How to Claim Your Business Listing and Post Your Events on Patch

Anyone can post an event on Patch. And now, business owners can tell about sales and other events.

Here at Patch, we really love our community. Each Patch has a comprehensive list of local events all in one place, which makes weekend planning and weekly-activity hunting easy.

The best part about these event listings? Anyone can contribute. And now, more than ever, we’re encouraging you to hop on the Patch bandwagon and add your own event.

Does your yoga studio have weekly classes readers should know about? Put it in the calendar. Is your bar hosting an open mic night? We want to know about it. Maybe your jewelry store is having a blowout sale or a local brewery is starting up happy hour. Let the community know here on Patch.

The best way for you to post events on our site about your business is to “claim” it:

  1. Search for your business in the search bar located in the upper right corner of your Patch homepage. Once you find it, click on it to open up the listing.
  2. Right below the picture of your establishment is a box asking “Do You Own or Manage This Location?”
  3. Click “Claim It” and fill out the necessary information.

Now the community knows who you are, and posting events relative to your business, like those happy hours and sales events, is much easier.
