DEADLINE MIDNIGHT TONIGHT
Be Visible For £1.84 Per Week

Thank you to the majority of dealers who have now re-subscribed for 2019 and indeed those new dealers who have joined the online success of Garden Trader.  In fairness to them all, we will be taking down those listings who have not re-subscribed at midnight.  So if you wish to re-subscribe or indeed register for the first time then now is the time to do so.  In our launch phase, on average Garden Trader delivered 560 users who were actively looking to make a purchase (product or service)  to individual dealer profile pages.  The majority of these also clicked through to individual dealer web sites - so extremely warm leads.  Not bad in a tough year.  All subscribed dealers can easily check their listing's analytics just by logging in and see for themselves just how Garden Trader is helping their business. Garden Trader delivers amazing value for just £1.84 per week and we don't believe any other form of highly targeted digital promotion can rival this.  Better still, it is promoting our highly skilled dealer network in the UK and helping fight discount based zero value online retailers and DIY stores.
