Now all you have to decide is what to say in your Service Listing - which is the listings under the alphabetical headings that someone would see in addition to your display ad. If you believe your business name and the heading is self-explanatory, we will list merely the name of your business, your name and your phone numbers.
Please suggest what category headings you'd prefer for your service listings & where you'd prefer your display ad(s) to go in the comments section. We try to get your ad close to your service listing, but if we can't we rotate who gets to be closest every other year.

Be sure to tell us what you would like my (fifteen words or less) Service Listing(s) to say when you send in your hard copy via snail-mail. (your name, phone number(s) and "see ad p. _ doesn't count in the 15.) Otherwise we'll just list the name of your business, your name, & phone numbers under the heading we think is most appropriate.
