What Users Say About...

My experience with the program so far

I recently discovered localcityplaces.com and decided to give it a solid two-week trial before recommending it to others. Now, having spent some time exploring its offerings, I'm genuinely impressed. The platform is often described as a cross between Yelp and Groupon, but with a significant twist: you can earn money by reviewing local businesses! It's an excellent opportunity for anyone looking to supplement their income, whether on a part-time or full-time basis, by doing something many of us enjoy.

I encourage you to check out their introductory video and then sign up for free to start enjoying and sharing your reviews. An exciting perk is that if you're the first to register as a member in your city, you'll be designated as an Ambassador. This status grants you the privilege of listing your business for free on your page. Plus, if you're the pioneer reviewer for a company that subsequently signs up for advertising, you're entitled to a 20% commission. And the benefits extend five levels deep, offering substantial earning potential.

What I Like

I really like the idea of being part of a directory where I can share my opinions. It's fun, doesn't cost anything, and you can even make some money from it. It feels good to help local businesses by writing reviews, and it's nice to know that my thoughts can help other people find cool places around town. Plus, it's a bonus to support small businesses and see them do well because of my reviews.

What I Dislike

There are so many directories out there, making it a bit hard to get noticed. But, if Local City Places really takes off, it could go really far.

Final Verdict

I really like Local City Places. It's a chance to try something new without spending any money, just a bit of your time. With its very appealing compensation plan, it makes it a great oppunitity to consider diving into. It's fresh and exciting, and I think it's worth giving it a shot.

My experience with the program so far

This is a new program, and so far has been pretty good. They publish training videos, and host live zoom calls. There is an official Facebook group page as well as an internal social media account where you can mingle with other members. I really like that they take the time to check all reviews to ensure they are not put up in order to try and "game" the system.

What I Like

I like the fact that Local City Places is free to join for anyone. I also like the fact that you can earn income from those reviews, but you don't get paid for the reviews themselves, you get paid if the business decides to come on board as a featured business. You need to post honest reviews (good or bad), and they are all checked by a real person to ensure quality vs quantity. Think of it like Yelp or Google Reviews, but you can earn an income.

What I Dislike

The only thing I can say I dislike would be that it can take some time for a review to post, because they are all manually checked (not that this is a bad thing), so it can take a little bit of time for reviews to get posted.

Final Verdict

I would say that Local City Places is a great place to join and post honest reviews for businesses. If you post the first review, and a business decides to join as a featured business you will be paid for each and every month that business stays on board. Can you imagine having a few businesses deciding to come on board as a featured business and getting paid monthly based on that?

There is no sales, you don't have to convince anyone, or any business to come on board, all you have to do is post an honest review, good or bad, and they will take care of the rest. It's just like posting (or reading) reviews on Yelp or Google. I say why not. It really costs nothing but a few minutes, and it's free to join. It's a total win.
