Offer Visitors a Custom Tour
All Content in One Place
Isn’t this just a map?
Not JUST a map. We show everything in one single view.
This includes shops, eateries and points of interest, while also providing a very fast bird’s-eye-view.
Google, or Bing, or Apple Maps never show all the places. They are road experts that provide us with free GPS. In exchange for our usage, they charge businesses for exclusive location visibility.

Yes, Our Guides Work
It has been my privilege to rely on the HandyGuide product for the past 12 years. Starting in 2008, as president of the Westwood Chamber of Commerce, we co-developed a town-wide map which proved invaluable in way-finding, directing business from one merchant to the next, and keeping our client’s shopping, dining, and using the services within our community.
The most recent all-inclusive publication was published one year ago and included businesses that had just signed leases. By anticipating their openings by more than a year we kept the guide very relevant. At our last membership meeting, a new business and property owner joined us for the rest time and held up the Guide and said, ‘this is why I am here.’
As an aside, when the local historical committee was researching businesses from the past 25 years based on address, the past years' hard copy HandyGuides became an invaluable resource in this fleeting digital age. I would highly recommend HandyGuide for showcasing your town’s offerings.

Common Questions
Do you offer any guarantees?
Yes. We always do our best to provide accurate and proofed data; however, if an error is found in the final print product then the correction is made on the digital version. Rest assured, we’ve never had to reprint because of our proofing system because we print a small quantity of hard copies for client review, input and approval.
