  They can highlight what makes them different, promotions, now hiring, and even specific links to their website.  They manage their reviews and send all their information to a potential client in one link.  This allows the business owner to give their clients the whole picture.

Your subscription allows customers to leave reviews.  See the tutorial 

See the video about reviews.

 

All reviews are monitored and posted by the business owner.  The advantage here is that you are always on top of your business as a business owner.  You can request the deletion of corrected customer reviews or even ask the customer for a new review.  As a business, you are not allowed to review your own business.    The advantage is that you are always on top of your business.

One of the problems with reviews is that, too often, a business is blindsided by a negative review.  Never be blindsided again.   See the video.

 

One problem most businesses experience is not asking for reviews. They are worried about negative reviews and are not proactive about asking for feedback.

The Safe and Trusted Review system allows the business owner to proactively ask for customer feedback and become aware of issues that may be unknown to the owner.

Use proactive reviews to identify issues quickly for the business owner.  This will enable the business owner to quickly mitigate issues and resolve customer problems before they escalate out of hand with reviews on websites or even complaints to Better Business Bureau.

Present Your Business Basics First.  We call them credentials.  See the video.

 

Safe and Trusted Canada is looking for businesses with an advertised name registered and meeting licensing requirements for the business’s physical trade area.  Years in business matters on our website.  We are looking for businesses that can clearly articulate that in their credentials in the content management area provided in account access.

What is your business credentials score with consumers? See the video.

Consumers can easily search for a business and select the business they want based on credentials.

Is the Advertised Name registered? Is the business licensed for the business category and city or town? How many years they have been in business is also a factor.  You must guarantee that the listed business credentials are correct if you are a business owner.  Your credentials can be viewed and searched by consumers. The Site will not score or validate the credentials.

If you are a contractor, in addition to the above, do you carry worker’s compensation and liability insurance and do you provide written contracts and warranty? So, in addition to the subscription level, contractor credentials provide the consumer with the separation needed between one business and another. A business must guarantee that the listed contractor’s credentials are accurate.  Your credentials can be viewed and searched by consumers. The Site will not score or validate the credentials.

The credential score for hotels and restaurants is the composite review done by Safe and Trusted Canada.

Safe and Trusted Canada (The Site) provides information to consumers about businesses through an Information Only profile.

A profile using the maximum options and features of a Professional subscription is presented to the business owner so they can see the value of the presentation and what it can mean to their business.  The business can decline the Professional Subscription status and move to a lower subscription type or request removal from the Site.  It is that simple.

See the application.  Credibility Counts

Safe and Trusted Canada is a consumer site.  The Site allows every business to have an account where the owner can manage all aspects of its business at no charge through a basic account.  The only exception is when a business is rated an F-rating with the Better Business Bureau or has shown manufactured reviews on Google.

Information profiles contain links to your website, social media, and other review sites available to the consumer. The Site includes the contact data and other consumer information in one profile. It is as if the consumer did the research, and of course, Safe and Trusted Canada is okay with updating your business information if there are changes. The business is archived if the company is no longer in operation. We look for an email from the business owner or a permanently closed alert on Google. They can also use our Chat widget.

Account Holders can add unlimited content to their business profile depending on their subscription plan.   Since the owner provides the content or authorizes our Admin to take current content from the business website, there can be no risk to the business owner. If the business no longer has account access, it moves to an information-only profile.  Archival of the business occurs if the business is no longer in operation.

Safe and Trusted Canada provides affordable advertising and marketing solutions to credible businesses. Our company has been in business for several years and is interested in legally registered businesses licensed for their city or town with a verifiable business history. Our first sources of information will be Google and the Better Business Bureau, if available.

All our account types are for legitimate businesses.  The business owner must list their credentials and cannot have known issues readily apparent to consumers.  A business owner can apply at any time.

We understand the importance of a solid online presence and practical business management tools. That’s why we are excited to offer affordable website development and software solutions to help you take your business to the next level. Our experienced team of developers can create a custom website tailored to your specific needs, and our software options will streamline your business operations, saving you time and money.

Please take a look at how to manage your business profile.

It may include contact data for the company and links to social media and review sites containing the business profile if available.

 

Safe and Trusted Canada, “The Site”,” now allows consumer reviews. Information-only profiles cannot respond or post reviews because they do not  have account status.  his will give the consumer information that may not be available unless the business takes out an account.

 

Users are responsible for viewing all the links, ratings, and reviews. The review sites can be positive or negative.   See the Better Business Links if they are available.  The links can change at any time.  The business as an Information Only profile is, as it is highlighted, ” Information Only.”

Information Only profiles can ask for archival of their listing if they are no longer in business.  If Google and Better Business Business Bureau have the business as closed, we will also archive and remove it.  They can also ask for removal as they own their business information.  The Site may remove businesses with incomplete information on periodic review.  Safe and Trusted Canada is a neutral site.

As a business,  if your Information Only Profile needs updating, the company can contact The Site.  There is no obligation for you to apply for an account, but suggest this as an option to grow your business further at no cost.  If you are out of business, please advise so that the site admin can archive your profile.

The display order affects how the consumer views businesses on this website.

See the application.  Credibility Counts

The display order is not a factor if the company uses its website’s Safe and Trusted logo and code.  Using the logo and code provided gives a direct link from the company to the profile on Safe and Trusted and bypasses our order of display.

The display order is not a factor when a consumer uses the website’s Credentials Search function, as consumers may be looking for credentials that will impact the display order. For example, looking for businesses that have been in business for ten years or more will significantly affect the view.  

All subscriptions are at different levels. The start date of the business subscription determines placement for any account type, except for Information Only profiles, which are currently listed alphabetically.

Please note that we are now adding a new element to the way all listings are displayed to ensure that the consumer deals with the best business possible. 

As we can provide to the consumer, Google reviews will be a factor in the business display of our database. For example, the business category of Hotels is currently listed alphabetically for Information-Only profiles. Information profiles will gradually change to display the highest Google Review rating. Other account types will follow suit, making our process fair and equitable for all businesses while clarifying the consumer better.  The new order will be made by subscription type, composite rating, and business name alphabetically for hotels and restaurants.  Composite scores are not a factor for other business categories.

Based on additional information, consumers can view each business’s business and contractor credentials and make their own decisions.

Is the Advertised Name registered? Is the business licensed for the business category and city or town? How many years they have been in business is also a factor.  You must guarantee that the listed business credentials are correct if you are a business owner.   Your credentials can be viewed and searched by consumers. The Site will not score or validate the credentials.  Information Only profiles cannot list business credentials.

If you are a contractor, do you carry worker’s compensation and liability insurance and provide written contracts and warranties in addition to the above? So, in addition to the subscription level, contractor credentials offer the consumer the separation needed between one business and another. A company must guarantee that the listed contractor’s credentials are accurate.  Your credentials can be viewed and searched by consumers. The Site will not score or validate the credentials.  Information-only profiles cannot list business credentials.

All information-only profiles will be seen by the date added to the website by business category and trade area. The Site will still link to various review sites and social media for Information-Only profiles. Information-only profiles can be removed if they verify they are no longer in business or at the business owner’s request.

In all cases, consumers will evaluate and make their own decisions.

If a company moves from a Professional Subscription to a Basic Subscription, it loses its subscription level and does not retain the date of its initial signup.

Consumers can refine their search by viewing the business’s external review sites and reviews generated on Safe and Trusted Canada.

Safe and Trusted Canada has a review system. 

See the application. Credibility Counts

The Information  Only profile does not offer business account privileges. As such, the company cannot respond to or post responses to reviews.

It is noted that a Basic subscription is free for the business. The business owner can decide whether to respond to consumers and post reviews through their content management system. The Basic Subscription allows the business owner to opt out of reviews entirely. The system also offers a QR code that the business can print on a card that can be given to customers for feedback. This will produce more reviews for the company.

Consumers can leave a review provided they are a customer of that particular business. The consumer needs to include all the data in the review so that the company clearly understands who left it.

The review process requires an email address from the consumer, and the consumer receives a verification email stating that the review is legitimate. Once verified, the consumer can leave reviews on any other businesses on the Site that they have been customers of. However, they can only leave one review per business.

 

Businesses with accounts can handle reviews, post them, and, of course, respond to them. Safe and Trusted Canada does not handle complaints.

If the consumer has a complaint against a business and has left a review and is not satisfied with the response from the business owner, other options are available. We suggest that you handle a complaint against the company through the Better Business Bureau or seek legal advice. Our Site links to BBB reports, if available, from where you can quickly leave both a review and a complaint.

 

Although we understand the importance of reviews, we are not interested in business owners leaving positive reviews about their business through their employees or people connected to the company.  This would be a violation of our policy.

Safe and Trusted Canada sees problems with some people leaving reviews about businesses in one part of the country and two hours later leaving a review about a company 2000 miles away.  Sometimes, you will see multiple reviews for different companies, all from the same person on the same day.  The business owner can reject a review from anyone who is not an actual customer. 

Our system indicates that business and customer transactions belong only to them. We do not mediate issues, including reviews.

So our system puts the posting of reviews directly into the hands of the business owner with numerous options to correct issues and verify reviews from actual customers who have dealt with the business.

Users can leave a review by placing their email address and, preferably, a phone number in the review area. This allows a business to contact the customer directly to thank them for the review or give a heads-up that there was a problem. The email address will be verified in our process, but only once. This way, users can leave reviews with other businesses on our system.

All Accounts can keep the review for reference, respond directly to the customer, or delete it with a note explaining why the business owner deleted it. The review may also be posted or not posted by the business. Any deleted review is sent to Safe and Trusted Canada administration staff for further review. The Site is looking for companies that can manage and respond to customers.

Posting the review. The business is not allowed to post reviews from those directly connected to the company as an employee or as any staff linked to the business. Doing so would cause concerns because this would be a fraudulent review.

Posting the review with a response.  The area of reply can be for both negative or positive reviews.  The business then posts the review.

Rejection of a review for other reasons.  Other reasons for rejecting a review might be as follows:

• The business is in a court action with the consumer or is in collections.
• The business is not aware that this is a customer.
• The review is a personal attack and not an objective review.
• Employee complaints and issues.
• Business-to-business relationships.

The bottom line is that a small percentage of reviews will be negative, and the business must deal with their legitimate customers.  The business owner will not be blindsided and can address issues they were unaware of before they became major problems on social media and multiple review sites.

The business owner must post reviews through their account access.

The review format allows the consumer to decide whether to leave a positive, neutral, or negative review. It also gives consumers their opinion on whether they are likely or less likely to recommend this business to others. The business owner verifies the review before it can be posted. If the company does not have an account, the rating is always posted, but not the content of the review.

The consumer will only see posted reviews. A rejected review will not show up as part of the overall rating. Suppose the consumer is unhappy with the business and feels the owner is not treating them appropriately. In that case, they can leave reviews on other sites or take legal action.

Clearly, the site indicates in every profile that transactions between the consumer and the business are between the two entities.

Safe and Trusted Canada provides links to review sites associated with the business. If the company has a subscription, the business can opt not to show other review sites other than Google and Better Business Bureau.

The business owner will have links to other review sites through account access.  These review links may be proprietary to a particular site and may not be published automatically.  The owner of the business will be able to see the information that other sites contain to correct information about their business and may publish their review sites if they have a paid account,

The Site automatically reduces the subscription to an Information Only profile should the subscription be cancelled.  The company may also be archived.

About Safe and Trusted Canada

 

Our Independent Business Affiliate program is ideal for business organizations or individuals seeking extra income by assisting other businesses in marketing.

Ideally, they are an independent agency owner who wishes to add other product lines to their business.

Alerts for Information Only Profiles apply as follows.  

An Information-Only profile will have a temporary alert placed on the business if it asks for removal or has gone out of business as an Information-Only profile.

The alert is placed on the business, which will be archived at the same time we place the alert.  The Site will keep the company in our database as archived and not visible.  Pending Google’s update of our site, it may still show up on Google for a short period of time.

A company that has an Information Only profile can ask to have an account and the ability to update their business information through their account-protected username and password.

 

Alerts for Account Holders occur when a company has violated the Site significantly.    Account holders may have an alert for the following three reasons. 

a)  The Account Holder has placed credentials into their profile that they do not have.  The company has committed a major violation of our Site policies and affected the Site’s credibility and all businesses on the Site.  If they do, the company has violated our Site policies significantly. It results in retention on the Site with an Alert Status as an Information Only Profile for one year before archival from the Site. This issue is completely avoidable by the business owner.

b)  Account holders can opt out of reviews.   Consumers can leave reviews about their business on the Safe and Trusted Canada site.  A consumer cannot leave a review if the business has opted out of reviews.   If the business opts into receiving reviews on the Safe and Trusted Site , then the  business is cautioned not to approve reviews directly or indirectly from staff, employees or those connected with the company.   If they do, the company has violated our Site policies significantly. It results in retention on the Site with an Alert Status as an Information Only profile for one year before archival from the Site.  Please note that a company has a choice not to handle reviews by not opting out of reviews from their account.  This then would eliminate this issue entirely. 

c) The account holder has gone out of business.

d) The Alert is placed on the business for one year.  After one year, the company is archived and no longer visible.

What we have often found is that the business owner has a marketing agency looking for increase their search engine optimization for the business.  The marketing agency has no great knowledge of the business or contractor credentials as a result this becomes a liability to the business.

This is why we prefer to deal with the business owner at all times to ensure they understand the purpose of the site and what makes us different from other providers.    The site will work directly with any business owner to ensure everything is accurate and more importantly complete to attract consumers to their business.

The Site automatically reduces the subscription to an Information Only profile should the subscription be cancelled.  The company may also be archived.

Safe and Trusted Canada offers Equote Request to consumers as a part of our total search function for businesses.

Businesses with premium subscriptions can receive requests from consumers who want to gather quotes from several businesses without making a phone call.   Just one lead could make a new customer.

This is an automatic benefit to some key business categories.  The business owner has the ability to opt out of Equote Requests through their content management area.

The consumer selects the trade area and then the business category.

The consumer selects the standard credentials they are looking to business to have first.  Here they will decide on how many years in business are necessary, whether the advertised name of the business is registered and if all the legal requirements for the trade area and category are in place.  The business owner has to guarantee what they place in their credentials area is accurate or if it is subsequently shown that the credentials are false, the business will be faced with an alert notification on their profile for one year and will be removed.

If the business category is a contractor, the consumer yet again determines the contractor credentials they are looking at the business to possess.  Again the credentials placed into the profile by the business owner must be accurate.

The consumer fills out their name, phone number and email address and enough detail that makes it easy for the business to contact you and arrange a quote.

Please note that it is up to the business owner if they want to opt into the request equote system.   They do this through the content management system of the Safe and Trusted platform for their business.

Only businesses that have agreed to be part of the request equote will be seen by the consumer for selection purposes.

This benefit allows the consumer to ask for quotes from up to 10 businesses at one time.  This saves the consumer time and money and is only done after the consumer has listed the credentials they are looking for in hiring a business in the first place.

The consumer can select up to 10 businesses if available and places their email contact into the form as well as their phone number, first and last name.   The consumer adds content to give the business more information as to what they are requesting.  EG. Roofing quote for 1000 square foot house.  Looking for a quote from a business that provides total cleanup and hauling of debris away as part of the overall price.

Admin contacts the consumer to ensure that they are a viable lead or that our Site can provide assistance.   The businesses on our Site will have generally more qualifications, credentials, and history than other sites where there is no system of sort and selection involved.

The business seen first in the database has a greater opportunity to receive requests.  This is a great lead system for the business as well as saving time for the consumer.

The Site automatically reduces the subscription to an Information Only profile should the subscription be cancelled.  The company may also be archived.

A business in the marketplace has links to social media, review sites, and business directories, affiliations, and of course, the website of the company.

Safe and Trusted Canada provides links to everything that we can readily find about the business.   The links could show excellence or a need for improvement.  Safe and Trusted Canada allows the consumer to make their decisions on the quality of the links as well as the quality of the content.  There is no interpretation, nor does Safe and Trusted Canada endorse, validate, recommend or suggest a business.  We provide a system where the consumer sorts and selects companies based on the criteria the user feels vital to them.  

Information Only profiles contain links to your website, social media, and other review sites that are already available to the consumer.  We include your contact data and additional information available to consumers in one profile.  It is as if the consumer did the research, and of course, we will be happy to update your data if there are changes.  The archival of the business occurs if the company is no longer in operation.  The business owner can contact us, and we are more than happy to inform the Better Business Bureau and Google that your business is no longer in operation. They can contact you directly if required.    

Account Holders – To protect consumers, other businesses, and the integrity of the Site, Account holders have higher standards and greater responsibilities as a business.

The reason for this is that the company is now placing content on our Site and has control over reviews, placement of now hiring links, links to affiliations, and can place their credentials into their business profile. 

Should an account no longer be in operation, the business changes from account status to an Information Only profile?  If the firm develops an F-Rating with Better Business Bureau, or reviews show that the company profile shows concerns, the business profile becomes an information Only profile.  

The company develops an alert if they place credentials into their business profile they do not possess or post reviews on their profile from people connected directly or indirectly with the firm. Archival cannot happen if the business has an alert. See Alerts.
