Set your business apart with Buy With Confidence

The marketplace is full of different companies, however, how do consumers or other businesses know which ones will give good customer service and are trustworthy? Since 1999, the Buy With Confidence scheme has tried to create a safe platform for local businesses, where anyone can find the company they need (from builders to marketing consultants or solicitors) knowing that their search will lead to solid organisations that will provide five star customer service.

Buy With Confidence is the largest scheme of its kind nationally and continues to expand its geographical coverage. It is one of the few in the country to cover almost all types of businesses and, also, is run by Trading Standards (with a team that knows about customer rights and will act with the letter and spirit of the law).

HOW DOES IT HELP YOUR BUSINESS?

So why is Buy With Confidence good for your business? The ‘Trading Standards Approved’ logo brings with it the recognition of a job well done. Buy With Confidence is a signal to customers that your company is open, honest and operates within trading law. Your business will go on the Buy With Confidence website, where thousands of potential customers can find you. As a member, you will get access to Trading Standards expertise and tailored advice. This can be particularly beneficial to small businesses that may need help and advice but do not have a lot of money.

The Buy With Confidence scheme can be particularly useful for businesses trading in areas that consumers use infrequently and may not know how to choose between traders, or in an area which has a mixed reputation. It gives customers peace of mind that you are a law-abiding, responsible business that puts the customer first. Buy With Confidence ensures that its members are checked, not only financially (to assure their solvency) but their history and previous customer complaints too. So, once you are approved, you are added to the Buy With Confidence directory, available on and off line, where every customer can look for a trustworthy local company, no matter the type of expertise they require. Can you think of a better way of letting those clients find you?

Backed by more than 50 local authority Trading Standards Services nationwide, Buy With Confidence supports honest and trustworthy businesses, setting your company apart from your competitors
