Vetted Vial Editorial · Published / reviewed 2026-10-23
Put your company in front of people comparing research businesses. Sponsorship buys visibility, with the relationship plainly disclosed.
Labeled placement
Eligible listings can appear in featured positions within matching directory results. Start and end dates are agreed in advance.
Independent reviews
Payment does not buy ratings, verified-review labels, company ownership approval, or removal of criticism.
Click reporting
Approved company representatives can view aggregate outbound clicks for their listing. Clicks are not unique visitors, sales, or commission confirmation.
How placement works
Owner-affiliated listings remain separately labeled and may appear ahead of sponsors. Active sponsors then follow the agreed placement priority, followed by the standard directory. Featured position is not a product-quality score.
Start with a proposal
- Create an account and request access to your company profile.
- Submit requested dates, goals, and relevant campaign details from your dashboard.
- Agree on eligibility, availability, scope, and pricing in writing.
- After approval, the platform schedules the labeled placement.
Submitting a request does not activate placement or charge you. Traffic, leads, and sales are not guaranteed. Manage your company →
Who can request placement
Start with an approved company listing and confirmed representative access. Each proposal identifies the available directory position, dates, price, and responsibilities. Profile ownership approval and paid placement are separate decisions.
When placement ends
After the scheduled end date, the paid placement and active sponsorship label expire. The company profile and published customer reviews remain. Any owner-affiliated relationship continues to be disclosed separately.
What payment cannot change
Sponsorship cannot buy a higher customer rating, a review-verification label, removal of legitimate criticism, or different moderation. Sponsored and owner-affiliated listings follow the same review rules. See our review guidelines and commercial disclosures.
