A major difference of ToonPages is that we believe in supporting local charities and hence our business model is totally different from most directories such as Yell and Thomson. A portion of the money you pay which will be 20% will be donated to The Starlight Children’s Foundation who have promised to grant wishes to local terminally ill children.

Hence our tag lines of ‘Ads with a conscience‘ and ‘Local Businesses helping local children’.

Our sponsored Purple Heart package will encourage potential customers to use the more ethical advertisers hence more profits. We will aim to work with forward thinking business owners who have a social conscience and believe they can change the world starting with a small step here in the North-East.

We don’t need negative people who will drag down the ideas by stating things such as ‘Why should I pay , when I can get it FREE?’ . Questions and people like this totally miss the point of what we are trying to achieve here.

Please note you can advertise FREE on http://toonpages.co.uk/ , we want a community of like-minded people and businesses working and striving together to help each other.

You can sign up online and create your very own tailor made advert or request a FREE call-back and we’ll send someone out to help you with your Advertisement.

ToonPages isn’t only internet based, we also advertise in Local printed media, plus operate regular Mail Drop Campaigns in the North-East

We are also starting Business Networking lunches, check out http://www.toonpages.co.uk/event/inaugural-toonpages-business-networking-event.html

Visitors keep coming back to our Chill Out section to read Local News, Free Ads,Local Events, What’s on at the Cinemas, Theatre, etc… They will also visit ToonPages to use the Social networking facilities to talk to other users in the forums or even to check out the weather forecast. Our Games sections will keep kids amused and help draw further visitors. There is no charge for this service.
