3) Who will see my listings?
All users have access to the business directory! The AHRN.com members who have designated your business listing area as their area (i.e., gaining installation of Fort Bragg) will see your listings. It’s to your advantage to select all the bases in your area to have full coverage of all inbound and local DoD personnel.
4) How will they see my listings?
There is a Business Directory link on the main menu. Also, all members have listings linked from their account homepage.
5) How do I know what installations to select?
Ask yourself: who is my target audience (very local, more regional or is your business online/global)? The more bases you select for your listing, the more visibility you will have and the more referrals you receive.
6) How many people will see my advertisement?
It depends on the number of people who have your selected bases as their search area in their account.
7) What if I want to advertise to all military installations?
Contact advertise@ahrn.com for information on global listings.
8) How do I reorder my pictures?
The main photo is Image 1, which will be displayed as the default/large image. Images 2-4 will default as thumbnail images and when clicked on will enlarge. To reorder the photos, you will have to delete the photos and add them in the preferred order.
9) I have a business that isn’t local, how do I add that?
Contact advertise@ahrn.com to get help with a global listing.
10) I have friends / business colleagues, can I share the AHRN.com Business Directory with them to advertise?
Yes, copy the link to this post and paste it into whatever social media tool you use!
