Tips for creating a great listing

When completing the application form to list in the Directory you’ll be asked to provide a series of descriptions about your product or service.

Short intro

This is to give users an idea of what your product or service is. There’s space for 2-3 short sentences (max. 300 characters). Note: The first sentence of your intro will appear in the page of search results, so make sure it captures the essence of what you do in 100 characters or less.

Here’s an example of a short intro for ABC Design:

Using circular economy principles we can help you redesign your products and services. Our aim is to create innovative, industry-leading solutions that have positive impacts on your business and the natural environment.

Body text for your listing

You’ll be asked to provide two longer descriptions about your product or service that will appear in your full listing: 

• A summary of your product or service (max. 300 words).
• A summary of how your product or service can help businesses to go circular (max. 300 words).
