ADVERTISERS
“Since we started A&P in 2005, I would say that 90% of our work has come as a result of our advert in The Carshalton Beeches Directory. The feedback we get from customers is that they like the 'local feel' generated by the magazine. On a personal level, I have always found Claire and Karen to be very easy to deal with, they are both extremely helpful, professional and basically really nice people to work with. I really cannot speak highly enough of The Directory and what it has helped A&P to achieve.”
Andy Nutbeam, A+P Airports Direct
"It has genuinely made a difference to my business"
Owen Butters, Hotstuff Heating
“My new pet sitting business has been supported 100% by Claire and Karen from The Carshalton Beeches Directory so much so that Karen was my very 1st customer. Nothing is ever too much bother - I have changed my advert probably more than anyone else who advertises with them and I am always met with a very cheerful, helpful response. My business is purely based on trust and local recommendation and has come on in leaps and bounds thanks to The Directory and this is due to the fact that it is
created for local people, by local people, advertising local business.”
Karen Nutbeam, Proprietor of Kreature Komforts
''I am grateful to The Beeches Directory, now I have a large client base that is regular work for me - I’m over the moon. I was especially pleased about the help I received over the phone, Claire was a great help''.
Roberto Digregorio, Rob Motiv8

Colin Coombs, Chelsea Construction
“Advertising in The Directory has been by far the most successful advertising we have done for the salon. We get more customers from this publication than any other, and the rates are excellent value. I recommend The Directory to friends and business associates whenever possible.”
Natalie Venes, Seven Hairdressing

It's great to have such an informative local magazine which people are genuinely interested in reading"

Mark Cox, Modern Décor
“Compact, easy, inoffensive, yet stylish and very much to the point, just the way I like it. Great advertising, produces great results.”
Peter Green, Petal Engine
“Excellent publication for an individual and specialist company like ours to reach the local catchment area”
Denise Tarling, David Tinsley Fine Jewellery Design
“My company has advertised in The Beeches Directory from the very start and we are very pleased with the response our advert has generated. The 'local' feel of the directory is very helpful as our customers like dealing with local tradesmen who have a permanent base in the area and aren't just an anonymous mobile number.”
Gareth Bird, Tiler and Bird Property Maintenance
“The advert made a real difference to attracting business to the shop and encouraging locals to support their local shop. The staff at Carshalton Beeches Directory were really helpful in advising on layout and text and made the most of photographs and images. I would highly recommend The Directory to any local business.”
Nevzat Oktay, Proprietor of Hands on Hardware.
READERS
“I use mine more than The Yellow Pages”

Mrs B, Southway

Mrs W, East Drive
“I refer to The Directory at least twice a month to get details of local businesses.”
Mrs T, Downside Road
“From the first issue I thought it was a winner”
