The Value Of Trusted Saskatoon's Third Party Validation For Reputable Local Brands & Businesses

In the 21st century, marketing avenues are virtually limitless. From newer methods like email, social media, and SEO to traditional media such as radio and billboards, local businesses today have more tools than ever to connect with their audiences. As AI and digital technology evolve, these strategies will continue to grow more sophisticated, allowing businesses to engage with consumers in increasingly personalized and innovative ways. However, one form of marketing remains as vital today as it has been for centuries: word-of-mouth, also known as Third-Party Endorsements, Influencer Marketing or Third-Party Validation.

  




“Third-party endorsement refers to a solicited or unsolicited recommendation from an individual or entity who is neither the manufacturer nor seller of the product or service.” 


4 Reasons Why Third-Party Endorsements Are Crucial for Your Brand:


1. Establishing Trust

In today's era of information overload, gaining consumer trust is more challenging than ever. Third-party endorsements cut through the promotional noise by providing external credibility. When consumers see endorsements from trusted sources—whether industry experts, influencers, or reputable organizations—they are more likely to trust the brand.


2. Increasing Brand Authority

With brands constantly vying for consumer attention, third-party endorsements elevate your visibility and solidify your authority within the industry. Being featured on credible platforms boosts your brand's recognition and helps position your business as an industry leader.


"When an unaffiliated third-party expert speaks positively about your brand, it instantly boosts credibility—removing the self-promotional bias." – Entrepreneur Magazine 


3. Building Brand Loyalty

Consumers today crave authentic connections with the brands they support. When they see endorsements from trusted influencers or well-regarded sources, they feel a sense of connection and reinforce their loyalty over time.


4. Creating Social Proof

Third-party endorsements act as social proof, offering reassurance that consumers are making informed choices. Whether through customer testimonials, influencer partnerships, or media mentions, these endorsements help reduce skepticism and increase consumer confidence.


"Third-party validation offers 'social proof,' demonstrating that we are experts in what we claim. In today’s market, continuously building and reinforcing credibility is vital for every business owner and professional."- Forbes

Our product IS our Partners, and we spend all our time and effort promoting them as the best option in Sakatoon in their categories. We craft tailored third-party content designed to endorse your brand in the most impactful way possible. 


We believe IN our Partners, not because they pay ( as it is a minimal investment compared to other consistent paid advertising options ), but because our team genuinely believes in and trusts them.

Trusted Saskatoon Appliance Experts At Midtown Appliance World Provide Helpful Tips To Extend Your Refrigerators Life!

Midtown Appliance World and Saskatoon Appliance carry top North American brands like Bosch, Frigidaire, GE, JennAir, KitchenAid, Maytag, and Whirlpool. In their first Trusted Saskatoon appliance tip, they explain how the heat can negatively impact your refrigerator.  Midtown Appliance and Saskatoon Appliance Are Your Trusted Saskatoon Appliance Stores




Protect Your Refrigerator from Overworking In The Summer Season


Perhaps the refrigerator is not the first appliance you think of when it comes to curbing your energy use, but you must reassess how you use it — especially during the summer months.

If your appliance is over 15 years old, you might want to consider shopping for a new refrigerator, as Energy Star® certified models have become more widely available. While the initial cost for a newer unit may be high, you will save more money in the long run regarding energy use. Here are other ways you can protect your refrigerator from overworking.

1. Close that door!

Regarding refrigerators, the easiest and most obvious way to ensure yours will use less energy is to avoid standing in front of an open appliance for a prolonged period. When you open the fridge or freezer door, cold air escapes, and the longer you dawdle, the more energy will be required to restore the interior temperature to the intended setting. Making decisions before cracking open your fridge or freezer allows you to limit the number of times you open these compartments daily.

2. Avoid heat

When your refrigerator is near heat sources, the compressor kicks things into high gear to keep your foods chilled. Not only does this force your refrigerator to work harder, but it also results in a needless waste of energy. To prevent it from working in overdrive, it is wise to keep your refrigerator away from direct sunlight. For the same reasons, when designing your kitchen, install your refrigerator away from your cook station and any appliances that may emit high heat. We recommend allowing your leftovers to cool before putting them in the fridge. The idea behind this is that you would reduce the amount of heat added to the fresh-food compartment. While this solution seems to leave a small impact, you won’t think so after seeing your next bill.

3. Check the seal

Also called a “gasket,” the rubber seal around the frame of the fridge door prevents warm air from coming through the fresh food and freezer compartments. As this critical component starts breaking down, your unit will be working even harder to keep your foods chilled or frozen, which ultimately means higher energy bills — not to mention a shorter refrigerator lifespan.

It is common for the gaskets to lose some of their suction as the compartments are frequently accessed over time. Be sure to replace your refrigerator gaskets if they are torn or weakened.

4. Make a habit of cleaning up often

When your items are easy to find in your fridge, you can spend less time with the door open, ultimately reducing the amount of energy you use. As you’re re-organizing and throwing things out, you should also consider having fewer items on the top shelf of your refrigerator, especially large items like pizza boxes, loaves of bread, and serving dishes. Since this is a highly accessible spot, we recommend reserving the top shelf for foods and ingredients you reach for the most often — the easier they are to grab, the quicker the door can be closed. In addition, larger objects stored at the top may trap heat inside your unit, forcing your compressor to work harder.

5. Manually set the internal temperature

For your unit to provide the greatest efficiency for your family, set your refrigerator temperature to between 2°C-3°C and the freezer to between -17°C to -15°C. Setting the dial to the midpoint temperature usually does the trick if your fridge does not display the exact temperature.

6. Reduce frost buildup

Depending on your refrigerator, you may need to defrost it manually. Ice buildup can accumulate on the coils inside your refrigerator, forcing your unit to work overtime. If you do not regularly defrost your refrigerator and freezer, it may be difficult for the appliance to maintain cooler temperatures. That said, automatic defrost comes standard in modern refrigerators.

7. Spend a little to save a lot

Since it comes down to limiting the number of times you open your appliance to preserve the interior temperature, we recommend shelling out on a refrigerator with a glass panel — checking if you’re running out of milk is easier than ever, as you can make your shopping list without opening the doors!

Alternatively, you might consider a smart refrigerator with interior cameras to view the contents from your smartphone while at the grocery store.

Trusted Saskatoon Realtor Marla Janzen Answers The Question: What If My Offer Is Rejected?

As an award-winning SASKATOON REAL Estate agent, Marla Janzen knows the city and surrounding area extremely well. She strives to find her clients the perfect new place to live while negotiating the best terms and price possible. She has a keen eye for house layout and home staging, which really benefits her clients, most of whom are past client referrals! In her latest Saskatoon real estate tip, Marla answers a frequently asked question: what if my offer is rejected? 


Real Estate FAQ - What If My Offer Is Rejected?

Sellers can flat-out accept or reject an initial offer, but there is a third path that is quite common - sellers can initiate a counteroffer.

Remember this: a deal isn’t dead until it’s dead. So, if a counteroffer is offered by the seller, you’re still in the game. You and your agent just need to review it and determine whether it’s acceptable. If so, then approving it closes the deal immediately.

Keep in mind, offers and counteroffers can go back-and-forth many times; this is not unusual and negotiations are a part of what realtors do as a matter of routine. Each revision should bring both parties closer together on the terms of the deal.

These are the types of tips that Marla can provide to a home buyer as a realtor! Get in contact with her if you’d like to learn more.
