Why Are Online Directories So Important for UK Manufacturers?
In 2020, the need for manufacturers to be listed on a high-visibility online directory has never been so high. Online manufacturing directories allow buyers and sellers to discover trade opportunities, whilst simultaneously promoting their company online.
A recent study found that internet sales accounted for 11.5% of B2B sales - a number which is consistently rising. The Acquity Group State of B2B Procurement study also found that 94% of B2B buyers always conduct some form of online research before purchasing a business product.
Members of Made in Group are listed in multiple high traffic directories, including their regional Made in the Midlands and Made in Yorkshire directories, alongside the "Britain to the World" Made in London directory. These directories allow for potential customers and business associates to filter by the likes of Services, Sectors and Accreditations - offering maximum visibility for your company.
A Made in Group membership is the most efficient way to raise your online profile, share your content and nurture your reputation within the manufacturing community. Browse our range of memberships to find out more.
