As part of GBG's efforts to support local small businesses in Dhaka, we are starting a project to get all the business on Banani Road 11 added to Google Maps. We'll send teams out on to Road 11 to visit businesses and collect their maps listing information, such as address, phone number, website & more! We'll then add all this information to Google Maps so the business can easily be found by anyone searching the map.

42. 3 Steps to MAPPING a Business!
INTRODUCE
• Knock on door/ring bell/ask the guard or introduce yourself to the reception
• State your purpose of visit and clarify why do you need the information (which
you're going to ask) from them.
INTERACT
• Write in the business info/details of the POI. (make sure the person giving the
information is NOT giving his personal details i.e. phone number, email, address
etc.
• While taking info, ask permission to take photos. Don’t forget to smile! J
INSPIRE
• Ask permission to paste the sticker on their door or any convenient place with
good visibility (AND make sure to inform them that they are now officially on
GOOGLE MAP)! Try to leave them with a happy smile and excited, so that they
feel like telling everyone about them being MAPPED!
• In case they wish to take a photo with your team, don't forget to smile at it! J
