MAKE SURE YOU STAND OUT THIS YEAR FOR £1.84 PER WEEK
Over 13,000 customer searches last month!

 

In the last month, over 13,000 people who are looking to make a product or service purchase turned to Garden Trader to help locate their local dealer.  It is important that the public understand the true value of product knowledge and customer service provided by our amazing dealer network.  That is why we have been introducing video clips of real dealers in the UK to humanise decision making online and physically direct customers to dealers.  Thanks to all of you who have helped us with filming and we will be adding more soon. Garden Trader is delivering on average 550 potential customers every year to individual dealer's pages.  Because of the site promotional criteria, we know the majority are actively looking to make a purchase (product or service).  All subscribed dealers can easily check their listing's analytics just by logging in to see for themselves just how Garden Trader is helping their business. At £1.84 per week, we don't believe any other form of highly targeted digital promotion can get anywhere close to this value.  Better still, it was designed to promote our highly skilled dealer network in the UK and helping fight discount based zero value online retailers and DIY stores. If you do wish to re-subscribe or indeed register it is easy and takes just a few minutes.
