Nicelocal is Switching to Annual Plans

New York, January 21st, 2023

The Nicelocal recommendation service is switching to annual plans. Companies no longer need to worry about extending their monthly paid service plans.

The service’s marketing research and analysis of feedback from companies that have opted for one of Nicelocal’s paid plans for promoting their business in the catalog have shown that:

  • Long-term contracts are much more cost-effective for companies since the price of an annual plan is 30—40% less than that of a monthly plan.

  • It’s easier for companies to plan their expenses a year in advance than to add funds to their Nicelocal business accounts every month.

  • It’s simpler and more intuitive for businesses to schedule their marketing campaigns since they know what their PR specialists’ workload will be over the course of the year.

Feedback from Nicelocal’s business partners has also shown that long-term collaboration yields better results for companies. After all, one or two months often isn’t enough to get a sense of how many more clients a business can get by promoting itself or how much the company’s revenue might have changed during that time.
