The Scout Guide (TSG) is a publication dedicated to helping you live beautifully, live well, and live like an insider, no matter where you are. With a focus on small businesses as the cornerstones of our cities, TSG connects people with local makers, experts, and each other. Through our print and online platforms, we celebrate and support small businesses, allowing readers to fully enjoy their communities.

In our annual print guides created by local editors/owners, we showcase independently owned businesses and business owners that both locals and travelers should know about in over 74 cities. Our digital platforms provide tips and inspiration on various topics, such as creating inviting guest rooms, selecting personal stationery, and having well-edited closets. We also offer travel recommendations from locals, stories about talented artists and entrepreneurs, and access to our extensive TSG Directory, where you can easily discover architects, boutiques, event planners, and more in your hometown and favorite destinations.

Launched in 2010 and now expanded nationwide, The Scout Guide is a network of small business owners, artists, artisans, and dreamers who are dedicated to supporting and celebrating each other. Our guides and directories are a valuable resource for finding excellent local businesses, a source of inspiration for various aspects of your life, and a way to connect with potential clients or partners.
