TESTIMONIALS I am so glad that I continued my advertisement with Outer Banks Service Directory. My first year in the Directory, I had great response, but the next year was a little disappointing. But I renewed my ad and I am so glad I did because I got a bunch of responses this season. The ad worked great for me. The Outer Banks Service directory is my best advertising. I started with just a listing and got results, then moved up to an ad and the response increased. I even got a call from the book just the other day and that was nine months after you sent them out. Keep up the great work! –Greg White, Greg White Plumbing – Chad Tomlin, Awesome Remodeling
