How It Works

1 step 1

WE FIND THE TOP BUSINESSES IN YOUR COMMUNITY

Behind every small business is a story waiting to be shared. At Little Guide®, we seek out those stories by exploring the community and engaging with local business owners. We specifically look for local businesses that add to the culture and identity of the city.

step 2

WE TELL THEIR STORY THROUGH WORDS + IMAGERY

Once we have found a story, we can’t wait to tell it. Through words and imagery, we bring the small business’s story to life for all to enjoy. Through the eyes of Little Guide®, you will be inspired by their unique journeys and love for community.

step 3

WE DISTRIBUTE THE BOOKS FREE FOR READERS

Each year, we put those stories together in our little red book called Little Guide®. We distribute the book across town for everyone to pick up and enjoy. As an added benefit, we also publish those stories on our website and social media channels.

5-Star Review

I love your little books and have found myself taking them from other businesses to give to new residents of Augusta when they enroll their children at Westminster Schools of Augusta.

We are planning on sending out a welcome packet that has information about Augusta, and we were wondering what the cost of ~100 Little Guides would be to send to our applicants.

We host guests weekly to introduce them to the university and city beyond. Your little guides to Augusta are terrific resources for these guests!

We have LOVED having the Little Guide at Space! Our students and teachers grab them and comment on them all the time...the quality of publishing is exceptional.
