GaGa For Google Local Guides...

Are you a Google Local Guide? If not, you might want to consider becoming one. Being a Local Guide has numerous benefits, not just for you, but also for the community around you. Recently, I received an email stating that I'm in the top 10% of contributors in the Riverside-San Bernardino area, and I couldn't be more thrilled. It's not just about the recognition though, being a Local Guide has been a fun and rewarding experience!
One of the best parts about being a Local Guide is knowing that my contributions are helping local businesses. Last year alone, my photos and reviews helped 278 locations, mostly small and local businesses. By posting pictures and writing reviews, I am helping these businesses gain more visibility and exposure on Google Maps, which can ultimately help them attract more customers. In fact, pictures that I have uploaded on Google Maps Reviews have been viewed over 100 million times, and I'm proud of that number.
But the benefits don't stop there. As a vendor in the automotive space, I have found that being a Local Guide has given me added value. By sharing pictures of car dealerships, for example, I have helped increase their visibility and reach on Google Maps. Some of the dealer pics I have shared have even reached 3 to 5 million views!
If you're a Google Local Guide, let's connect! It's always great to meet and network with other Local Guides. And if you're not yet a Local Guide, I highly recommend it. It's a fun and rewarding experience that can help you connect with your community and make a positive impact on local businesses.
