Getting your business seen online is the way forward.
Being part of a trusted network has huge advantages. It can bring you new connections, new customers and also make work more sociable and fun. Supporting local businesses is only ever a good thing for the community.
Our network has been growing for over 11 years and has become a well known, effective and trusted local resource.
All are welcome to get involved, whether you choose to make use of the free advertising threads in our Facebook group or whether you prefer to sign up for our great value service as an official trusted business... there's something for everyone.
How do I advertise?
How do I advertise?
The way to make the most of the Cheltenham Noticeboard group is to look out for the daily advertising and notices pinned post and comment below it with your details. You can also respond to posts from people looking for recommendations.
If you'd like our endorsement, pre-approval to post on the wall as a Group Expert, directory listings and an announcement in the online magazine, you can register to become a TRUSTED BUSINESS! Six months of official membership will give you a nice push - many directory members choose to stay on much longer as they enjoy the support and ideas. We also run casual networking events such as lunches and coffee mornings so that independent business owners can get to know each other and hang out. Friendships and collaborations often form from these gatherings.
It's taken over a decade to build up this network. When you join as an official trusted business you reach not just our group but also the e-magazine, Twitter, LinkedIn and real life word of mouth.

When you join this trusted recommendations directory, you can be onboarded quickly. You create your own account and listing on Local Noticeboard and we take it from there.
You need to be an ethical business with positive reviews to show that you provide an excellent service or quality product and good communication. This way we can confidently endorse and recommend you and include you among our trusted network of local businesses.

ABOUT
ABOUT
The Cheltenham Noticeboard group was founded in 2015 in order to facilitate recommendations, connections and community notices. It became clear that many local businesses wanted the opportunity to add their information and offers, so we created the daily Advertising & Community Notices pinned post on weekdays where anyone can comment for free advertising. Over the years the group has grown and grown and has become a useful and friendly community for Cheltenham people. It is a multicultural group that celebrates unity, diversity, freedom and choice.
For buying and selling, use the search bar for the keywords 'buying and selling' and you'll find a post with a picture of Del Boy & co from Only Fools & Horses. Lots of other groups are dedicated just to buying and selling but we keep all ours in one post to avoid annoying fellow group members.
We advocate 'adopt, don't shop' and the buying and selling of animals is prohibited. Check out the group rules and help us to keep it all running smoothly by upholding the group motto of KINDNESS.

'I just thought I would message you to say that when I first met you, you made me see that I was more than just a beautician in Glos ❤ I wanted to basically do what you do but for the beauty world! Remember, I came to you for advice initially. Since then, I have been building a platform all over the UK. So, thank you for inspiring me to be more!'

WHY ARE CERTAIN BUSINESSES RECOMMENDED?

A Cheltenham Noticeboard Facebook group member asked us to explain why certain businesses are recommended:
The group was originally set up because friends kept asking for recommendations or to add notices / make connections. I was always adding each one to a website which took ages and needed updating every day, so set up a group where they could post things themselves. Then they invited their friends and family too and it grew from there. Didn't expect it to get this big. We wouldn't have time to moderate the group just for fun, so the businesses on the directory pay for our time doing it, which also means they get priority and can post on the wall as Group Experts. They're all checked and trusted, and where relevant we use their services ourselves so that we can personally recommend them. Anyone wanting free advertising is welcome to use the daily pinned post where they can comment with ads and notices. In this way we give everyone the opportunity to be seen.
