What If …. Social Media on Hawaii

Some of the Hawaii Social Media Imagineers Who Will be Sharing On This Event

Aloha Friends! I am interrupting my usual blogging routine to invite you to an important “brainstorming” on Maui on Monday at 6PM at Maui Economic Development Board in Kihei. This event is particularly important to all who are involved or affected by the Hawaii Tourism, whether you are an official of Hawaii Tourism Authority (HTA), Maui Visitors Bureau (MVB) or Local Business Owners who caters to tourists and visitors n Maui. However, in my opinion, even if your business is not directly tourism related, are still many valuable tools you can learn from the “imagineers” who will be sharing.

As I am one of the IMAGINEERS on this event, I got to peek on the slides that will be used for the presentation.  Seeing how full of great ideas the slides were, I felt compelled to write a post about it to reach out to those who might not yet heard about this event. This brainstorming and “idea gathering” will not only inspire you to look deeply on using social media but also will give you well defined strategies that can easily be applied to your own business.

Be there. Don’t miss out on this opportunity. The cost of registration is minimal, simply for the use of MEDB facility. Click this link now to register: http://smchi-121022.eventbrite.com/

See you there!

 

P.S. The snorkeling post that I promise you will be uploaded on Tuesday. In the meantime, can I request you to share this information to your family and friends who you think will benefit from this event? Mahalo!

The Buy Back The Beach $5K Challenge

By on January 26, 2012 in Arts and Culture, Community, Events

The other day I shared about Buy Back The Beach Benefit Luau 2012 on my previous post. I know most of us want to help in one way or another. I want to highlight one thing that I think all of us can easily do, and yet leave maximum impact. You don’t have to be on Maui to do this…

THE  BUY BACK THE BEACH $5,000 challenge!  If we raise $5,000 by the end of the day on January 28, a generous donor will match it. That mean $10,000 for the protection and preservation of the beaches of Hawaii.  How to do it? Easy – just click the button below and it’ll take you to the Paypal file where you can donate, safely.

 *  To all my friends active on social media, let me share something with you … we are on a challenge here too.  Maui is still relatively new when it comes to harnessing the power of social media to do social good. I am stoked that HILT is willing to give this a try by collaborating with us, some of the active social media users on Maui, to help them achieve this mission of protecting and preserving Maui Beaches.  Would you do me a favor and help us social media users on Maui show our community that there is social media is for social good?  Any amount will be appreciated.  You can also help by sharing of this post to you and encouraging them to give.  I promise I won’t inundate you with fundraising posts – it’s just that this  one is for Maui, and I am A Maui Blog.  Aloha!

* If you donated, please leave a comment saying you did so we can publicly thank you via our tweets and posts.  Mahalo!
