Own a Business in Palm Harbor? Join Patch in 3 Minutes

Palm Harbor business owners have a freebie from Palm Harbor Patch.

We want to help get the word out about your business to the Palm Harbor community. It's a free service we provide to businesses located in Palm Harbor because we think that businesses play a vital role in communities. No strings attached. How cool is that?

Your listing in the Places Directory has important information that customers need to know; like a description that explains what your business is, your hours, and accepted payment methods. 

Your customers can also give you reviews and rate your business. 

As a business owner or manager, you can "claim" your Places Directory Listing. This allows you to do things like-

• See all kinds of great information about your business on Patch including how many users have rated, or reviewed your business.
• Add an unlimited number of photos or videos to show people what items you sell, introduce readers to your staff, give potential customers a peek inside your business, or show people whatever else you want!
• See how many people follow your Places Directory listing.
• E-mail your customers with updates about your business.
• E-mail your customers suggesting they leave you a review.
• Link the Places Directory listing to your Facebook and Twitter accounts.
• You can add additional information about your business. 

So, how do you "Claim" a listing? You can watch the video above, or, we've also listed the steps below.  

1. Owners or managers can go to "Claim Your Business" which you can also find by placing your curser over the "Places"category that is located on the top of the Palm Harbor Patch page.
2. Then type the name of your business in the "Find Your Business" box
3. Fill out the rest of the form, and click the "Submit Claim" button
4. You'll need to sign up to become a member of Patch if you have not yet joined. This is free and does not cost anything. You'll be asked for your email and you need to create a Patch login.
5. Shortly after you complete the claim request, someone from Patch will contact you to verify your authenticity. You'll then be approved. 
6. Once you're approved, you'll see a "Manage Your Listing" button appear on the top of your Places Directory page. Whenever you log in, just click the button to be taken to your dashboard.
