Payments can be made by credit card, cheque or electronic transfer. There are no refunds for paid accounts as The Site gives the Basic Account at no charge for evaluation purposes of our Site Content Management System.

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 make their decision. It is crucial that businesses and contractors 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.

It is essential that businesses and contractors understand that their credentials can be viewed and searched by consumers. The site will not score or validate credentials; consumers make their own decisions. Therefore, it is crucial that businesses and contractors 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 that average is the credentials 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 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 content management pages for the business and are not displayed for public view. See More

Bypass your competition. Simply 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 in many ways.

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 in the process. 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 of them 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 and even specific links to their website. They manage their own 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 of the problems 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 unknown to the business 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 their credentials, increasing their overall credibility score with consumers.

In addition to the Business credentials, if you are a contractor, The Site allows the contractor to indicate that they have liability insurance, worker’s compensation, and warranties in writing.    We are looking for businesses that can clearly articulate their contractor credentials, increasing their overall credibility score with consumers.

The business owner agrees to receive Safe and Trusted Canada emails regarding customer reviews, instructions, updates and monthly newsletters. See your content management system for your business in the video. 

Our content management system allows businesses unlimited options, including managing, marketing, and growing their business.

What causes an alert? As with all subscriptions, the company must be responsible and accountable. Business owners with subscriptions must ensure the accuracy of credentials in their profiles. The business owner can ask all the customers for reviews, post reviews, and handle private issues. The business owner must ensure that they do not post reviews from anyone connected with their company. See Alerts.

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

Standard subscriptions can refer to businesses that they believe should also be a Professional, Advanced or Standard Subscription to Safe and Trusted Canada.  Suppose a business meets our criteria and is accepted.

Monthly subscriptions paid yearly are 18.58 plus GST.  Monthly subscriptions may be cancelled with 60 days’ notice.  The daily investment, if paid yearly, not including tax, is $0.54.

If paid yearly, not including tax, the daily investment is $0.40.  The monthly subscription may be reduced to $14.41 plus GST.

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 make their decision. It is crucial that businesses and contractors 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 for 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 that average is the credentials 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 third tier of the database.   See the video.

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

The Business Owner measures every View. The measured views are secured in the content management pages for the business 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 in many ways.

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 in the process.  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 of them 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 the business can place their contact information, links to their social media, business credentials, and links to all their review sites.  They can highlight what makes them different and even specific links to their website.  They manage their own 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 customer reviews or even ask the customer for a new review.  As a business, you are not allowed to review your own business.   You can ask for reviews from all your customers without worrying about what the review will say.  Your advantage is that you are always on top of your business.

One of the problems 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 ask for feedback from their customers proactively and instantly become aware of issues unknown to the business 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 their credentials in the content management area are provided in account access.

In addition to the Business credentials, if you are a contractor, The Site allows the contractor to indicate that they have liability insurance, worker’s compensation, and warranties in writing.    We are looking for businesses that can clearly articulate their credentials in the content management area provided in account access and add to their overall credential score with consumers.

The business owner agrees that they will receive Safe and Trusted Canada emails regarding customer reviews, instructions, updates, and monthly newsletters. See your content management system for your business in the video. 

Our content management system allows businesses unlimited options, including managing, marketing, and growing their business.

What causes an alert? As with all subscriptions, the company must be responsible and accountable.  Business owners with subscriptions must ensure the accuracy of credentials in their profiles. The business owner can ask all the customers for reviews, post reviews, and handle private issues.  The business owner must ensure that they do not post reviews from anyone connected with their company. See Alerts.

Some business categories are not part of the Site.  Our current category options are the same in every city and town.   See Saskatoon as an example. The Site is currently expanding. See other areas.

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

Promotional Discounts for the Standard Plan

Please see our Terms and Conditions of Use and the Legal Disclaimers and Policies.

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.

There are currently two discounts offered for businesses that qualify. All discounts are time-sensitive and may be discontinued at any time.

The location of a business in a province with less than 1.5 million people reduces that Standard subscription by $25.00. The discount will also apply if your business is situated in a province of more than 1.5 million people but does not advertise in one of the major cities.

The location of a business in a province with less than 1.5 million people reduces the Standard subscription by $25.00.  The business must advertise in their own province and cannot use trade areas from other provinces.   The Atlantic provinces are an exception to that rule.  Some exceptions apply to businesses that border two provinces.

 

Your Standard subscription reduces to $174.00 plus GST for a yearly subscription paid annually in a one-time payment.   If paid yearly, not including tax, the total daily investment is $0.47.  The monthly subscription is reduced to $16.50 plus GST.  The reason for this discount is to equalize our services, as some cities in the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, and British Columbia have a greater population base than some of the smaller provinces.

A business that embeds the Safe and Trusted link to its website reduces the Standard subscription by $25.00. This discount is because the business owner is maximizing their business potential and attesting that the content in their Safe and Trusted profile is correct, including business credentials, affiliations and links.

Please note that if the user selects the Accredited and Professional application, they do not have to link their profile to their website for this discount.  Accredited and Professional businesses are monitored by their affiliation.

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 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 unknown to the business owner.

Use proactive reviews to identify issues quickly for the business owner.  This will enable the business owner to quickly mitigate issues and resolve problems with customers 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 that have an advertised name that is 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.

In addition to the Business credentials, if you are a contractor, The Site allows the contractor to indicate that they have liability insurance, worker’s compensation, and warranties in writing.    We are looking for businesses that can clearly articulate their credentials in the content management area provided in account access and add to their overall credential score.

The business owner agrees that they will receive Safe and Trusted Canada emails regarding customer reviews, instructions, updates and monthly newsletters. See your content management system for your business in the video. 

Our content management system allows the business unlimited options including the ability to manage, market, and grow their business.

What causes an alert? As with all subscriptions, the company must be responsible and accountable.  Business owners with subscriptions must ensure the accuracy of credentials in their profiles. The business owner can ask all the customers for reviews, post reviews, and handle private issues.  The business owner must ensure that they do not post reviews from anyone connected with their company. See Alerts. 

Some business categories are not part of the Site.  Our current category options are the same in every city and town.   See Saskatoon as an example. The Site is currently expanding. See other areas.

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

20 Key Differences From Other Providers.

Reasons to Link Your Profile.

Make a difference in your business.  Sign up today.

Information Only profiles produce a business profile based on what consumers would readily find about the company on the internet.  Account holders can manage their complete profile.

See 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 do not have the ability to respond or post reviews because they have account status.  This 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.

Business Order of Display

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

The display order is not a factor if the company uses the Safe and Trusted logo and code on its business website.  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 where a consumer uses the Credentials Search function of the website, as consumers may be looking for credentials that will impact the display order.  For example, if they are looking for businesses that have been in business for ten years or more, that will significantly affect the view.

All subscriptions are at different levels.  The start date of the subscription of the business determines placement.

The consumer can view the business and contractor credentials offered by that business and make their decisions from there.

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. All the review sites form the composite review, and that average is the credentials 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 for Information Only profiles.  Their score is not a factor when they have account status.  Consumers of course, will see the different review sites and make their own decisions.

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

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

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

Tier 1 – Professional – See Professional Subscription

Consumer Equote

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

This is now part of our application form.

See the application form.  Credibility Counts In Canada

Got Questions? Credibility Questions and Links

Businesses with premium subscriptions become eligible to receive requests from consumers who want to gather quotes from several businesses at once without making a phone call.   

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.

What Causes an Alert About A Business?

Alerts apply to any business. Alerts for Information Only Profiles apply as follows.  

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

For Information Only profiles, the alert is placed on the business, and the business will be archived at the same time that we place the alert. 

We will keep the business in our database as archived and not visible.  This may still show up on Google pending their update of our Site.   

This ensures that our Site is up to date and that we are not adding businesses that have indicated they no longer want to be part of our Site. 

 

Alerts for Account Holders occur when a company has committed a major violation of the Site.   

 If they have never had an account, they can never have an alert.   There are three reasons for an alert.  

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 committed a major violation of our Site policies. It results in retention on the Site with an Alert Status as an Information Only Profile for a period of one year before archival from the Site. 

b)  Account holders can approve business reviews for their business.  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 committed a major violation of our Site policies. It results in retention on the Site with an Alert Status as an Information Only profile for a period of one year before archival from the Site.  

c) The account holder has gone out of business. 

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

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

Become an Independent Business Affiliate Today

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

The Independent Affiliate is not an employee, works their own hours, and covers their own expenses. They must have worker’s compensation clearance and will be covered if they are in Saskatchewan by Safe and Trusted Canada. 

They must have worker’s compensation clearance if they reside out of the province of Saskatchewan or be a business operation in another province. 

The ideal client will need to have:

  • High-Speed Internet
  • Preferably a desktop with two or more monitors
  • Superior computer skills including research, and database entry. 
  • Superior writing and verbal communication skills.
  • Long-distance plan, mobile phone and professional office setup. 

Our structure gives the independent affiliate commission on all subscription types for both initial and renewal accounts for all paid accounts.  Ask us more by phone or email.  

We would also work with non-profit organizations giving their membership more exposure on the internet with a direct link to that organization in the business profile.  For non-profits, this would give a one-time referral fee. 

In addition, we offer a range of other products like reputation management, social media marketing and search engine optimization.    

We train you in what we want as an organization. Compensation is restricted to paid account referrals and renewals.   If interested, and you are a fit for us as Independent Business Affiliate then contact us at office@safeandtrusted.com

Safe and Trusted Canada makes it easier for businesses to display why consumers should choose them over others.  So as an Independent Business Affiliate it is not your job to select and sort businesses based on your personal opinion.  The system we have will automatically provide information necessary for the consumer to sort and select businesses based on credentials, review sites, and content from the business owner.  This is why we place the following content in every business profile. 

The Site automatically reduces the subscription to an Information Only profile should the subscription be cancelled.  The business may also be archived. When We Archive a Business.

How Reviews Are Processed?

Safe and Trusted Canada has a review system

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

A consumer can leave a review,  The consumer will not see the content of the review but will see a star rating.  Each subsequent review adds to the star rating for the business so even if a business does not have an account the consumer will see an aggregate of the reviews received at Safe and Trusted Canada. 

Safe and Trusted Canada might complete composite reviews based on our research of other review sites.  They will be for the hospitality industry which includes accommodations and restaurants.  If a restaurant or accommodation has a Safe and Trusted Canada composite review, the review score will become the credentials score. 

 

Businesses that have accounts can handle reviews, post them and, of course, respond to them.  If you have a complaint against a business  We suggest if you have a complaint against the company that you handle that through Better Business Bureau or seek legal advice.   Our Site links to BBB reports if available.   

Safe and Trusted Canada links to several review sites and may highlight businesses that show high reviews from customers as a composite review.  It will be dated and marked as from Safe and Trusted Canada.    

We suggest that the business applies for a Basic Account where they will be able to respond to and post reviews. Companies that are no longer in operation will have their business archived.  We also advise consumers in the notes area of every profile that they are responsible for all transactions with that business.   

Business owners will have the ability to have a Basic Subscription at no cost and may opt for other subscription types. 

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 that is not an actual customer. 

Our system indicates that transactions between a business and a customer belong only to them. We do not mediate issues.  This includes 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 that have dealt with the business.  

Users can leave a review by placing their email address and preferably a phone number in the review area.  The purpose of this is so a business can contact the customer directly to thank them for the review or as a heads up that there was a problem.  The email address will be verified in our process, but only once.  In 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 the review with a note as to why it has been deleted by the business owner.  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 their customers.  

Posting the review. The business is not allowed to post reviews from those directly connected to the business as an employee or as any staff linked to the business. Doing so causes concerns, and we considered it 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.

Please note that a customer can ask to have their review removed from the business profile at any time by contacting office@safeandtrusted.com 

The bottom line is that a small percentage of reviews will be negative, and the business has an obligation to deal with their legitimate customers.

The business owner must post reviews through their account access. 

The review format gives the consumer the decision to leave a positive, neutral or negative review. It also provides the consumer with 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.

The consumer will only see posted reviews.  A rejected review will not show up as part of the overall rating.  If the consumer is not happy with the business and feels that they are not being dealt with appropriately by the business owner, they can always leave reviews at other sites or take legal action.   

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

Safe and Trusted Canada provides links to review sites associated with the business in the business account area if they have an account.  We provide links to Google and Safe and Trusted Canada in public view. 

The business owner will have links to other review sites through account access.  These review links may be proprietary to a particular site and will 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, 

Check Better Business Bureau for any extra information by going to bbb.org 

The last point is the most important.  Safe and Trusted Canada could remove account access at any time, and the business may be archived from our database on request if they are out of business as well. 

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

When Do We Archive a Business?

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. 

The Site automatically reduces the subscription to an Information Only profile should the subscription be cancelled.  The business may also be archived.  See When We Archive a Business.

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 businesses based on the criteria the consumer feels important to them.

Category Options For Your Business.

Safe and Trusted Canada makes it easier for businesses to add categories and subcategories to their profile.   The consumer does not use this to find the business. They search on the live site, and we never know what search terms they will use, so that is the reason we have so many duplicate subcategories.

At the top of the page are several tabs where the business can completely manage its profile. You can see we have highlighted the Categories Tab.

 

Hotels and Restaurants are in the starred area at the top of our database called Accommodations. You will find subsequent categories in Hotels, Food, Restaurants, Travel and Wedding. If you serve food, you may also be able to use the categories Banquet room and Catering. Bed and Breakfasts have their separate category.

Everything Auto starts with the starred area Auto Accessories, with 28 categories in this section. Each category has numerous subcategories.

If you are a contractor, look to the starred area Contractors. Several categories are grouped and are also starred.   As an example, plumbing has several other categories that Plumbers often use. In total, there are 76 contractor areas with numerous subcategories.   Our Professional account allows the business to list up to 60 subcategories. If you have an accreditation with the Better Business Bureau, you have 20 subcategories at no charge.

If you are a business professional with an affiliation that is required to conduct business, your business is granted the Plus Account at no charge. This gives your business 20 subcategories at no charge. Look for the starred Business Professional category, which follows Contractor. Highlighted areas display major categories with other related categories following.

If you are a health professional with an affiliation that is required to conduct business, your business is granted the Plus Account at no charge. This gives your business 20 subcategories at no charge. Look for the starred Health Professional, which follows the Business Professional categories.   Please note that the business needs to have an affiliation to use the Massage Services area. We will not authorize businesses that cannot show an appropriate affiliation.

All other business categories start at the highlighted category, Advertising. Key groups are highlighted with associated categories. There are 74 categories in this area.

The last highlighted group, Other, serves businesses that may not fit a particular major category.   There are currently 46 categories, all listed in alphabetical order.

Safe and Trusted Canada may add category groups if there is demand from businesses or consumers.
