How you can help as a local guide

  • Edit new small local business to Maps.
  • Add photos/videos of that business.

How I help small local businesses in Google Maps

This shop is called KOVALAM COLLECTIONS Arts & Crafts at Kovalam, Kerala. This shop was reopened after the Covid. This shop was edited to Map by me last month or so. This shop has so many collections of fridge magnets and logos of most States of India. Shops like this can only open in seasons like low tide as itโ€™s near the beach side. After one week or so, the shop got its first review by someone. Our small contribution can help our small local businesses around us.

Fantastic idea, dear @Rahul001 :handshake:
I will venture out tomorrow and update some small businesses in my area.

I remember doing a meetup for adding small businesses to Google Maps that are operated by the differently-abled.

Here are the badges and stickers I designed for small business meetups and challenges

Saturday is a good day for shopping @Rahul001 and celebrating small businesses is really less expensive and a great help for those businesses too. I have written a post just before the transformation of Google Connect. Below is an Art shop in Malmo, Sweden.
