FAQ
How is SubmitToDirectories different from a spreadsheet agency?
Spreadsheet agencies often rely on a static list and ad-hoc email updates. We curate directories by fit, authority, and intent, capture requirements per listing, and send status reports with next actions plus listing URLs.
Do I need a quote before I can start?
No. You pay online for Starter, Growth, or Scale. Spreadsheet agencies usually quote or invoice first, which slows kickoff when you already know the package size you need.
How do I start?
Buy Starter, Growth, or Scale on the pricing page. After payment we email the asset checklist and begin submissions.
