What I Love about Local Guide: First, let me tell you about background first.
Local guide program means to me a lot to be very honest. I Still remember when I was so nervous going for my first job interview and I didn’t know about the place how to get in there and what would be the environment If I get in. Fortunately, I was offered the job. But the main thing of sharing this story is that how local guide program help me through it. When I first woke up in the morning on the day of interview. I opened the maps and started exploring the shortcut way to get to the location and then started reading the reviews that people uploaded about the company. Mostly, there were the positive reviews. The thing is those positive reviews of the people gave me confident and some of the nervousness was already gone. And fortunately, my interview went pretty well.
Central Idea of the story is when people exchange information about something that affects our behavior towards that thing. Even If we buy something, we first need the reviews that the attributes which is being offered in the product are worth it or not. According to the claims of (Mauri and Minazzi 2013) that more than 60% of the consumers consult the reviews provided by the customers before making a purchase.
Similarly, on maps local guide reviews impact the people with respect to the location.
I prefer the reviews of the particular place before visiting and make my decision according to that if the place has got bad reviews I would not visit and if it has got good reviews I would definitely visit.
