The new Foursquare is now a more effective platform for researching and discovering great local businesses that is complete with venue pages featuring information such as location, ratings, menu items, and photos.

If you are the authorized to be the rightful manager of a listing on Foursquare, you can claim a listing as your own. As a manager, you’ll be able to make edits to your listing and keep information up-to-date to the minute. You’ll also be able to add photos, create and manage specials and ads, and view customer statistics.

• From here, click “Manage your listing” to access tools that will enable you to add photos, edit social/web links, and map location.
• If any of the listings have the label “pending”, connect them to your page as either “individual locations” or “part of a chain”.

• You have to create a Foursquare account.
• Once your personal account is activated, you will be prompted to add a business. Enter basic information about the business, such as its name, complete address, and phone number.

• If none of the results match your business, you can click “Add Your Business.” You will then choose the business type: storefront (restaurants, hotels, etc.), service area (taxi service, delivery, etc.), or brand (products, brands, causes, etc.).
• The next step is verification. Just like when you claim your Yahoo Local listing and Foursquare, you’ll have to verify to Google that you own or represent the business listing. The verification code will be mailed to you – this takes one to two weeks – and once you’ve entered the code into your account, then you’ll finally be able to start managing your local business information on Google.

• If it’s not listed on Insider Pages, then you can submit a request to add the business to [email protected], which will add the listing to multiple local directories and review websites such as MerchantCircle. Keep in mind that it takes one to two months for your listing to appear.
• If the listing already exists on Insider Pages, then  you will see a link below the star rating that reads: “claim your business.” If the prompt is not available then chances are that someone else already claimed it.

• If you can’t identify the person who claimed the listing, then contact [email protected]. They will conduct a query and help you resolve the issue. Make sure you have a business card or other verification documents that show your affiliation with the business.
• If you managed to claim the listing then you will go to a screen where you have to accept the terms and conditions to fully activate your account.
