What I love to share in Google Maps

Hello everyone. With this post, I’m very happy to write what I love to share in Google Maps. This is my first time writing here at Local Guides Connect but I hope to continue sharing in the days to come. I got to know about Local Guides Connect via the application procedure for Connect Live 2019, and I’m very happy to have found this platform.

I am a marketer by profession working in the beverages industry. I am thus responsible to travel and visit many existing and probable clients, and businesses in Kathmandu and throughout eastern Nepal. While in my business tours, I make maximum use of Google Maps to locate potential restaurants and eateries to start a business with.

Keeping this in mind, I make an effort to help promote the new and small businesses that are not yet listed in Google Maps by adding in their details and photographs. And while doing so, I make sure that I inform the business owners. This adds in a gesture of politeness and positivity in my business dealings.

Take for instance the following images of James World Fun Park that I had shared in Google Maps while it was in it’s final phase of construction. I demonstrated to the owner how adding the images and business details in Google Maps can be a great way to market his new park, and he was very happy to have learned about it. And if you’re wondering about the deal, it did go through well and we are the exclusive soft drink being poured in the eateries inside of James World Fun Park Today.

Besides eateries, I also make sure that I share images and reviews of hotels that I stay in during my business trips. I do this with a motive to help other business travelers like myself to find comfortable and budget friendly hotels to stay in.

To summarize, I am very grateful to the info that is available in Google Maps. It makes me so much efficient when working, and I put in my efforts to help others too by sharing more related info.

@SunnyShrestha I too like the updates from Google. Because we get the number of views for each and everything. Traveling is a part of my work and a hobby too. Sharing the details of places visited is the best thing to do post the trip. You can revisit your memories each time you write about it.

All the best for more posts!
