Begin with the end in mind: My Personal Mission Statement

2014-02-20T18:48:00.000+08:00

I attended the 1st part of the seven habits of highly effective people training today and found it extremely useful to my professional and private life so far.

We were introduced the first three concepts of Highly effective people which focuses on building independence in individuals:

1) Be Proactive
2) Begin with the end in mind
3) Put first things first

In habit 2, we were taught that all things are created twice, with the mental creation first and followed by the physical creation or work. Highly effective people clearly see the outcome they want in every area of life before they act.

We were told to write a personal mission statement as it is a constitution by which we make all decisions for our life. Highly effective people shape their own future instead of letting other people, their culture, or their circumstances determine it.

Here are the benefits of a Personal Mission Statement:

1) Clarifies what is important to you
2) Provides focus
3) Helps you design your life instead of having it designed for you
4) Guides your day-to-day decisions
5) Gives you a greater sense of meaning and purpose

At the training, we were given 5 minutes to write our mission statement, free-flow manner and i thought I should pin down my writing here to constantly remind myself about my life, mission and vision.

Here's what I wrote:

Dennis Toh, 37, a child of God born to Alice Tshe and Steven Toh (deceased). A child blessed and called by the lord to do good things in life.

To worship our Lord Jesus and to exalt his name on high always.

To share the love of christ to his loved ones, friends and colleagues.

To contribute in creative ways that impact our world & community.

To be a person whom people can trust and relate to.

To be grounded and humble at all times, and to remember his teachings and roots; it's not about Dennis but its all about our Lord Jesus Christ who made all things possible.

To be of this world, yet not of this world.

To take on the off beaten track and to represent the marginalised.

To forget the past, live in the present and to create the future.

To live life without regrets.

To Love and To be loved.

Dennis Toh
20th Feb 2014

The above is my personal mission statement at this juncture of my life. What's yours?

Local Blogging Community seeks support on their craft

Local Bloggers in Singapore have gathered to ask the general public to support their craft by sharing their publicity video and to sign an online form. A cause #SupportSGBloggers has been created to let Singaporeans show their support and appreciation for the hard work of Bloggers in Singapore.

The image of bloggers has suffered due to recent controversies on bloggers demanding freebies from merchants such as restaurants or salons, etc. The job as a blogger has always been a difficult and thankless one. To bring the softer, up-to-date and important news to the general public, it demands time, effort, passion and determination to curate & perfect the content.

The campaign hopes to encourage Singaporeans to say 'YES' to the work of bloggers and to recognise the value of blogs and microsites in helping them make their day-to-day important decisions.

Hong Peng, a blogger who blogs at http://hpility.blogspot.sg/, and a director for the publicity video ‘We are Bloggers’ opined ‘This is a very timely and meaningful movement to get Singaporeans’ support on our craft. I have been blogging since 2007 and I take pride in attending events and launches, and bringing up-to-date information to all my readers. I see my job as an important one as it affects my readers’ decisions in all areas of their lives. I blog to see things differently and I hope Singaporeans can see the hard work we put in as bloggers’.

Wee Heng, a popular blogger who blogs at www.aspirantsg.com said, ‘Participating in this video has allowed like-minded bloggers to come together for a common goal, and simply, to share our joy and love for blogging, as this unique craft has been widely misunderstood. All of us have a deep passion and mission for blogging and we ensure our blog entries are professional. We hope Singaporeans can come forward to show us their support in this regard’.

Singaporeans can access "https://www.causes.com/campaigns/70778-raise-awareness-on-the-craft-of-blogging-in-singapore" https://www.causes.com/campaigns/70778-raise-awareness-on-the-craft-of-blogging-in-singapore to give their support. The campaign, which has a target of 1000 signatures, ends 31^st Jan 2014.

This initiative is spearheaded by The Influencer Network, the fastest Influencer PR Agency in Singapore.

Ways to support this cause:

1) Share the Publicity Video on Facebook and Social networks

2) HashTag #SupportSGBloggers on Twitter and Instagram

3) Sign the cause at "https://www.causes.com/campaigns/70778-raise-awareness-on-the-craft-of-blogging-in-singapore" https://www.causes.com/campaigns/70778-raise-awareness-on-the-craft-of-blogging-in-singapore

Key Messages in the Publicity Video ‘We are Bloggers’:

1) Bloggers love their craft

2) Bloggers want to be treated professionally

3) Bloggers keep up to the latest trends and happenings

4) Bloggers help customers by spreading meaningful word of mouth

5) Bloggers allocate time in between busy schedules to attend launches and events.

6) Bloggers take pride in their work

7) Bloggers just love to blog

8) Bloggers don't demand for freebies

9) Bloggers ensure their blog entries are professional

Feet Haven Reflexology opens 2nd outlet in Serangoon Gardens

2013-12-06T09:57:00.004+08:00

Feet Haven Reflexology opens 2nd outlet in Serangoon Gardens

Popular boutique Foot Reflexology brand, Feet Haven Reflexology opens its second branch in Serangoon Gardens, 4A Maju Avenue on 5th December 2013. The new outfit which boasts a total size of 1300 sq feet, is located above popular eatery Cedele and opposite MyVillage Shopping Centre.

Feet Haven Serangoon Gardens will have three luxurious rooms catering to patrons who opt for a therapeutic and relaxing body massage after a stressful day at work. Patrons can choose between traditional body massage which focuses on pinching and pressing at acupressure points or Swedish massage which comprises of long and flowing strokes.

Foot reflexology fanatics will have their desires satisfied with six spacious reflexology chairs placed in their 400 Sq Feet main hall. The treatment ranges from a 30 minute foot massage to an ultra-long session of 120 minutes.

Feet Haven Reflexology, which was established in April 2011 in Katong, has made heads turned, literally, as the shop garnered more interest and support from residents staying in Joo Chiat, Marine Parade, Katong and all over Singapore.

Feet Haven Reflexology was awarded the Best Foot Massage by Harpers Bazaar Spa Awards 2013 and In a recent Smart Shopper Road Test conducted by Simply Her March 2013 Edition, Feet Haven was rated the highest 8.5/10 out of four other Foot Spas and was given the title 'Best Value Simply Her Foot Spa'.

Centre Manager, Wendy Toh said ‘Opening a second outlet has always been in the wish list of the Feet Haven’s Management team. The first shop has received rave reviews and a lot of our customers, aka ‘Feethavenatics’ have suggested that we open more shops around Singapore. A lot of our customers like our unique and ‘boutique-like’ concept where it is not just a foot reflexology business, but a brand which embodies healing and art across our spirit, mind and body.’

The opening of the second outlet marks the expansion plan of reaching 10 outlets in the next ten years. The company welcomes any potential franchisee keen to build their own massage haven.

With this new addition, Feet Haven Reflexology now owns two Foot reflexology outlets: Katong branch located at 136 East Coast Road, and Serangoon Gardens Branch located at 4A Maju Avenue. The Foot Reflexology brand also owns a sister Manicure & Pedicure brand, Absolutely Nails.

How We turned Feet Haven Reflexology into a Social Brand

2013-09-22T23:58:00.004+08:00

How We turned FeetHaven Reflexology from this:

To this:

Feet Haven Reflexology is now one of the most social foot reflex brands in Singapore.

Feet Haven Reflexology was awarded the Best Foot Massage by Harpers Bazaar Spa Awards 2013. In a recent Smart Shopper Road Test conducted by Simply Her March 2013 Edition, Feet Haven was rated the highest 8.5/10 out of four other Foot Spas and was given the title ‘Best Value Simply Her Foot Spa’.

Feet Haven Reflexology was also featured in popular magazines like 8 Days, Cleo, Mother & Baby, Young Parents and Eastie Brekkie.

More than 20 bloggers have reviewed the brand and gave very positive feedback and comments about the Brand.

However, these achievements did not come easy. It was a case of God’s blessings, hard work and strategic marketing, in my opinion.

let me recount the process…

Together with my sister and my business partner TL, we acquired Feet Haven Reflexology in early February 2012. I wanted to start a foot reflex business as I was always interested in Entrepreneurship and have subscribed to my ‘Rich Dad’, who was always telling me to create a business early for myself and not to work for an employer for life.

Since switching to academia, I am always on the look out for potential business to buy over or to start a new business. In the month of December 2011, I saw a business takeover ad online and after doing some research on the location & business, I immediately arranged to meet up with the owner and went through many rounds of negotiations and discussions.

My instinct was to buy over the business immediately. Obviously there were many factors involved.

1) The location was perfect. Being near to then the newly refurbished shopping mall, i12, it presents bountless of opportunities for this shop.

2) The takeover fee was reasonable.

3) The demand for foot reflex, in my opinion, is rising considering the stressful environment we all live in.

The rest was history. The early months were difficult as we did not have enough experience managing a foot reflex shop. No doubt, we really learnt through the hard way.

However, we worked really hard as well. I remember working non-stop every weekend to manage the shop and to promote the services ourselves. We even have to go to the extend of giving out leaflets right outside our shop to draw people in.

Fast forward many months, Feet Haven Reflexology is now one of the most recognised Foot Reflex spa in the east region.

Our weekends’ slots are mostly packed! And we been getting alot of positive praises from our customers. Praise the Lord.

In my opinion, I attribute the success to many factors;

1) Sheer Hardwork

My business partner, Wendy and myself worked really hard to build this business. We were dedicated to the business and determined to build Feet Haven as a lifestyle brand and symbol, a place where people can find rest and relaxation for themselves.

2) Blogger Engagement

Part of our marketing strategy was to target all the bloggers in Singapore. I believe a strategic way to build buzz and word-of mouth online is to target the influencers and early adopters. These bloggers will help to amplify positive messages through their social networking spaces. so far, we have more than 20 bloggers reviewing our services.

We hit a total of 23.9k unique visitors for the past one year.

Here are some examples:

MoonBerryAnd while I was at Feet Haven, I couldn’t resist not getting some pampering so I went for the Yawn Medley treatment: 45 min foot reflexology + 15 min neck and shoulder massage at just SG$38!!! I totally needed it after too many hours of slouching while producing my Avian Project artwork. Hee.

3) The last reason, of course was because of God’s grace.

God is good all the time & God has been exceptionally good to me in 2013.

The Feet Haven today is a boutique foot reflexology that has received much support and interest from customers living all over Singapore.

There are plans to open a second shop in early february 2014. So stay tuned for more updates.

Tapestry strikes 12 at Feet Haven Reflexology

The first Midnight community and interactive play was staged at Feet Haven Reflexology on 22nd February 2012, After 12. Some 30 playback fanatics and feethaven's customers gathered at 1145pm to share their personal stories and moments after 12.

After 12 explores the whimsical dreams and fantastical encounters that people encounter after midnight. Based on Tapestry's rendition, the performers will re-enact the scenes for the story teller to reflect and relive those moments. Apart from the usual After 12 activities like checking facebook, watching HK TV dramas, sleep disorders and supper at famous eateries, some other unusual stories include a recollection of After 12 Army Days where recruits were all scared of going to the toilet but found camaraderie peeing together and an unusual dream of a long-lost dad who re-appeared in his daugther's dream telling her that everything is going to be alright.

After 12 was jointly organised by Tapestry Playback theatre and Feethaven Reflexology and this event is organised in conjunction of Feet Haven's 2nd year anniversary. This is also part of their initiative to support the local arts and entertainment.

Power Up your Influence Factor on Facebook

2013-01-11T16:51:00.000+08:00

Power Up Your Influence Factor on Facebook

Facebook is a social networking site that has been used widely in our daily lives. We access our mobile facebook app almost every sec simply to be in touch with our little world and community.

Facebook is now like our mini-television. We used to watch free-to-air and cable television religiously every night, watching serials and comedy & with the advent of technology, in particular social media and mobile phones, we are seeing ourselves gluing into our little phones, tablets for entertainment instead.

As we are wired into this social media community, it is inevitable that one needs to manage his or her own reputation. What we post online, whether pictures, words, videos would have implications to our online persona. In today's world where things and stuff we said become permanent and unretractable online, what we say or how we portrait ourselves might bite back on us, if we don't manage our online persona well.

Remember, perception is more important than the truth. Managing perception of yourself, in the eyes of your stakeholders is very important. Your stakeholders, like close friends, relatives, business associates, fb friends are all watching you as they check their facebook all the time. Inevitably, they will form an impression about you.

Based on my observation, I have coined 3 Dos and Don'ts which I think you should adhere to, when conducting yourself on Facebook.

Top 3 Don'ts

Don't keep posting information about what you are doing.
'I am now having lunch at Northpoint shopping centre'. 'I am just done with my meetings and going for my dinner now'. Such postings are OK. But if you do it excessively, you are not adding value to your audience.
Mundane postings are very much like the trashy commercials you watch after 12 midnight. They are uninteresting and pollute the air on television. Remember everyone is a content producer. We are subconsciously providing entertainment content to people connected to us on Facebook.

Don't keep posting advertising content
If you are a blogger; people want to know more about you, your life, your views & opinion. Posting product information, campaign details, reviews excessively will certainly bore your audience. Your audience want you to add value to their social networking space. They do not want to see overt advertising content in your daily updates, blogs or tweets. So be very selective about becoming a mouth piece for brands. You do not want to be seen as constantly endorsing brands and becoming a mouth piece for them. I think ocassional endorsement is good. It shows brands are interested in you and your value to them. But be very selective. You should align yourself only with big brands that reflect the stature of your personality online.

Stop the negativity
Social media connotes freedom of speech and expression. With Social media, it has open doors widely to bountless opportunities and possibilities. Social media has broken down barriers between the rich and the poor, the haves and the have nots, the political elites and commonmen, and empowered people to have a strong voice for change. The last thing you want is to inject fear, negativity and pessimism on Social Media. The traditional media thrives on sensationalism and negative news. So let positive news live on Social Media.

Top 3 Dos

Be part of the change
Social media has been used widely in campaigns, & injecting social and political change in our society. Social media has been used to empower individuals, groups, companies and given us a platform to raise a point, rally changes and to better our lives. Brands, non-profit groups, individuals, organisations have all used social media to effect good changes to our society. Campaigns like "Save the Earth', 'Aids Awareness', 'Love yourself' have all used social media as a tool to spread some good messages. If you believe in such noble causes, I think we should be part of the change; helping to spread the word, campaign, pictures to our friends through sharing or commenting on our facebook page.

Be a thought leader
If you want to be influential and be seen as a positive figure in the eyes of your stakeholders, perhaps you should starting posting statements or pictures that are profound and can uplift & challenge the minds of people. We all know powerful words and statements can evoke a sense of action and inspire us to challenge our status quo and situations. Do try to upload positive statements ( whether copied, or original) to make our social media space alot more uplifting and magical. As the saying goes, 'The truth will always reveal itself'; When everyone adds on to the process of searching for truth, the truth will find itself.

Be Humorous
One fundamental requirement for anyone to engage others online is to be simply, humorous. Humor sells and interesting jokes or anecdotes could be used to tell a story, or state a point. Do not be too afraid to make yourself look stupid on Social Media. Often times, when you are true to yourself, even to the extend of putting yourself down, you are being seen as authentic and real. In a world filled with stress, structures and seriousness, a little bit of humor might just do the trick.

Positioning yourself on social media goes a long way. It starts with being strategic in your updates and actions on Facebook always. Once you find the right way, you will realised that powering up your influence factor on Facebook is as easy as updating your Facebook status.

5 random thoughts on a Christmas Eve

2012-12-24T13:06:00.003+08:00

5 random thoughts on a Christmas Eve ( 24 December 2012)

As the year draws to a close, I thought I should pen my thoughts and experiences for the year 2012.

2012 is a year filled with many highs and lows, as with most other years. 2012 is a year where sex scandals, social media and smrt clogged the media agenda of local papers/media extensively.

While 2011 was very much focused on General Election. This year, it seems sex scandals, PSY pop culture and of course, Olympics became the flavor in 2012.

As usual, I will round up what I have learnt, and hopefully my learning will influence you to think alittle further, and to contribute in baby steps to make our world a better place.

1) A dirty secret for everyone

No matter how prominent, influential or powerful you are, I would like to think that everyone has a dark side. The high profile cases of Cecilia Sue/ Ng Boon Gay, Laura/ Michael Palmer have proven that it is easy to fall from grace especially if you are toying with infidelity lines. What came out from these dramasodes was that we need to believe that no one is perfect. Even the most powerful, influential, perfect or wealthy person has flaws. The question here is, are we qualified to judge and throw our little stones at these people, who happened to be in the media scrutiny and public interest? Don't we have our little secrets too?

2) Anyone can be a Gangnam style

The Gangnam style phenomenon has suggested that popular culture is transient and ever-evolving. The world has shifted their focus to Korea and out of a sudden, Korea is IN. This is partly enabled and propelled by Social Media and a likeable character & song, which happens to have the viral scalability. Social Media has levelled the playing field in my opinion. The social structures and bureaucracy of every society has broken down flatly as a result of the proliferation of social media. Early adopters who understand such opportunity would leverage on this trend and use social media to promote their causes, products or services. The question here is, are you able to accept that this 5 min of fame could be over in a matter of time?

3) Social Media vs Social Gatherings

Perhaps the major issue surrounding social media is the suggested lack of genuine and personal interactions amongst people, especially during social gatherings and functions. Much have been said about people obsessing with their cellphone, playing games, whatsapping, facebooking or instagraming during a regular dinner get together. And perhaps it is a matter of habit that people are checking their phone now and then, or perhaps people are just using such actions as a filler amidst the silence and awkward moments. Whatever it is, such actions have infiltrated deep into our lives and we have to learn to live with it. Whether it is social media or social gatherings, the question is, are we really interacting in today's world? Amidst the casual chats, laughters and get togethers, are there voids in ourselves that still cannot be filled?

4) Guns & Children

How can we not talk about this? The recent Connecticut shootings have opened up debates about gun control laws in the US. On the broader sense, there are many intricate points to discuss about. But what strucked me the most was why would an innocent looking young boy be so heartless to open fire at some cute little ones, & of course six other adults? I would like to think that he could be one of the long forgotten ones in our fast moving society.

Look closely around you ... & You might realised there could be many oppressed lonely souls out there bottling up their emotions, & waiting to end their own life. I'm not suggesting that everyone could be a potential killer. What I meant is that the thought to kill, assasinate, malign or speak ill of someone, could be equally hurtful. And all these actions perhaps sprung from our innate void and loneliness in us that manifested into a level when we don't see love & peace in our little own world.

One question is , why do we have to inject hurt and pain when we can't get love and peace. Why can't we be the agent of change by giving love and peace instead? If everyone starts doing so, in little ways, wouldn't this world be a safer & better place?

5) Commercialisation of Festivities

We all need reasons to celebrate, gather and spread love. Festivities provide marketers reasons to launch promotions, campaigns, and to get people to consume more. In a world of distrust, friends get together to feel safe, happy and connected to a wider world. What is the true meaning of Christmas? A time of celebration? A time to reconnect with friends? A time for office gift exchange?

Much have been discussed about the commercialisation and mainstreaming of festivities. Do we spend time exploring and understand the true meaning of the festivals we celebrate?

Christmas, to me, is a time to love and be loved. More importantly, it is to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, & God's love for us. In a time of clutter, commercialisation, media noise, I wonder, could we really find solitude in our lives, and explore the true meaning of living?

It seems harder and harder as we get by.

However, I know there are certain things we cannot change.

This serenity prayer is always entrenched in my life and prayer list.

'God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

The courage to change the things I can,

And the wisdom to know the difference'.

I sincerely hope you will find love, peace and joy during this Christmas season and May the Lord bless you richly and abundantly.

I believe 2013 will be your best year yet. So drink more, be merry & stay pretty & handsome this holiday season.

Take care folks.

Leos on August 8

2012-08-08T10:16:00.001+08:00

Received an email from my boss this morning wrt Leos born on August 8.

Some parts are rather true. What do you think?

Leos born on August 8 can seem unemotional or even distant but are simply self-disciplined and in control of themselves. Although they are often forced to climb the hard road to success, they actually wouldn't have it any other way. An eagerness to feel as if they have earned every opportunity they receive is in their character. (This explains the coolness about the man)

Friends and Lovers

Friendship is an important part of life for August 8 natives, but it doesn't keep them from speaking their minds about issues that could be a source of controversy between them and their pals. In love, they are strongly marriage-minded. Once they fall in love, they want to settle down and make a home. (so when is the BIG day?)

Health

August 8 people have a sensible approach to keeping fit, especially if they're at genetic risk for an illness or disease. They should make weight-bearing exercise and aerobic workout part of their daily routine. (no wonder leisure is all about exercise and sports)

Career and Finances

August 8 natives have a take-charge attitude and do well in careers where they are responsible for motivating others. They are conservative about money matters. They rarely make any serious mistakes concerning their financial position. (Glad to know you will do more and save more!)

Dreams and Goals

August 8 individuals achieve success one step at a time. They don't look for shortcuts, believing that hard work and good planning are what make dreams come true. They're likely to achieve their dreams, though they seldom go beyond them. (more work/assignment coming your way )

Happiness always,

Sue

Thank you Sue.

Are you a Power 'Editorial' or 'Advertising' Blogger?

2012-06-14T20:00:00.002+08:00

Are you a power 'editorial' or 'advertising' blogger, that is the question?

Fundamentally, Advertising and Public relations are two very different disciplines.

While Advertising is a paid form of communication, often less credible and costly, Public relations is the exact opposite. Public relations is the deliberate, planned, and sustained effort to establish and maintain a preferred point of view. Public Relations builds good will, & sustain a long term- relationship with our stakeholders.

From a marketer's perspective, advertising provides an immediate solution in ensuring that marketing messages penetrate quickly into the minds of consumers. Since it is often paid, Marketers can control product messsages, promotions or launches and ensure they sink fast into the market.

Public relations is used in a more subtle way, often in the form of product publicity, embedded in news reports and articles. You'll read traces of PR from news reporting, product reviews, commentaries, documentaries, dramas and the list goes on.

It has been said that Public relations is valued more highly by consumers as it is often non-biased and endorsed by a third party source. Advertising, on the other hand, is often seen as too contrived and in your face.

In the media world, the editorial and advertising team are two separate divisions often functioning independently. The editorial team will hold on to their editorial perogatives and will only report anything that is factual, news worthy and interesting. The Advertising people, on the other hand, are focused on meeting sales figures, targets, creative selling and perhaps finding ways to help their clients get more mentions in their editorial team's papers. I know for a fact these two divisions are constantly at odds over sales, paid advertorials, sponsored series, editorials, as they are fundamentally different.

In the same token, the fundamental differences of advertising and PR can be applied & found in the realm of Blogging.

My Question: I wonder if there are too many blog posts recently focusing on product launches, food tastings, product reviews, contests.

I question whether an over emphasis of 'advertising' content in blog posts could potentially dilute the equity of a blog or even the overall discipline of blogging?

I suspect this trend is a result of increased marketers' interests in engaging bloggers and the increasing number of contests, events targeted at the bloggers.

Bloggers lose focus as a result. Technically speaking, the rigour & spirit of blogging is about freedom of speech, expression and having a point of view to change perceptions in our society. The role of a blogger is important as bloggers are opinion leaders who are able to sway public opinion. Since they are often not bounded by media red tapes and structures, bloggers have the free play to write whatever they want. That is one reason why celebrity bloggers like Mr Brown and Xiaxue have up their rank in social influence as they believe their independent voice matter and they understand the need to strike balance between 'advertising' & 'editorial' content in their blogs.

Don't get me wrong, fellow blogger friends (if you are a blogger). As a PR person, bloggers are bread and butter, and extremely important in my area of work. I have had the opportunity to meet many interesting and colourful bloggers, & often they are ever ready to help me. What I am saying is, amidst the numerous media events & launches we attend and free products received, are we losing focus on the basic reason of blogging? Was it to share more about our lives? To propagate a cause? or to help make the world a better place?

While I think a certain amount of 'advertising' content is needed to fill the holes of blogs, I believe credible bloggers are those who have a stand, a point of view, and even strongly believing in progating certain causes that benefit the society.

I think at end of the day, it boils down to the basic reason for the establishment of the blog. If the blog is all about bringing advertising messages, or the latest in town, that itself, could be an interesting proposition.

While bloggers depend heavily on marketers and brand managers for invites, press releases, and products trials, let's not forget that your personal voice matter too.

And perhaps the way to go is to strike a good balance.

Be a power 'editorial' and 'advertising' Blogger today.

A colourful splash for the arts community

A colourful splash for the arts community

SINGAPORE, 8 JUNE 2012 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

A local Foot Reflexology spa has taken baby steps to make a colourful splash for the arts community.

Feet Haven Reflexology, a premier foot reflexology spa located at 136 East Coast Road has recently pledged itself to support the arts scene, and in particular the local artists in Singapore. This eight month long campaign provides aspiring and inspiring artists a chance and platform to showcase themselves and their art pieces in the shop premise.

Local artists who sign up with the company are given a chance to showcase their art pieces on the walls for a period of one month. Patrons enjoy a good view of the art gallery while they receive the therapeutic foot massages.

Centre Manager Wendy Toh highlighted that the initiative is to cultivate an appreciation of local arts and entertainment amongst Singaporeans. “We felt that there aren’t many platforms for aspiring artists to showcase their work in Singapore and we thought it will be a good opportunity to raise the awareness of appreciating arts and at the same time, putting this gesture into real action.

The star for the month of June is Karen Seah who was recently inspired by a local artist she met at a milonga (tango dancing place) in Buenos Aires, Argentina. They met the following Friday for a painting session and since then Karen continues. Currently in her works, which is showcased in the shop, Karen explores colors and circles, including Tai-ji symbols.

Feet Haven Reflexology, a premier foot reflexology spa located at 136 East Coast Road has recently made heads turned, literally as the shop garnered more interest and support from residents staying in Joo Chiat, Marine Parade and Katong area. Established in April 2011, customers of Feet Haven can choose from its many services such as Foot, Shoulder and Neck and Body massage.

Feet Haven is now open 7 days a week from 1pm to 10pm from Monday to Thursday, 1pm to 11pm on Sunday and 12 noon to 11pm on Saturday and Saturday.

The Kings of Blogging

2012-06-07T14:45:00.002+08:00

The Kings of Blogging

Engagement of bloggers has been integral to the success of all marketing and public relations campaigns. Bloggers are important word of mouth champions for your brand or organisation. Bloggers, if engaged correctly, can make or break a brand. Think Xiaxue and you will know what i mean. She has the capacity to destroy a brand and also the clout to get her followers to like a brand or personality. Bloggers, more often than not, can influence and sway public opinions based on their blog entries and sides they take.

The art of blogging has been said to be a difficult one. Bloggers need to spend time, attending events, studying press releases, taking photos and building readership for their blogs. It's not easy. I salute the amount of time, energy and effort spent into putting up the final blog entry.

The bloggersphere, if you like, has been dominated by females, largely because of the potential fanfare they can create in their blogs; colourful blog template, stylish clothes, bombastic words and cutesy ornaments or accessories used to doll their blog.

The male bloggers, on the other hand, have been largely forgetten simply because they do not wear a skirt.

Can a male blogger be as popular as a female one like Xiaxue, Bong Qiu Qiu, Dawn Yang, Peggy Heng, etc?

Let's not even talk about Steven Lim who is largely infamous for his online antics. Perhaps the most popular male blogger in Singapore is Mr Brown, who is largely a current affairs and political blogger. Still, Mr Brown doesn't come across as someone who has the colours and huge personality to draw you religiously to his blog.

So today, the purpose of this blog entry is to highlight 5 interesting male bloggers which Marketers or PR folks can engage. They are influential and colourful in my opinion. And I thought it will be great to highlight them for your reference.

Blogger 1: William Tan
www.Onlywilliam.blogspot.sg

William is one of the most hardworking and social media savvy blogger I have known. He attends almost every function and adds value to his blog entries by giving additional information relevant for his audience. He is also always ready to help should you need to get additional bloggers for your event, and more importantly, always with a smile on his face. He is likeable and popular amongst his peers and he is the man behind the Kiehl's boy club. Some brands which he has helped to endorsed are Kiehl, Kaplan, Kit Kat, Pizza Hut, Tiger Beer and the list goes on.

His forte is on lifestyle, food, travel and anything under the sun. A blogger who is always willing to help.

Blogger 2: Aspirant SG
http://www.aspirantsg.com/

This up & coming digital star is paving waves into the social media influencers market in a fast and furious way. As a day time Marketing professional, Aspirant ( not his real name) spent his time strategizing marketing strategies for his company & products he sells. At night, he turns into a social media expert, tweeting, facebooking and instagraming on topics like food, travel and all things digital. The inside story to his success was a 3 day course he attended, where he learnt the ropes and tricks from an established practitioner and the rest were history. Till date, His twitter account speaks of 23,000 followers with a Klout score of 62. His followers on twitter is increasing on a furious rate, mind you.

His focus is largely on food, travel and social media. If you have a food tasting event or an opening of a store, do send him an invite as I am sure he will be more than willing to help, and to bring the news to his international audience.

Blogger 3: Yutakis James
http://www.yutakis.com/

Who doesn't know this Jap pop star looking blogger in Singapore? Everyone knows Yutakis. Yutakis has been associated with glamour and the high fashion industry. His photo blog is very much focused on his portraits and the clothes he model for. He started blogging in 2007 when he entered Polytechnic and since then, he blogs heavily on relationship dramas, friendship conflicts, endless wasted clubbing nights, different types of cuisines, blog wars, Britney Spears and yeah of course, pictures of himself. He has the capability of getting attention for himself and also the friends around him.

I have personally tried inviting him to some PR events but Yutakis is very selective over the type of events he attends. Hence, if you need help from him, do try to add him on facebook or even contact him via email or whatsapp. He might respond if he is keen.

Email him yutakis@hotmail.com

Blogger 4: Alvinology
www.Alvinology.com

Alvin is definitely not the hottest in the looks category. In fact, if you meet him in person, he looks like a serious no nonsense IT geek. This quiet unassuming blogger is currently in Sydney attending a Flyscoot sponsored trip and above picture was a latest post on facebook by him. His focus is on food, gears and gadgets and ocassionally on family and current affairs. He is definitely a very influential blogger, partly because of his unique position in SPH Omy. He is the manager in charge of the SPH Omy division, which essentially deals with Blogger Engagement campaigns and contests for companies. If you are representing a NGO, with a cause to promote or products targeting men or families, perhaps Alvin could be one important blogger to target. One last thing, he also holds very strong views regarding the local politics in Singapore.

Email him at: alvin.sph@gmail.com

Blogger 5: Darren Ng
http://celebratelah.wordpress.com/

Darren Ng lives life to the fullest and is constantly traveling. He was the winner for the Urban homme challenge in 2010 and many other traveling related blogging contests. He is into photography and has won the Panasonic ECO Best Photography Blog as a finalist and the winner of Best Lifestyle Blog in 2010. If you are representing a lifestyle or men brand, he is the perfect blogger for you.

Nicole Seah Speaks on Sticky Lady

2012-06-06T00:43:00.001+08:00

Reposting Nicole Seah's note on the arrest of the Sticker Lady..this is one politician I respect!

The arrest of the Sticker Lady has caused a public uproar, because many are understandably disappointed that such swift action was taken against a person who executed street art, against the backdrop of other more serious cases that warranted public attention in the past but were not addressed publicly.

It is unfortunate but true, that we will never be able to achieve the state of a truly creative society if we continue to place these boundaries around ourselves. We cannot foster a culture that aims to be daring and innovative whilst slapping ourselves on the wrist each time we move out of line.

I am not advocating a chaotic society. But we need to acknowledge that there needs to be a certain degree of tolerance for organic, bottom-up creative activities if we want to progress as a cosmopolitan society. We cannot purely enforce economic growth without strengthening our culture. It causes imbalance and limits our true growth as a nation.

Being made to conform to a particular school of thought or life path may have worked in the past. But we are not born to be clones of each other. If we do not nurture the richness that diversity and creativity brings, we will end up alienating the people who espouse these ideals best. And the day will come where they will either be entirely stifled, or take that creativity elsewhere to other developed nations that will welcome their talent with open arms.

I urge the authorities to refrain from severe penalty, and to treat such incidents that border on the artistic with a light touch, although there still remains the need to be vigilant against acts that threaten public security.

Tangtalising night at 116 Neil Road

2012-06-04T23:39:00.001+08:00

I organized a food tasting session tonight for Tang HK Gourmet located at 116 Neil Road. 8 bloggers together with the co-founder of Hungrygowhere.com Hoong An had a taste of delectable treats of chinese cuisine specially prepared by celebrity chef Benson Tong. The highlight of the night, apart from Bloggers catching up and sharing their experience and journey in blogging, was Hoong An's personal sharing of the acquisition of Hungrygowhere.com by Singtel. I took the opportunity to ask him matters relating to acquisition and remuneration matters. The humble and down-to-earth technopreneur highlighted that the road hasn't been smooth. he is still adjusting to the changes in corporate culture and obviously the need to dress more formally. Recounting an incident, Hoong an said he once wore casuals to work and bumped into a senior chap who exclaimed 'are you ok?' we all burst into laughers after hearing that.

The night ended with bloggers exchanging personal and social media contacts.
