BLOCK FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES
Block helps residents find trusted services around home. Businesses can serve buildings and neighborhoods without becoming fake “members” of those communities.
A BETTER LOCAL BUSINESS MODEL
Block is designed to distinguish genuine resident recommendations from paid promotion while giving useful local providers a clear commercial path.
Be approved for the buildings or neighborhoods you actually serve, instead of buying a city-wide directory listing.
Promote a useful offer or moment with clear sponsorship so paid placement never looks like an organic neighbor recommendation.
Receive attributable enquiries from residents already looking for help nearby.
As Block commerce develops, pay for verified bookings or transactions rather than impressions alone.
SERVICE AREAS, NOT FAKE MEMBERSHIP
A cleaner, piano teacher, caterer or home-care provider might serve Bukit Damansara, Bangsar and Mont Kiara. Residents still belong to buildings. Businesses belong to service areas.
Resident recommendations should remain valuable because they are transparent. If a future referral reward applies, Block should disclose it instead of disguising it as organic enthusiasm.
Example disclosure: “This neighbor may receive a reward if you book through Block.”RECOMMENDATIONS ≠ ADS
That distinction is central to Block’s commerce model: community creates discovery, transactions prove value, and businesses pay for measurable value without buying the appearance of resident trust.
CURRENT PILOT AREA
Business onboarding is intentionally curated during the neighborhood pilot. The first goal is a small set of genuinely useful providers, not a large directory.
