All aboard! Social Media Train Gearing up to Awesomize your Business in 2011


As more and more studies on social media are released, the more I am getting excited about our new venture, awesomize.me that we launched last month from the heart of the Awesome Washington, D.C. :-)

The recent study by eMarketer’s predicts that 80% of the businesses will adopt social media for their marketing purposes in 2011. The global surveys indicates that over 30 percent of those businesses don’t even have a social media policy. The report also says marketers that have spent the past few years ramping up their internal social media marketing infrastructure—and their presence on sites such as Facebook and Twitter —will take social media to new heights in 2011.

Businesses Will Be Flocking to Social Media in 2011

and the Washingtonian startup,  awesomize.me will be there to greet them :-)

It was exactly a month ago today that we launched the beta version of our new venture, awesomize.me that targets both consumers and enterprises.  I’ve believed in our business model on day first, the latest study by the IT research firm, IDC, is giving me even more confidence about the concept. With the explosion of social media phenomena, one of the awesomize.me‘s mission is to assist business owners to select the right social media channels for their operation as well as connecting them to the right strategic partners and clients.

The new study titled “Top 10 Predictions 2011” shows that businesses will increasingly turn to social networking tools in 2011. It also noted that many small and medium-sized businesses will turn to social networks such as Facebook to establish a free online presence that improves their ability to acquire, engage, and retain customers without the hassle and cost of setting up a traditional Web site.

Happy 1st Birthday Awesome DC!


I am very excited to remind you all that it was exactly a year ago today I launched Awesome DC. Unfortunately, I am currently not in DC to throw a big party, but I intend to do so upon my return from the EU on December 13th :-)

Why did I  launch Awesome DC?

Simple!  as I made it clear in about us section of the site, to position our Nation’s capital as the technology hub as well as city of parties, hot events, and clubbing. In a nut shell to show the world Washington, DC is much more than just politics, corruption, and scandals. Have I achieved that? not quite yet :-( With your continuous support, I strongly believe it will get there within the next 5 to 10 years  :-) We have been covering everything happening in DC, but politic and religion :-)
