Where lake country finds you

A visitor browsing the Gull Lake town page finds your business, taps through, and reaches out — it lands in your dashboard and on your phone.

How it works

Three small steps. One lasting pin on the map.

The whole setup takes about ten minutes — we handle the hard parts (geocoding, hosting, SEO, map rendering). You handle what makes your business great.

Step one

Create your account

Name, category, email, password. That's it — no fifteen-field onboarding form. You're in the dashboard before the kettle boils.

Step two

Pay securely with Stripe

One card. One page. Cancel anytime from the same self-serve dashboard. Your payment method never touches our servers — Stripe handles it end-to-end.

Step three

Finish your profile, go live

Add your photo, bio, phone, socials, and hours. We review within a day and flip the switch — your pin appears on the map and your own profile page.

Questions

What owners ask before signing up

How long until my listing is live?
Once Stripe confirms payment, we review your profile for accuracy — usually within 24 hours. As soon as it's approved, your pin goes up on the map and your profile page is indexed by Google.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Go to your dashboard → Subscription → Manage billing. It opens the Stripe customer portal where you can cancel, pause, or switch plans. When a subscription lapses your listing auto-hides — no admin involvement.
What if I don't have a website?
That's fine. Your profile page on our domain effectively becomes your website — hero image, bio, contact info, socials, hours, map link, and a big Call button. Lots of owners use us as their primary web presence.
Can I upgrade from Standard to Premium later?
Yep. Use the Stripe customer portal from your dashboard to switch plans. Your existing profile, photos, and location tags carry over instantly. The Premium placement appears the moment Stripe confirms the change.
Where exactly does my listing appear?
Three places: (1) the main Businesses map, (2) every lake and town page where your location qualifies (via the geo-tag rules), and (3) your own URL at /businesses/your-slug.
How do leads reach me?
Directly. Your profile shows your phone, email, website, and social links. We don't intermediate or take a cut on leads — customers contact you through whatever method you prefer.
