Locals Love Us is a group of people who believe that there is a lot to love in every community, but that it’s not always easy to find. Our world of constant negative news and online attacks can cause us to lose sight of what we really love about where we live. Our passion is to sift through the noise, discover what the locals love and then let everyone know about it. We call it sharing the love. We launched as The Local Best in 2004 and started expanding in 2011 as Locals Love Us. Beau Miguez moved here from
Austin and after working with the company several years, bought the franchise in February
2015. They are now in 9 markets and growing with over 200 categories offered in their secure, online survey. (Participants must register w/a phone number and are only allowed to vote once. All results are calculated in the corporate office and then sent to each franchisee. Phone numbers remain secure and are not sold.)
We’re here to deliver joy through our mission of sharing the love. We do this by caring for our culture, our people, and the communities we serve. We hire for passion and attitude, and empower people to make a difference. We look to Colossians 3:23 for inspiration, pouring our hearts into everything we do.
Now more than ever, consumers are…
- Checking reviews and surveys before making purchases
- Mentally Checking out of traditional forms of advertising, i.e. DVR, Satellite radio
