Moving to a new area is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. That’s where we come in.

We are Michele and Trent Soles, and we have been the directors of BeLocal Southwest Columbus since 2019. BeLocal was created to help new residents quickly discover the best places to go, the best things to do, and the most trusted local businesses throughout the Southwest Columbus communities.

We thoughtfully connect newcomers with businesses that genuinely care about serving the people who live here. Through our printed guide, online presence, and social media channels, we work with a select group of local businesses to help them become trusted, locally preferred resources for years to come.

Let’s work together to serve our community well.
