About Collective Guide

Hello and welcome! We're so glad you're here and hope you find the information on this website helpful. That's why it exists.

Members of Collective Guide believe they have something to offer.

We all talk about supporting local businesses and we can! We can choose to purchase products and services from our neighbors, and this directory on Collective is a great place to find them.

Our Mission

Collective.guide is an inclusive directory on mission to help people find and connect with others in their communities, through listings, resources and events.

Our Vision

An intentional, collaborative marketing hub designed to be a complete resource that is helpful, user friendly and consumer driven.

Our Values

We are committed to transparency, authenticity, and inclusivity, so every organization, regardless of size or background has an equal opportunity to be found and serve others in their community.

From the Founder.

This website is not about me. It's about real, local people doing great things in their communities and beyond. We are here to serve and support local businesses in a real and tangible way. Our goal is to provide a platform, where everyone is equal, where the results of your search aren't determined by ad spend, and where community is not simply your zip code.

We're doing something different.

The model is different, and so is the intent. Our website is built with the user in mind, so it's easy to find and connect with those who have the products or services they need. We're not trying to get rich quick, collect subscription fees or charge for clicks.

All of this matters. It's getting hard to know what's real and what's true online. Together we can be a resource that strengthens local connection, builds trust, and promotes individual businesses and organizations.
