It was pointed out to me recently a hideous new charge that Locanto is now charging AMP shops to allow them to show a phone number and or a web site address ,this is on top of the normal advertising fee around the $200 pm.
This means that they no longer can show contact numbers in the copy of the ads anymore , and only by paying another $129-$258 per month can they show a number. As a past marketing manager I have never heard of a advertising platform charging more just to show a telephone number, the most basic need of an ad .Talk about being held to ransom., better to support TS advertising.
The other downside of all this even after paying more to have their phone number revealed , you have to register with locanto to be able to then reveal the contact number of the shop.
So expect the rates for the shop costs to increase in light of this new charge...bring back cracker I say
