Steady Growth In Kapolei!
March 12, 2009 By
Kapolei has been steadily growing with Costco, Target, Petco and Sports Authority having their grand openings this past weekend. My wife and I took a drive to Safeway and took a couple of pictures on the way home. I’m excited about all of the growth that’s happening out here during these hard times. The openings of these new companies provided a lot of jobs that are badly needed out here on the west side of Oahu.
It’s nice to see that the parking lot was crowded and lot of shoppers spending money tonight. I just hope that our economy starts to get better. The experts are saying that it’s going to get worse before it gets better. I’m hoping that their wrong! Well, I don’t like the doom and gloom reports so I’m going to end this on a positive note. This is great news! More jobs for West Oahu… Construction on $500M West Oahu complex expected to start in 2010. Click the link: $500M West Oahu Complex

Twitter, Twitter, Twitter!

One of the best social tools created, that rapidly gained popularity in a short period of time. Twitter is a mini-blog that let its users post as much as 140 characters to its followers. Followers could be friends, family, business acquaintance or people who find your tweets interesting.
Since the conception of twitter there have been many other additions’s to complement the mini-blog idea. From twitter locators, twitpics twitter groups, twitter grader, twitter feed and most recent, bubble tweet which adds a 30 second video bubble that appears on your twitter page, delivers your message and disappears. Twitter is a great idea for your social pleasure.
Socializing, interacting and providing useful updates can create a lot of people following you. Twitter is also used for networking, latest news updates and all sorts of information that you can provide to your followers within your 140 character limitation. The key here is to add value to your tweets. Oh yes, there are boundaries that shouldn’t be crossed and you will see people spamming but it’s easy to solve that problem, “UNFOLLOW”!
Relationship building can be a great experience using Twitter. What better way to meet new friends and build a relationship. It’s almost like a forum, participate add value and build relationships. A lot of local tweet-ups are popping up all over the place. People are organizing tweet-ups to get together over lunch or a drink and socialize, take pictures or videos and add to their blogs.
Marketing with twitter can be another avenue to pursue as long as you’re careful the way you present yourself. Trying to sell and push your marketing to your followers will only turn them off, which could lead them to unfollow you. Twitter is a free tool to use and can be a marketers dream come true if you build relationships. Twitter is a Hugh community of friendly people.
