Brilliant Directories Setup & Configuration for a wholesale directory

The Brilliant Directories framework is already installed on my server; it now needs a full, production-ready configuration so the site functions as a business directory that showcases company listings and collects enquiries through lead forms.

I need someone who works with Brilliant Directories on a regular basis and understands its built-in tools—content widgets, dynamic lead forms, member features, SEO settings, and payment/configuration options—so the job is completed quickly without trial and error. Your task is to:

• Structure categories and sub-levels that make sense for the niche,
• Configure the listing pages so each business profile looks professional and pulls in the right data fields,
• Set up the lead form workflow (auto-emails, notifications, CRM pipeline inside BD),
• Optimise the homepage and search/index pages for speed and on-page SEO, and
• Test everything before hand-off, ensuring visitors can browse listings smoothly and send enquiries without glitches.

Please plan the work so it’s handed back as a turn-key directory: all settings documented, demo listings in place to prove functionality, and clear instructions for day-to-day management. If you’ve launched other BD sites, let me know; that experience will be the deciding factor.
