Is your small business "on the map"? Have you tried unsuccessfully to find their business, or are you a new business? How do you get yourself on the map?
From GPSReview.net:

First, it is important to remember that just because you can’t find your business on a GPS device doesn’t necessarily mean it isn’t on the map. It just might not be on that GPS. The GPS manufacturers don’t include each and every POI due to storage space and cost limitations. You can read more about this on our Points of Interest page. But, if you want to be sure you’ve got a shot at inclusion you can report your business to the major mapping companies to make sure they have your information.

NAVTEQ: mapreporter.navteq.com
Tele Atlas: mapfeedback.teleatlas.com.

1. You will enter the address of your business
2. add a POI. (type of change you want to perform)
3. For NAVTEQ, select the ‘POI is missing’ item under ‘Point of Interest’ section.
4. For Tele Atlas, select ‘Point of Interest’ and then ‘Add Point of Interest’.

For larger businesses, check out NAVTEQ’s Direct Access program and ContentLink program from Tele Atlas.
