I realized that we have a lot of great videos that get Local Guides excited about Local Guides. Google also has a lot of videos for small businesses about how they can use GMB and Google Maps.
What Google doesn't have yet is any videos that explain the Local Guides program to small businesses. Such as, "Mrs. Small Business owner, did you know that there are millions of Local Guides who want to review your business and take high-quality pictures of it? And that will help your business get a lot of visibility on the internet." So, my idea is for Google to make a video, targeted to small business owners, that explains the Local Guides program and why it's so beneficial for small businesses.
This would actually be really helpful for many of us Local Guides. Especially in the situation where a business owner says, "Why do you want to take pictures of my business?" Then we could pull out our phone, open YouTube, and show them a great video that lists out all the benefits for small business owners of being friendly and open to Local Guides.
I told a couple people about this idea at Connect Live, and they seemed to like it.
