Yri­tys­palve­lut Suo­mi: a free mar­ket­ing plat­form for B2B com­pa­nies in the Oulu region

Yri­tys­palve­lut Suo­mi is a new kind of plat­form that con­nects com­pa­nies that need ser­vices and com­pa­nies that offer those ser­vices in the same place. The free plat­form is designed espe­cial­ly for B2B com­pa­nies that are in search of an effi­cient way to find the ser­vices they need and, at the same time, mar­ket their own ser­vices to poten­tial cus­tomers.

B2B com­pa­nies in the Oulu area will be the first in Fin­land to use the Yri­tys­palve­lut Suo­mi plat­form. Lat­er on, the ser­vice will expand to oth­er areas.

The ser­vice includes:

• Free mar­ket­ing chan­nel: the plat­form is cost-effec­tive, espe­cial­ly for small and medi­um-sized com­pa­nies. It also offers ana­lyt­ics to mon­i­tor the demand for ser­vices.
• Search func­tion for ser­vices: com­pa­nies will be eas­i­ly able to search for and com­pare the ser­vices they need. The com­par­i­son, favourites, and review func­tions make find­ing and choos­ing the ser­vices sim­ple.
• Com­mu­ni­ca­tion and eval­u­a­tion: the plat­form enables direct com­mu­ni­ca­tion between com­pa­nies, and reviews of ser­vices, increas­ing trust and help­ing in informed deci­sion-mak­ing.
• Exten­sive lan­guage sup­port: the ser­vice sup­ports Finnish, Swedish, and Eng­lish, which expands the com­pa­nies’ abil­i­ties to reach cus­tomers and part­ners who speak dif­fer­ent lan­guages.

Reg­is­ter­ing on the plat­form is sim­ple: the com­pa­ny rep­re­sen­ta­tive must pro­vide an email address, cre­ate a pass­word and con­firm the user­name. After this, the company’s infor­ma­tion and ser­vices can be added in a guid­ed man­ner. The com­pa­ny pro­file is pub­lished on the plat­form when the com­pa­ny infor­ma­tion has been saved and the admin­is­tra­tor of the Oulu region has approved it. You can read more about the process on the platform’s web­site (Finnish, Swedish, and Eng­lish) and on BusinessOulu’s web­site (in Finnish).

Yri­tys­palve­lut Suo­mi sup­ports the growth of B2B com­pa­nies and makes find­ing and com­par­ing ser­vices more effi­cient. The plat­form is designed to make every­day life eas­i­er and for com­pa­nies to bring added val­ue to both ser­vice providers and searchers.
