AlikeList is the simplest way to save, share and find lists of businesses you can trust.
AlikeList was founded and is lead by several family guys who’re passionate about easily connecting their families, friends, colleagues and communities with valuable and trusted local businesses.
AlikeList is the place where people who know each other and think alike share lists of their favorite local businesses.
* People trust referrals from friends and family more than those from strangers.
* Sometimes knowing who is making a recommendation is just as important as which businesses they’re recommending.
