What I Love Sharing on Google Maps

What I love sharing most on google maps, is sharing new places or business that have recently opened where there is little information on that business or place.

Things I do when I see there is little information on a new place or business

  1. Take a few pictures of the outside and inside of the building
  2. Take note of when they are open and closed
  3. Ask what specials or daily specials they offer
  4. If a business - what makes them different
  5. Lastly, leave a review

Being a local guide has given me a sense of purpose especially being retired having a sense of purpose, or a contributing member of society can be a little difficult, knowing that my reviews and photos are making a difference and is helping other users make decisions based on my work is a great feeling to have.
