Google Local Guides Connect Live 2019 Party 2

It was an unforgettable moment 🤩 for me when I first received the official Connect live invitation email from Google because I have never thought of selected by Google among more than 120 million local guides all over the world 🌎.

Everything was perfect in San Jose, California 🇺🇸 . I met with precious local guides from many countries, and Google well organized everything.

I was very grateful to Google and decided to organize many meetings for the Local Guides program and increase the awareness ️ of local guides in Istanbul.

As the first step, I organized a meet up with the attendance of 45 local guides 🧑🏻‍‍🧑🏽 from various cities of Turkey 🇹🇷, such as Istanbul, Bursa, and Kocaeli. Of course, my first goal was to get to know other local guides and create a robust community.

We gathered in ING Innovation Center that is mainly used for gatherings around innovative communities. I tried to cover the following issues in my presentation:
 
– What is the Local Guides Program?
– How to create quality content for Google Maps? ️
– What are the advantages of claiming a business on Google Maps?
– My notes from the Connect Live 2019 event, which was organized in San Jose, California.
 
In conclusion, I am pretty happy to organize such a big event for the first time in Istanbul, with 45 local guides from different provinces of Turkey 🥰
