From the Horses Mouth

Straight Talk on Business, No Biting

Connecting Commerce Across New Zealand

From the Horses Mouth connects regional commerce across New Zealand through our Business Directory & Magazine, featuring trusted service providers and exclusive industry profiles.

Connecting Regional Commerce

We publish business reviews and detailed company profiles for New Zealand service providers who have earned exclusive representation in their industry and region. Our platform functions as a sophisticated Business Directory & Magazine, delivering genuine, content-rich stories about real businesses rather than static listings or outdated contact databases.

Traditional directory sites offer nothing more than a name and phone number. They fail to engage customers, influence modern search systems, or explain why a business deserves attention. People abandoned those platforms years ago because they provide no context, no credibility, and no reason to choose one provider over another.

Our publication system works differently. Each featured business receives an in-depth profile, a dedicated contact page, and multiple targeted articles about the products and services they provide. This structure strengthens visibility by giving search systems more relevant, detailed, and interlinked information about each brand. Customers who discover one of our targeted service articles encounter a business promoted intelligently across multiple content pages rather than a single static entry.

We enforce strict exclusivity. Only one business per industry sector is permitted per region. Once a listing holder claims their spot, competitors cannot enter that category until the listing expires. This model ensures every client receives complete category ownership and targeted exposure without dilution or direct competition within our platform.

Why Exclusive Representation Matters

Businesses that join our platform gain exposure across dozens of connected publications rather than appearing on a single website. This multi-platform presence amplifies brand recognition and delivers sustained visibility that free listing sites and generic directories cannot match. Each client receives professionally written content designed to inform prospective customers and strengthen their position in search results.

Our service differs from traditional advertising models. We do not sell impressions, clicks, or short-term placements. Instead, we offer permanent placement within a growing ecosystem of specialised publications. Every article, profile, and review remains live and accessible, building long-term authority rather than disappearing after a campaign ends.

The membership model operates on a first-come basis. Once a business secures their category in a region, no competitor can claim that position. This exclusivity protects your investment and ensures your brand remains the sole representative in your field within your territory. Clients receive ongoing content updates, profile enhancements, and exposure across new publications as we expand into additional regions.

Free directories list thousands of businesses in every category, creating noise rather than distinction. Our curated approach highlights one trusted service provider per sector, giving customers a clear recommendation rather than an overwhelming list. This focused model benefits both businesses seeking visibility and customers seeking reliable service providers.
