BBB Trust Guide

In 2023, BBB Akron published the first edition of the BBB Trust Guide. This annual publication is focused on educating businesses and consumers about Better Business Bureau's programs and services, helpful resources, scam awareness, and more.

Our BBB Trust Guide provides exclusive advertising opportunities for our Accredited Businesses.

Secure your spot

Preparation for the 2025 BBB Trust Guide has begun. BBB invites you to secure your spot in this year’s edition to increase your business exposure and boost your brand. 

New Feature

We are excited to implement a new feature from our Accredited Business' valuable feedback. The digital copy of the 2025 BBB Trust Guide will link directly to our advertisers’ websites or BBB Business Profile. 

We will continue to listen and develop this publication, focusing on educating consumers about Better Business Bureau, helpful resources, scam awareness, and more.

2024 Impact

In February, over 140,000 copies of the 2024 BBB Trust Guide in print and digital format were circulated throughout Ashland, Medina, Portage, Richland, Summit and Wayne counties. We are committed to developing this publication and fostering new partnerships to expand the BBB Trust Guide readership.
