The KEEP ME CARD
Get Calls, Not Clicks.
Since 1983, Keep Me Card has operated as a dedicated emergency-only trade platform, placing one serious, verified call-out professional per category, per edition, directly into tens of thousands of local homes. This is not a directory, a leaflet, or a lead platform. It is a retained emergency reference used under pressure — when response time, trust and professionalism matter more than price.
When a fuse board fails, a pipe bursts, a roof leaks, or a lock jams, homeowners do not browse, compare or negotiate. They act. Keep Me Card positions you as the trusted first call in that moment.

Why Emergency-Only Positioning Delivers Better Work
Emergency customers behave differently:
- Urgency-led behaviour - decisions are made quickly, without online price comparison or research.
- Higher-quality enquiries - customers prioritise reliability and availability.
- Fast Call-to-Job conversion - they just want the job done.
- Greater long-term value - emergency repairs done well earn trust, repeat work, new installations and good reviews and referrals.
That first emergency visit often leads to servicing, maintenance, new installations, referrals and long-term household value.
What Is The Keep Me Card?
Established in 1983, the Keep Me Card is a premium, emergency-only local advertising platform designed for moments when homeowners must act fast.
It is not a directory, a leaflet, or a comparison site. It is a retained emergency reference kept in kitchens, drawers and noticeboards across the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. When a fuse board fails, a pipe bursts, a roof leaks or a lock jams, homeowners do not browse online — they reach for the card they trust.
Each edition appoints one verified emergency trade per category, eliminating comparison clutter and positioning that trade as the clear first call in urgent situations.
For over 40 years, the format has remained simple and deliberate: exclusive emergency trades, physically delivered into local homes, trusted before the phone rings.
Trade-Exclusive AdvertisingTrue Category Exclusivity – You Are the Only One
The problem for most quality trades is not demand — it is competition. Google, directories and lead platforms place you in lists, forcing price pressure and comparison behaviour. Keep Me Card removes that competition entirely.
For each emergency category, only one appointed trade is accepted per edition:
· Emergency Electrician
· Emergency Plumber
· 24/7 Locksmith
· Drain Clearance
· Heating Engineer
· Emergency Roofer
· Emergency Glazier
· Pest Control
· Emergency Tree Surgeon
· Fast Call-Out Appliance Repairs
When your category is filled, it closes. There are no multiple listings. You own your emergency position within that edition.
The Keep Me Card Advantage
· Emergency-only advertisers – no lifestyle or non-urgent trades.
· Strict exclusivity per category and per edition.
· Established local history since 1983.
