How to Manage Trade Areas

The first thing to remind you is that your subscription type determines the number of business trade areas.  Our system allows the following. 

Please note that Accommodations, Hotels, Food, and Restaurants automatically generate the maximum number of trade areas at every subscription level.

Basic Subscription  – 1 Trade Area 
Plus Subscription – 1 Trade Area 
Standard Subscription – 5 Trade Areas
Advanced Subscription – 10 Trade Areas 
Professional Subscription – 20 Trade Areas. 

The Basic and Plus Subscription types allow one trade area.  So generally, this is the physical location of the business.  Adding Trade Areas is not an option for those subscription types.

Some companies want to place their business presence in other trade areas within their province or even in other provinces. You can set your business in up to 20 trade areas, dependent on your subscription type. 

This video is about managing your trade areas for your business profile.   

 

All provinces and territories have their largest city listed first, followed by the province’s capital city.   Some provinces have only one city listed, and the largest city is also the capital.  All other regions are then listed in alphabetical order. 

As a reminder, if you are a contractor, you must remember to be licensed in any trade area that you select or will do so if you retain work in that area. 

If you ask a consumer through your trade area assignment to come to your storefront business, you only need to be licensed in your physical location.
