Making Things Happen

Okay folks, Skinny here. It’s been a busy week getting the layout of the page and all the various pieces of HTML working together, but I finally have a spare minute to make an actual post.

We’re going to continue to improve things by adding Picassa galleries to the site, enabling us to have images and make things generally more interesting.

I also want to take the opportunity to formally announce that I’m starting a campaign to get a Chipotle opened up here in Seoul.

Some time ago I contacted the corporation through their website proposing the idea. Several weeks went by with no response, when I finally got a response. Since then I haven’t done anything else about it, but I have had a long-standing plan to email them a few pictures of western business that are thriving in prime locations in Seoul.

I’m thinking about other options as well, such as an online petition, MySpace page, etc, so that in a few months I can send it back to the people that contact me and say, “Look at X number of people that are on this website and likely to be repeat customers of a Chipotle in Seoul.”

I’ve also done a little bit of research and seen that foreign companies such as Chipotle, which do NOT typically franchise, usually have special half-and-half arrangements (sorry, I don’t know fancy business words) with a Korean corporation. So, I need to find some prospects for this as well.

Anyway, I need to run. Look for bigger and better things to continually develop here at Seoul Steve’s while we come the number 1 source of events and activities going on in Seoul and Korea.
