Well, I’m a Gmail user since 2006, but an active Local Guide since 2016 approx - I’m started when I’m put on the map a Veterinary clinic on 2017 (DogtorLeo), and since I created the company listing on Google Maps the clinic began to receive many more clients! The voice spread, and now is widely used to ask for direction that how to arribe.
I think it is very gratifying to be able to contribute to small businesses that wants to “appear on the map.” I’m always take some minutes to write a review, even before de Local Guide’s point system, and it’s so cool when you can share your user experience with a lot of people.
However I think that the most interesting thing I’ve done as a Local Guide its get a job as Designer for a company that really wants to improve his search results on GMaps. And this little hobbie like a “reviewer” opened the doors to get that job. It’s really amazing like a few minutes of my day it’s turns now on levels and an opportunity to participate on Connect Live 2020.
