"Innovation has blazed the trail for Gold Book over the past decade," says Oakville Beaver publisher Neil Oliver. "From humble beginnings in 1998 when its first local directory rolled off the press in Halton, it has grown to be the leader in the directory industry ­ with many of North America's largest directory publishers now imitating Gold Book's products and business model." A new multimedia facet of goldbook.ca ­ its online business search directory ­ the Virtual Consumer initiative allows small business owners and operators saying thank you." In 2007 Gold Book underwent its largest growth spurt to date ­ expanding into 42 markets across southern Ontario, with directory distribution to more than 2.4 million. Each year in June 135,000 copies of the Oakville Beaver Gold Book are distributed to homes and businesses. Oliver says few remain who are not yet familiar with the "gorilla" brand. Gold Book was the first in North America to integrate phone book and website companies, offering each print advertiser a web address and website at no additional cost, and bridging print and online by including websites and online icons in its print product. As a result, goldbook.ca now hosts detailed multimedia profiles of more than 10,000 local businesses and draws more than 600,000 unique visitors each month. You can enter the Gold Book Tropical Breezes Anniversary Contest online at goldbook.ca.
