Yelp! I need somebody

The Beatles may cringe at us paraphrasing their lyrics this way, but they did record on the Apple label, so we think it’s okay!

We’d like to ask for 5 minutes of your time to help us grow our business. If you feel comfortable, could you please go to Yelp (www.yelp.com) and write a review for us? Here’s a link to our profile: http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=plumbing&ns=1&find_loc=westminster%2C+md (you will need to copy and paste, sorry.)

While we hope we’ve earned 5 stars and glowing reviews we certainly encourage you to rate and rank as you see fit. It should only take you a few minutes (even if you have to create profile).

For those that don’t know about Yelp, it’s purpose is to connect people with great local businesses. They are one of the world’s largest sites for user generated content when it comes to reviewing local businesses. It’s becoming bigger and bigger and more people are using it every day to find great local restaurants, dentists, plumbers, etc. We anticipate that as more and more people begin to use the internet to not only find companies but to drive their buying decisions, sites like Yelp will become extremely popular when it comes to finding local service based businesses. There are others out there, but Yelp just raised $100MM to help it expand and we certainly want to make sure we are positioned to take benefit from their increased presence.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer and any reviews/ratings you contribute!
