Yes you can, provided that the company name you add is different from the one you have listed already. In other words, you will need to create a new account for any additional businesses you want to add. This implies creating a different email address and providing a different content in the description so that (intelligent) search engines do not treat it as a duplicate (and ignore or penalize your profile).

Completing your company profile is of paramount importance for your business. A well completed eSBS page will make you not only more visible but also more credible to your visitors. This is because for a page to feature well in search engines, it must contain some meaningful, original, and well written content. Please take a moment to write a unique content as well as a detailed summary of your activities and we guarantee that you will benefit greatly from your little extra effort.

Products: you can upload up to 20 photos. Company pictures: up to 8 pictures. However please bear in mind that the pictures should be your own, and not be borrowed or taken from websites without their permission.

Posting trade leads in your "MySBS" interface is both easy and free. Once you have posted a buying request or selling offer, companies can respond to the lead, sending you an email provided they have a registered account on StoneBuy&Sell. Your trade lead will remain active for three months maximum after you add or make a change to it. After this period, just log in and re-post the lead and it will be live again for another three months.

The most active accounts on StoneBuy&Sell also happen to be the most successful ones. More often than not, they are managed by companies which have learned how to make the most out of all the features we offer. Doing business from a distance involves natural fears and suspicion. Consequently the more open you are about your company – (who you are / what you do) - the closer visitors will feel about you. It’s as simple as this. Visitors are waiting for nothing less than knowing you better. Here are a few tips to ensure that viewers of your profile convert into actual prospects:
- Polish your content. Please be informative - try to reach a percentage close to 100% profile completeness. We advise you to apply a different description for each product. You also may want to provide the brief Historic landmarks of your company, or upload your current e-catalogue or copy-paste your clients’ testimonials. If you do not have a good command of English, you might want to have your English content reviewed prior to posting. It doesn’t give potential customers much confidence if your information is difficult to understand and full of spelling errors.
- Visual branding: optimize your presence. You may upload several pictures for each added products. These will be integrated in the Slideshow on your eSBS page. Clients/visitors love to see products under various angles and see how much you care about displaying your work. You too may want to upload pictures of your premises, staff, in the dedicated "Company picture" section. This will help to bring your business to life.
-
