As a business owner, one of the most important steps to success is showing what makes your business special and why local customers should work with you. We are now making this easier than ever by introducing new business page upgrades that will help consumers learn more about your business, beyond the photos and reviews contributed by the community. The new products we’re announcing, Business Highlights, Portfolio, as well as the recently announced Yelp Verified License, address key pain points we heard from thousands of small business owners in the Yelp community.
