About Us

  

ShowMe...an online media franchise

 

ShowMe presents everything there is to know about a particular place under one roof. From a commercial perspective, ShowMe offers an exciting platform for businesses large and small, local and international, to have an extremely effective presence on the internet by offering solutions ranging from online advertising right through to full E-commerce websites and network-wide national marketing.

 

 

 

The business model is built on three pillars:

  1. Unrivalled Content
  2. Traffic
  3.  Revenue

Why the ShowMe Model is the right one to choose:

  • Because it is community based, the community is involved in promoting itself.
  • Because information is provided and controlled within the community it is far more accurate than national and international directories and search engines.
  • The entire ShowMe Database is searchable.
  • Exclusive Media Partnerships ensures a wealth of exciting authorised content.
  •  ShowMe is not just a website – it is a complete and viable business model.
  •  When compared with other major franchises, the cost of a ShowMe Franchise is relatively low.
  •  The continued development of new revenue-producing ideas will be available to the entire ShowMe Network.
  • At ShowMe we are continuing to expand our network of websites by creating a ShowMe presence in all cities and towns in viable territories.  Every day, we keep working on becoming the number one choice for businesses marketing themselves on the internet and on being the only choice for consumers when they are looking for information about a place or a community – hence the slogan:  Your World in One Place

Key features of our Business Model:

  • Can be operated from an office or home office environment
  •  Quick pay back and outstanding returns on your investment
  • An automated payment system – no debtors therefore no credit risk.
  • Minimal staffing requirement (depending on size of site, 3-8 including yourself)
