The operating model
Selected cities. Selected professions. One recognized partner per category.
Downtown Directories uses a focused category model rather than an unrestricted listing directory. Each platform is developed for its own downtown market and local professional environment.
Category exclusivity
Participation is limited to one recognized provider in each selected category within each city platform.
Independent professionals
Every provider remains independently owned and responsible for services, advice, appointments and client relationships.
