Oh yeah, I’ve been there. When I first opened my shop, I thought social media alone would bring in customers, but nope! I finally listed my business in a couple of local directories, and it made a huge difference. More foot traffic, more calls, and people even mentioned they found me through them! If you haven’t yet, check out the Mount Vernon, WA Business Directory—I saw a solid boost after getting listed. Definitely worth a shot if you’re struggling!
