Just a quick point. It is up to the purchaser of services to vet the services for their needs.
One size does not fit all, especially in this open source community.
Disparaging 1-person business would lose great resources as well as steady income for talented people.

Seems like there should be some basic standards for being listed, for example: you are a registered business, you have more than one employee (ie. you haven't just created a name for your one-person consultancy, there could be a separate listing for independent consultants), you have a working website and up-to-date contact information, you follow PostgreSQL community standards/OSS policies, etc.
