List your business on LocalPacificBeach

Send us your photos and one short video. We combine them into a finished video and post it to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook — plus your listing in the directory.

What we do with your files

We build the video for you

We take all 4 of your photos and your video clip and edit them together into one finished promo video. That video gets posted to our YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook channels and lives on your directory listing. You don't edit anything — you just send good source files.

One submission, four platforms

How it works

  1. 1

    Check which plan you're in

    Storefront businesses customers can walk into are free. Service businesses that work at the customer's home or location pay $100 for 6 months.

  2. 2

    Take your photos to the guidelines

    Follow the exact shot list below. Submissions that skip a required shot are rejected — no exceptions.

  3. 3

    Upload everything in one submission

    Your photos upload straight to us and your 10-second clip comes in as a Google Drive folder link, shared so anyone with the link can view.

  4. 4

    We review and publish

    We check the files, produce your video and publish your listing. You hear back by email either way.

Exact shot list

Photo & video requirements

Photo 1

Storefront with your sign

Shot straight on from the sidewalk in daylight. Your business name must be readable. No cars or people blocking the sign.

Photo 2

Inside, where customers stand

The counter, waiting area or main room from the customer's point of view. Lights on, blinds open, no clutter in the frame.

Photo 3

Your product, dish or service

One clean close-up of what you actually sell — a plate, a haircut, a finished job. Fill the frame, natural light where possible.

Photo 4

One more product, team or detail shot

A second product, your team, or a detail that shows character. No screenshots, no logos on white, no stock photos.

The video clip

  • 10 seconds maximum per clip. Anything longer gets rejected.
  • Shot vertically on a phone, held steady — no zooming, no filters, no music.
  • Put the clip(s) in one Google Drive folder set to “Anyone with the link → Viewer” with download allowed. No passwords, no per-email access.
  • Test the link in a private browser window before you send it.

Submissions that skip a required shot, run past 10 seconds per clip, or use a locked Drive link get rejected with an email explaining what to fix.
