Directory submissions are good, IF you're submitting to good quality directories. See:

Directory links do help with SEO but, as with anything, there are good directories and there are bad directories.

If the directory is nothing but a directory, that is, it doesn't contain any more content, then it is not a good directory. Try to get yourself included in directories that are a part of a bigger site that draw people interested in what you do.

For example, if you are a coffee shop, find the websites that have a directory of coffee shops but that are actually about something else. It might be a blog about your city that keeps a list of businesses for their readers, or a site about living green and supporting local business.
