CityLocal is run by local people who care about local issues and want to encourage local trade. Our franchisees are specialist ‘Local Business Promoters’ and work closely with outstanding businesses and lift their profile within the local community putting them in touch with their customers, the local public.

What We Do

For businesses that wish to be found on Google, CityLocal can offer highly sophisticated and keyword targeted business listings. Thousands of small and medium sized businesses have very little, if any presence on the internet. Local businesses need internet presence to be able to compete in an ever more aggressive market. Simply having a website is no longer good enough, especially if it cannot be found. Being found easily is vital if they are to attract business, and this is exactly where CityLocal can offer a real service! As well as promoting our clients on the web, we also offer offline promotions and mail drops. This adds another strong revenue source for CityLocal franchisees.

 
The Advantages of Running a CityLocal Franchise

Below is a list of attributes that we believe any new business should have to lay the foundations from which a successful business can be developed:

  • High demand
  • Low maintenance
  • No stock
  • Residual income
  • Respectability
  • Low-cost
  • Low-risk
  • A real source of income


 Our Ideal Franchisee

Typically, the characteristics that our franchisees have are as follows:
  • They are ambitious and want to create a better work life balance for themselves.
  • They enjoy meeting new people, are sociable and wish to become a respected member of their community.
  • They are self motivated and are prepared to take responsibility for their own results.
  • They are prepared to dedicate a minimum of 20 hours per week to this business.
  • They are well organised and can manage their time effectively.
 

Most of our franchisees don’t have any sales background and you don’t need a lot of technical computer skills either in running your own CityLocal business in your area.

What Our Franchisees Say

"From the training through to today, I have been assisted and helped throughout the whole time. I feel that with CityLocal, a franchisee does get the best of both worlds, as you are given the freedom and control in order to dictate in
which direction you wish the business to follow. This has given me the autonomy to build the business up and really develop my own business skills."


Priyesh Vaghjiani - CityLocal Camden

"When customers have seen the depth of the site, they have fully understood why Citylocal is the website to be on. It is fresh and has great local content, automatically updated and all in one place. Since starting the business, I cannot fault the help and support received from the team at Head Office. The rapport with Head Office and other Franchisees is also good and I am pleased to be part of such a great team."

David Williamson – CityLocal Cornwall
