TrueLocal: You don’t have to be a scout to earn your badges

You don’t have to be a scout to earn your badges.

Rate and review website TrueLocal.com.au has launched new badges today to reward people who review local businesses.

TrueLocal.com.au editor Myles Wearring says, “The badges appear on your avatar next to your reviews. When you see a business review from someone with a badge you can be confident the view is coming from a credible source.”

The badges are:

• Local Star – Write 20 reviews on any business and you can become a local star giving you access to all kinds of fantastic offers and discounts.
• Barfly – Sink 10 reviews about bars, nightclubs and pubs to earn your Barfly badge.
• Houseproud – Build 10 reviews about tradies and earn your Houseproud badge.
• Café Crowd – Write 10 reviews about cafes and join the Café Crowd
• Foodie - Cook up 20 restaurant reviews and you’re a Foodie!
• Pet Lover – Write five reviews about vets, groomers, dog walkers, pet shops or pet boarding to become a Pet Lover.
• Hot Bod - Share 10 reviews on gyms and personal trainers, hairdressers, beauticians or spas to earn your Hot Bod.

Myles continues, "TrueLocal.com.au is dedicated to helping businesses and customers connect. The badges are another step we’re taking to ensure people find the local business that’s right for them. TrueLocal.com.au reviews are from everyday people so you can trust their advice.”

Badges are a fantastic way to share your local knowledge. They’re easy to earn and help your favourite businesses get more customers while helping customers find some great businesses.

 Once you’ve been awarded a badge it’s prominently displayed on your profile page and on your relevant reviews.

So everyone will know you’re an expert.
