Get Found Where Buyers Look

A Client Directory Playbook for Logistics, Restaurants, and Software Brands

Search engines, maps, and AI assistants trust consistent business profiles. This guide is for you — not an internal checklist. Start with the foundation, add the Canada citations that keep your NAP clean, then claim the industry listings that match how you sell. Skip what does not fit. Finish strong, then revisit quarterly.

How To Use This Playbook

  1. Claim the foundation first. Search Console, maps, and LinkedIn unlock everything else.
  2. Match one industry track. Logistics, restaurants, or software — do not chase every list.
  3. Keep NAP identical. Same name, address, and phone on every profile you touch.

Foundation Profiles

Everyone claims these. They are the baseline for search, maps, and brand entity signals.

Canada First

Business Citations

These reinforce name, address, and phone consistency across Canadian and global directories.

Logistics

Freight, 3PL, and Trucking Directories

Claim the directories buyers and partners already use when they shortlist carriers and warehouses.

Restaurants

Dining, Reviews, and Delivery Profiles

Guests search maps, reviews, and delivery apps first. Keep menus, hours, and photos current.

  • TripAdvisor — Visitor reviews, cuisine tags, and photo strength.
  • Yelp for Business — Local SEO that also feeds Apple Maps.
  • OpenTable — Reservations and review surface on Google and Apple.
  • Foursquare — Claim your venue so partner apps stay accurate.
  • Uber Eats — Delivery profile that surfaces in local search.
  • DoorDash Merchant — Menu, hours, and review marketplace presence.
  • Restaurant Guru — Strong SEO guide — claim and complete your profile.
  • YellowPages.ca — Canadian citation with cuisine categories.
Software

SaaS Reviews and Launch Platforms

Buyers compare tools before they talk to sales. Own the review and alternative pages they already open.

  • G2 — Top SaaS review site; chase categories and badges.
  • Capterra — High-authority software directory and lead flow.

Submission Tips That Protect Your Brand
