What is the Ambassador Program?

The Search Small Ambassador Program invites local Colombians to play an active role in shaping how Medellín is experienced, supported, and invested in. Ambassadors are community connectors, storytellers, and advocates who bridge the gap between local businesses and a growing audience of travelers, foreigners, and conscious consumers. Working alongside The FAVRs, ambassadors keep the platform rooted in authenticity, cultural awareness, and real community impact.

What ambassadors do

  • Write and contribute articles highlighting neighborhoods, businesses, and cultural insights
  • Build relationships with local business owners and help with outreach and partnerships
  • Represent Search Small at events, gatherings, and community activations
  • Collaborate on social media content and storytelling campaigns
  • Share ongoing feedback to help shape the platform from real, on-the-ground experience

What you get

  • A featured listing on the Search Small directory to highlight your work, brand, or services
  • Social media collaborations to expand your reach and audience
  • Free website design and maintenance, with reduced online payment-processing fees for your business
  • Access to networking opportunities, events, and collaborations in the community
  • The opportunity to grow with a platform built for long-term local impact

Who makes a great ambassador

This program is for people deeply connected to Medellín and passionate about supporting local businesses and communities — creatives, entrepreneurs, community leaders, and anyone who wants to help build a more intentional and equitable local economy.

The vision

Search Small MDE is more than a directory. It's a growing ecosystem built to increase visibility, access, and opportunity for local businesses — especially those that are often overlooked. Ambassadors are essential to that vision. Together, we can make sure that as Medellín grows as a global destination, the communities that shape the city are seen, supported, and sustained.
