Thank you for sharing what you make and what you do with this network. Listing a product or a service is free, it goes live the moment you publish, and it never expires.

So what does that mean for you? Each listing gets its own page that search engines can find. It shows on your profile and on your company page. Add a photo, and it rotates into the feed for everyone. And every buyer is one click from asking you for a quote, or requesting your service.

Open Products and click List a Product, or open Services and click List a Service. You can start before you sign in. When you publish, you sign in or create your account, and you come right back to your listing, with everything you typed.

For a product, give it a short name, a category and a description. Add the brand and model, technical details, and up to three industries it serves. Set a fixed price, a price range, or contact for pricing. Type prices the way you write them, commas and all. Then specifications, availability, shipping, and where it ships from.

For a service, say whether it's on-site, remote or both. Choose your reach: your state, a region, the whole country, or worldwide. It decides who sees your listing. Add your rates, by the hour or a fixed price, and your overtime. Say whether travel and expenses are included, and describe how you work.

Add up to ten photos. You frame each one to fit the listing, and nothing on the page is cut off. You can add a video link too. Photos need an account, so if you started signed out, you sign in, and your typing is still there.

Here's what happens next. Click Publish Listing. You'll see that your listing is live, and a button to view it. You can boost it, so it's shown first and more often, always marked Boosted. The price is shown before you choose. Your listings live under My Listings, where you edit, pause or boost them. You can also edit them right on your profile, wherever you see them. Thank you for every listing you add. Each one makes this marketplace more useful for everyone.

There's no risk in listing, asking for a quote, or requesting, ever. And on any contract, nothing is committed until the customer clicks Hire, or the professional clicks Accept Offer.

A company's catalog often lives in a brochure, a PDF, or a sales rep's memory. On the old site, your products and services were one box of text on your profile. Now each one is its own listing, with photos, prices, reach and a page of its own. And what you wrote on the old site is already here, one listing for each item.

Your people, your products and your services, all in one place, working for you. This is the future of work.

Thank you for your time, and for building this network with us. Somewhere right now, a buyer is searching for exactly what you sell. You just couldn't see each other. Now you can. So look after the person next to you out there, and get home tonight. Questions? Text 586-770-8083, or email Info@AutomateAmerica.com for more information. Stay safe. Stay free. Zero friction.
