The Big Picture Guides

The Big Picture Guides is a company that was created to release visual how-to guides so that you can quickly and easily learn about any topic that has been covered. The business is run by a couple — Chris and Laura. Chris came up with the idea after realizing that while most people are visual learners, not many instruction manuals and how-to books are tailored to fit this majority. After a couple years of brainstorming and researching the best ways to teach visual learners, he and Laura finally created their business.

The Big Picture Guides is built upon the notion that “A picture is worth a thousand words.” The guides are concise, yet thorough how-to books that are designed to be understood as easily as possible. Rather than using vast amounts of words, the guides show you, step by step, how to obtain skills and grasp overall concepts. Topics are broken down visually, so that you “get it” without having to read the pages of text it takes to explain what can simply be shown. Because The Big Picture Guides eliminate lengthy explanations, the learning process is greatly accelerated, and you are able to gain a more complete understanding of each topic—the big picture—in the least amount of time.

Essentially, The Big Picture Guides is a company dedicated to doing the research, muddling through the guesswork, and finding the right ways to perform skill sets—so that you can learn what you want to know without the hassle!

Learn The Natural Way: Visually

Most people in the world learn best visually, but strangely, many books, guides, and manuals that aim to teach do not take full advantage of this fact. However, even those who are not visual learners can benefit immensely from taking in visual cues as they learn. For example, if you were interested in becoming a fine dining waitress or waiter, would you rather learn how to properly open a bottle of wine by seeing a few step-by-step pictures, or read paragraphs of text explaining the intricacies of each individual step? If you answered “The pictures,” then our visual guides are perfect for you!

Essentially, the Big Picture Guides are visual how-to books set up as series of photographs, which demonstrate how to perform skills, step by step. The words included in our books are simple and concise, and serve to fill in the gaps and clarify where needed (i.e. “Twist clockwise” or “Wait 10 minutes”). Thus, our pictures replace those “thousand words,” so you can gain new knowledge and begin applying it faster than ever!
