What this is, and what it means for you
Your shop is on the Hub, and that listing is free. It stays free, and there's nothing you need to do.
Questions from shop owners
What is the North Shore Beef Hub?
The North Shore Beef Hub is a guide to Beef Country, the 66 towns north of Boston where more than 150 shops make Beefs. It covers five regions: Greater Boston, North Shore, Cape Ann, Seacoast, and Merrimack Valley. Your shop is part of it.
Who's behind the Hub?
Two people from Beef Country who've been eating Beefs for decades.
What does it cost?
Nothing.
Every shop gets a permanent free listing. There's no cost to be on the Hub and no cost to stay.
Down the line there will be a paid option where shops can take more control of their own information. The free listing stays, and paying won't change how a shop is listed or where it shows up.
How did my shop end up here?
We researched each shop and took the photos ourselves. Your listing is written from that research.
What if my shop isn't listed?
Tell us and we'll take a look.
Can I change something?
Tell us about a factual error, like wrong hours, a phone number, an ordering link, or a shop that's closed, and we'll fix it. The wording stays ours, because a guide people trust can't be written by the shops it covers.
What does ORDER NOW mean on my shop listing?
ORDER NOW links to your own ordering page. We don't take orders, we don't set prices, and we don't take a cut of any order. If the link is wrong or you'd rather it point somewhere else, tell us.
What if I don't want to be listed?
Just tell us and we'll take it down.
How is this different from Yelp or Google Maps?
Yelp and Google list every business. Software decides who comes up first, and customers leave a score.
The Hub covers Beef shops in five regions, and a person wrote every listing. Nobody's rating you here.
