Introduction
Creating a new listing on the Location Live platform allows you to showcase your location for brand activations. This guide will walk you through the steps to create a listing efficiently.
Steps to Create a New Listing
1. Log in to the Location Portal
Navigate to the Location Live platform and log in using your Location Provider account.
Once logged in, you will land on the Overview page.
2. Create Location
On the left-hand menu, click Listings.
This will direct you to the Locations page.
Click the green "Add location" button in the top right-hand corner of the page.
3. Complete the Location Creation Form
The creation form consists of four short steps:
Step 1: Location Details
Location Name: Enter the name of your location.
Type of Location: Select the relevant category (e.g., Shopping Centre, Green Space).
Location Description: Add a compelling description (up to 2,500 characters).
Country/Region/City: Select the Country, Region, and City from the dropdown menu to determine where your listing appears in client searches. If the desired area is not available, indicating a new territory for Lo:Live, please email landlord@locationlive.com for assistance.
Address: Input the full address, including postcode.
Currency: Select the base currency for your rate card. When your listing is live, hirers can choose their preferred currency, and Lo:Live will automatically convert prices using live exchange rates. The system requires your base currency to ensure accurate conversions.
On the map: Lo:Live will place a map pin based on the address you enter. To ensure accuracy:
Click Set location to open the map.
If needed, adjust the pin by clicking on the correct location.
Once satisfied, click the green "Save" button to confirm.
Stap 2: Images & Videos
