We know what it actually feels like to market a local business.
You're great at what you do. The marketing part? That's a different job no one warned you about, and it keeps changing the rules. If any of this sounds familiar, you're not doing it wrong. The system was never built for you.
You've poured money into ads that vanish.
Boosted posts and pay-per-click eat your budget and disappear in a day. Worse, a growing share of what you pay for was never a customer at all.
Google and Yelp bury you unless you pay.
The big directories reward whoever spends the most, pushing honest local businesses further down the page.
Your social reach keeps shrinking, and there's no time to chase it.
You run the floor, the books, and the staff, so posting always falls to the bottom of the list. And when you do post, followers you worked years to earn barely see it anymore unless you pay to boost it again.
The big chains drown you out.
National brands with national budgets fill every search result, even when a neighbor wanted something local.
We're local business owners too. We got tired of paying just to be seen in our own towns, so we built the platform we wished existed: no ads, no algorithm, no pay-to-win. If you're local, you deserve to be found. We'll handle that part for you.
The platforms you depend on profit from your invisibility.
Google rewards whoever spends the most on ads. Yelp buries you unless you pay to be featured. Social reach has been sliding for years, and every year it costs more just to stay visible in your own community.
Great local businesses go undiscovered every day. Not because they aren't good enough, but because the system was never built for them. TownVue was built to fix that.
The old way
- Pay to rank above competitors
- Ads push your listing down
- An algorithm controls who sees you
- Spend more every year or disappear
The TownVue way
- Equal visibility for every business
- Zero ads inside any listing
- Ranked by location & relevance only
- Free to claim, $10/month for more
Not just a listing. Your whole local presence, handled.
One boosted Facebook post costs more and is gone in 24 hours. Claiming your listing is free and works every single day: on the map, on Google, in AI search. For $10 a month you add the tools to reach the people who find you.
Be the answer when a neighbor asks ChatGPT.
More people now start with AI than with a search bar. Your TownVue listing is built so the tools they ask can find you, trust you, and recommend you by name.
Get found everywhere
- On the map and your town's hub page, where neighbors go to see what's nearby.
- On the category pages you fit: we maintain 100+ category types, so your listing turns up on the ones that match what you do, like "brunch" or "plumbers near me."
- Fair rotation and Top Picks placement: visibility you earn, never visibility you buy. Every claimed listing is eligible, free or paid.
- Every town you serve: 3 towns with Plus, unlimited with Pro. One listing, shown on each town's hub page.
Win on Google
- A reciprocal link that search engines read as a local relevance signal.
- Rich Google results powered by structured data: your ratings, hours, and location, shown right in search.
- Optimized images and snippets, so your photos and a factual summary surface accurately.
Tools that replace five subscriptions
- A full analytics dashboard: listing views, favorites, phone taps, website clicks, and directions, with email reach on its own line. Pro adds impressions, click-through, and AI-assistant referrals.
- Direct messages and a public Q&A, so no customer inquiry slips through.
- One active coupon, plus automatic updates to residents who favorited you. They can print it or have it emailed, we remind them before it ends, and every step shows in your analytics. Pro adds unlimited offers and scheduling.
- A weekly favorites tally, so you know when neighbors save your listings.
- A menu link and custom address, included. Blog and showcase video come with Pro.
TownVue markets you, too
- The Thursday Weekly Picks and Monthly Local Round-Up emails, both feature businesses, events, and experiences for local customers.
- Automatic emails to your fans: listing updates, new events you post, and day-before event reminders all go out for you.
- A monthly Business Brief with your listing's own numbers: views, email reach reported separately, favorites, and clicks.
- Consideration for our social media spotlights, at no extra cost. Pro gets two guaranteed spotlights a year.
- Discoverable by voice: Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant when neighbors ask what's nearby.
- Rich link previews whenever your page gets shared, anywhere.
Everything above comes with Plus. No pay-to-win, nobody can buy a higher position in results, on any plan.
See exactly what your listing is doing.
Listing views, favorites, phone taps, website clicks, and directions, all in one dashboard, with 7, 30, and 90-day views and your top performer surfaced automatically. Pro adds impressions, click-through, and AI-assistant referrals.
This is what your listing looks like.
Photos, your story, hours, a map, coupons, owner-written FAQs, customer Q&A, reviews, and social links: everything a customer needs to choose you, all on one page.

$10 on TownVue vs. one boosted Facebook post.
Built for businesses that are done chasing the algorithm.
I was looking for a place to advertise my business outside of the social media mess we're living with, and came across TownVue. I really think this is the way things are going; it's like a billboard for my local town instead of the entire world.
I was just complaining to a friend about how keeping up with social media trends is going to be the death of me. It's like chasing a carrot I'll never reach: new audio sounds I have to use, certain dance moves I have to learn. TownVue doesn't require any dance moves, and I'm here for it.
Owners everywhere are claiming their corner of TownVue.
From cafés and plumbers to florists, studios, and farms, local businesses across the country are taking control of how their town finds them. Yours is already there, claim it.
Claiming your listing takes about 2 minutes.

You didn't open your doors to become a marketer.
You're great at what you do. You're just tired of being invisible in your own town, watching your reach shrink while the bill to "boost" it climbs. TownVue handles being found, so you can get back to the work you actually love.
Local should be easy to find.
- Visibility shouldn't go to the highest bidder.
- Your neighbors should find you without scrolling past a hundred ads.
- A great local business deserves to be discovered, not buried by an algorithm.
- Being found shouldn't cost anything. Ten dollars should buy real tools, not a 24-hour boost.
Businesses in your area are already being found. Yours should be too.
Claiming takes about 2 minutes and costs nothing. And every day your listing is live, local customers can find you, save you, and come back to you.
