This November we are running a Trusted Saskatoon Facebook contest event to celebrate reaching 7000 Trusted Saskatoon Facebook fans - we have already sent Sara, a Trusted Saskatoon fan & her guest to the recent Kevin Hart show in Saskatoon. It was a fantastic show, and we know she had a super time!!! 

On Monday we launched the 2nd like, share and comment contest for fans of our page , and it was seen by over 34,500 people in and around Saskatoon!

Now we are thrilled to announce our 2nd winner - this lucky fan has won VIP Tickets to the Sold out Steep Panther show in Saskatoon Nov 20th.

We select winners via software - so it is absolutely fair , and we have the video below of the selection!!

The winner has been a long time Trusted saskatoon fan too!! They know for sure that it ALWAYS pays to be a fan of Trusted Saskatoon!

Our next contest and prize will be announced on Monday, please be sure to like the Trusted Saskatoon Facebook page and follow the instructions, as many people didn't qualify to win as they either weren't fans of the page or hadn't liked , commented and shared on the post ! 

Why Trusted Saskatoon? It seems that everyone these days in the City of Bridges is so busy with life, family, work and a million other commitments. When a need arises for a product or service and you can’t think who to contact where do you turn? Perhaps the business you select randomly yourself or find in other ways lets you down and does a bad job....living in a rapidly growing City like Saskatoon can present it's challenges ....with new businesses springing up all the time and existing businesses getting busier standards can suffer. Trusted is here to save you time, save you hassle, save you money and do the research for you...all the business on this site are contracted to uphold the 5 TRUSTED GUARANTEES.  Trusted is a local and International award winning company run by a local Saskatchewan team who CARE about the community we serve! 

Hear from the Trusted Founder Sara Wheelwright along with a user of TrustedSaskatoon.com Janice Braden  in this video below.

The Trusted team is SUPER excited to announce that the  Trusted Saskatchewan community rebuild of Janice Braden's house has been completed. Janice and her young daughter have a HOME again ...and a beautiful one at that!

We will be sharing pictures of the finished project soon, but first, we had to have a party to celebrate!

On August 13th, 2015 the Trusted team gathered Janice and as many of the Trusted partners who contributed to the project as possible to Village Guitar and Amp and celebrated this completion of this huge project. Nicola from PickNics Catering ( a Trusted Saskatoon caterer ) provided delicious food and the drinks flowed as we all laughed and chatted about the project. Friendships have been made on this project between the partners across Saskatchewan, and Janice Braden was kind enough to allow us to video her giving testimonials to all the Trusted partners and others that stepped up to help her in her moment of need!

The Trusted Saskatoon directory and the Trusted marketing Services team are thrilled to be doing what we do. We really believe the Trusted community is making a difference in Saskatoon and area. Trusted is still a fairly new Saskatchewan business, some have still not heard about us, others have heard of Trustedsaskatoon.com but don't know what we do differently to other places you can source local companies. Perhaps the more cynical among us don't think we are the 'real deal' ?

One of the fundamentals of Trusted is we are an unbiased 3rd party that promotes and endorses these ' Trusted'  locally accountable businesses. Unlike the others we actually do our due diligence on the companies before they sign a contract with us to become Trusted. The verification process includes talking to their customers, and we also randomly mystery shop the partners throughout the year!  

One of the favorite moments on our work life at Trusted is when we get feedback from the users of Trusted, and this last few weeks we have received some awesome emails that we wanted to share with you! 

The first is from Claire a newcomer to Saskatoon from Alberta who messaged us via Trustedsaskatoon.com contact us page.

Thanks Claire we appreciate you taking the time to write to us and WELCOME to the best place in the World :)  

The second is from some one we know really well, as they are a long standing Trusted Partners themselves - Tammy Richmond from GPS Financial - TrustedSaskatoon Financial Planning professionals 

"I have been meaning to write you for a month and give you feedback about my Trusted experience from a consumer perspective: As a Trusted partner I, of course, go to Trusted first when I am looking for a service or business to meet my needs. In May I moved so the first place I looked for my movers was on Trusted Saskatoon. Two companies came up and I immediately contacted both for quotes along with other companies that were not on Trusted. The two companies on Trusted were the only ones that responded to my request for a quote. They were very similar in what they offered and price so I selected one and my experience was great. The owner of the company was calling the guys during our move to check in and see how things were going, they were on time, the cost was what was quoted and there was not one nick in any walls. I was very satisfied with my experience.

Once we had possession of our house it was clear we needed the carpets cleaned badly. So again I went to Trusted and found Hal at the Carpet Guys. This is the second time I have reached out to Hal through Trusted. He is great. He fit me in, he is fast, and he does a fantastic job. I have recommended him to others several times.

As a Trusted partner it was great to experience it from the other side. I know the process a business goes through to be a Trusted partner, I know the work Sara and her team do to make sure each company can be “Trusted” and that makes the decision of who to call so much easier. If a company is on Trusted I don’t feel the need to ask friends for recommendations or try to find out about other people’s experiences, that work has been done for me. If you are a Trusted partner why wouldn’t you reach out to the other partners for their services and products first? It just makes sense! Thanks Sara & the Trusted team, Tammy.

We shared in May that June 1st was our 4th birthday ( read the article here). we are the number 1 most visited online directory by the people of Saskatoon and we are absolutely thrilled to work with many of the best businesses in this fair city!  Of course if we didn't have the support of our amazing fans we wouldn't be where we are today, so we wanted to thank YOU by having a heck of a contest to celebrate!
