Your number goes on a physical card delivered into homes across your area. Customers call you directly. No comparison sites. No middleman. One trade per category, per area.

  • One exclusive trade slot per category, per area
  • Better customers than directories, bought leads and broad Google Ads

  • Trust is established before the call is made

Why Emergency Trades Are Ditching Directories, Shared Leads and Expensive PPC

Most trades are being pushed into the same broken model: pay for visibility, pay again for clicks, pay again for leads, then compete against multiple other firms for the same customer. That is expensive, frustrating and often low quality.

Keep Me Card is different. We do not sell the same enquiry to multiple advertisers. We do not bury you under competitors. We do not ask homeowners to browse endlessly when they are under pressure. We focus on urgency, trust and being remembered.

  • Checkatrade and directories: multiple competitors side by side
  • Google Ads: rising costs, wasted clicks, mixed intent
  • Search results: customers compare and delay
  • Keep Me Card: one trusted local option in their hand, ready before the emergency
How It Compares
Directories
Multiple Competitors Side by Side
Homeowners browse and compare. You compete on price and reviews against several similar trades.
VS
Keep Me Card
Exclusive — Only You
One trade per category. Your number on the card. No competition in sight.
· · ·
Bought Leads
Same Lead, Multiple Buyers
The enquiry you paid for was also sent to 3–5 other trades. You compete on speed.
VS
Keep Me Card
Direct Call — Just You
When the homeowner calls the number on the card, they call only you. No middleman.
· · ·
Google Ads / PPC
Rising Costs, Mixed Intent
Pay per click whether they need you or not. Costs rise. Competitors bid against you.
VS
Keep Me Card
High-Intent Emergency Calls
People call because they genuinely need urgent help. Direct, purposeful, no comparison.

In an Emergency, Customers Do Not Shop Around. They Act.

When water is coming through the ceiling, the boiler has stopped, the fuse board has tripped or the lock has failed, customers do not behave like they do for a planned home improvement project. They want speed, reassurance and a trade they feel they can trust.

That is why Keep Me Card works. The card is already in the home. Your business is already visible. The homeowner does not need to search, compare or second-guess. They call.

Urgent Jobs Are Won by Trust and Availability

When a homeowner is under pressure, they reach for what they already know and trust. Keep Me Card builds that familiarity before the emergency even happens.

Familiarity Beats Endless Choice

In a crisis, too much choice is stressful. Your name on the card removes the decision entirely — the customer already has the answer before the stress begins.

Pre-Positioning Beats Being Found Late

By the time a homeowner searches Google in a panic, the best jobs often go to the trade already visible. Keep Me Card gets you there first, before the emergency strikes.

Emergency Customers Often Become Regulars

A well-handled emergency call frequently leads to repeat work — annual services, future repairs and referrals to friends and neighbours in the same postcode.

A Simple Route From Application to Better Local Jobs

The aim is simple: less wasted spend, fewer low-quality leads and a stronger stream of relevant local work. Here is how the process works.

1

Apply Online

Tell us your trade, your target area and your service coverage. The application takes a few minutes to complete.

2

We Review Your Business

We check your credentials, insurance, reviews and overall fit for the area. We only take advertisers we would trust ourselves.

3

Your Area Is Secured

If approved, your trade category is locked for that area. No like-for-like competitor will be placed in the same position.

4

Cards Are Delivered Into Homes

Your details go on the card and the cards are delivered into local homes — on fridges, in drawers and near the phone.

5

Your Phone Rings

When emergencies happen, people use the card and call you directly. Less wasted spend, fewer low-quality leads, more relevant local work.

What advertisers say about the model

“The aim is simple — less wasted spend and a stronger stream of relevant local work. That is exactly what we get.”

Better Value for Plumbers, Electricians and Local Emergency Trades

If you are paying for clicks, paying for shared leads or competing against several similar firms in the same listing, you are not buying certainty — you are buying competition.

01

Exclusive Trade Position

Your value is not in being one of many. It is in being the trade that is already trusted, already visible and already remembered when the customer needs help.

02

Direct Local Awareness

Cards are delivered into homes that match your target area. Your name is in the right places before the emergency even happens.

03

Better Call-Out Intent

Every call comes from a homeowner with a genuine, urgent need. Not a browsing session, not a curious click — a real job that needs doing today.

04

Ongoing Visibility

Unlike one-off clicks or ads that stop the moment you stop paying, Keep Me Card gives you ongoing presence in the home, month after month.

05

Potential Repeat Work

Emergency customers often become repeat customers — annual services, future repairs and referrals to friends and neighbours in the same postcode.

06

Trust Before First Call

The homeowner already knows you are checked and trusted before they even pick up the phone. That changes the conversation entirely.

We Do Not Just Take Ads. We Vet the Businesses We Put Forward.

Keep Me Card is only as strong as the businesses on it. That is why we vet the trades we accept. The goal is simple: when a homeowner sees a business on the card, the card itself should carry trust.

This is not about filling space. It is about building a trusted local emergency resource people actually keep and use.

  • Relevant insurance reviewed and confirmed
  • Trade accreditations checked where applicable (Gas Safe, NICEIC, MLA)
