Build Your Business Presence on Rebuild Detroit
Rebuild Detroit serves different business needs through separate workflows. Begin with the path that matches the organization and goal, review the controlling policy or live product terms, and do not treat a profile, payment, inquiry, or placement as broader approval than it actually provides.

Claim and correct the business record first
If a business already appears in the directory, use the claim path rather than creating a competing identity. Match the legal name, public-facing name, contact information, business type, service area, and responsible account. Corrections should preserve the canonical profile and should not create duplicate URLs for the same business.
A claimed profile establishes account control; it does not by itself establish verification, licensing, insurance, paid placement, or eligibility for every product. Keep account access with an authorized representative and avoid sending credentials or sensitive documents through a general contact form. Follow the secure workflow presented by the actual claim process.
02
Understand verification before requesting it
The How We Vet policy is the controlling description of what Rebuild Detroit checks and what it does not check. Where a trade is licensed, the process records license status, business identity, insurance certificate information, service area, and the verification date. It does not inspect work, run background checks, or guarantee results.
Paying does not change the verification standard, and a business that fails the required checks is not listed as verified at any price. Businesses should keep their underlying public and insurance records current and respond to correction requests. Residents are still instructed to confirm current credentials before hiring.
03
Use live product terms for paid tools
Pricing, billing interval, product availability, placement, cancellation, and other purchase terms must come from the active Rebuild Detroit checkout and connected Stripe product record at the time of the transaction. A static guide, screenshot, sales message, or old invoice should never override the live product and checkout terms.
Advertising, sponsorship, leads, and profile upgrades serve different purposes. Paid placement must be labeled and does not buy a verification result or editorial endorsement. Review the actual deliverable, audience, placement period, eligibility, renewal behavior, and reporting before purchase. Contact Rebuild Detroit when a live product does not explain a required term.
04
Choose the business-type and growth path
Contractors, agents, lenders, title businesses, schools, employers, and community organizations have different records and regulatory contexts. Use the matching audience page to avoid entering information into the wrong workflow. Hiring, advertising, and partnership proposals should identify the responsible organization, service area, goal, and authoritative source for every public claim.
Rebuild Detroit can organize business information and connect users to approved routes, but it does not promise leads, sales, ranking, audience volume, hiring results, sponsorship acceptance, or return on investment. Keep claims accurate, respect suppression and communication rules, and use the current policy and product pages for decisions.
