EATING FOR FREE MY FIRST TACOS THANKS TO GOOGLE MAPS
With the google maps contribution program, I lived a lot of really good experiences but I wanted to share with you, in this post, the best one I think, because it was the experience that encouraged me to continue adding content in maps.
Well, 3 years ago,when I really understood how google maps works I added lots of content in google maps knowing that there were so many places missing in my city, that’s why I went out to chase new information to complete my city’s map, by adding shops with its full description (as photos, phone numbers…ext). For that, I created and printed a special form to help new and non-added shops to be on the map as you can see in the picture just below
One day, as a local guide I went to O’Tacos a recently opened restaurant. When arrived, I gave to the boss the form then I asked him to fill it with the information needed. He asked me about what I was doing and then he was really attracted by the idea of adding his establishment in Google maps. The photos that you see here are the ones I took and added in Google maps
After finishing completing the form, the man asked me if I was payed for contributing in the app, I told him that I was doing that for passion. He really enjoyed the way I was helping people, so he offered me 3 XL tacos. The next day I invited my two friends Rayan and Amir to eat the tacos because I wanted to share it with people I love and we really enjoyed that moment it was my first time eating a taco now it’s one of my favorite foods.
Finally, I wanted to thank you, you google for the free food first
but also for all the moments i passed for exemple this one or even now while I am writing or when i did the application video for the live connect 2020, we have a fabulous community.
By the way, now in 2020 the O’tacos place cou ts more than 260 000 views!!! wich is insane for me because it one of the first places i added after my high school.
I am very happy to give visibility to local companies.
that was my answer to the question:"What’s the most interesting thing you’ve done as a Local Guide? " hope you enjoyed reading it !! thank you
