Which business makes your neighborhood feel like home?

We’re a team of Portland Real Estate Agents obsessed with elevating the community.

Dill Ward Group Portland Realtors, Hosts of Your Portland Guide

DETAILS:

Each month we invest back into the neighborhoods we serve by picking 3 businesses to offer the same high-quality professional media services & ad reach that we use to sell houses, to help local entrepreneurs promote their business for FREE.

Our hosts will come on site to the business and conduct a short interview with the owner, then provide the following:

High-End Short & Long Form Video Content: Professionally edited videos optimized for social media.

Premium Brand Photography: A collection of high-resolution images tailored for your website, social media, or print marketing materials.

Amplified Local Reach: Spotlights are promoted across our “Your Portland Guide” social channels and community newsletter, reaching thousands of local residents.

Zero-Cost Partnership: This is a true community investment. There are no hidden fees or strings attached because we know that when local businesses thrive, our community wins.

Past Episodes

Gifty Kitty

If you want to know what “Keep Portland Weird” actually looks like, this is it. It is a whimsical, cat-themed wonderland filled with handmade art from local makers. Actually, scratch that… it is more like a community hub for anyone who loves high-quality, local creativity and, well, cats. We featured them because they are the quintessential Portland small business. They turn a simple shop into a destination.

The Crystal Guide

This one is about more than just rocks and minerals. It is about resilience. The Crystal Guide has been a pillar for the neighborhood, offering everything from Reiki to locally made jewelry. Recently, they have had a really tough road with some unexpected repairs after a major accident at their location. Hold on, let me rephrase. This is the heart of the community, and we wanted to make sure their story was front and center while they work to get back on their feet. This is why we do this.

Bar Dune

Dune brings a completely different energy to the city. It is sleek and coastal but somehow still feels like an approachable neighborhood hangout. We caught the vibe of their space and the people who make it run. It is the kind of place that makes the Central Eastside feel like the place to be on a Friday night. Wait, I’m overcomplicating it. It is just a great bar with a great story.

Who should we feature next?
