What CalBizBloggers are Reading
Our sincerest apologies for missing last week, but with the 4th of July holiday it was
an excellent opportunity to take some time off to reflect back on the third anniversary of
the release of the California Business Minute and its corresponding blog - the CalBizBlog.
Together the two sites receive about 4500 hits a month. Yeah we are discouraged. We
would have hoped by now that the value of the information presented, such as the annual report -California: Ranked, Rated and Graded coupled with the features such as Raising
the Republic, Practitioner's Perspective, CAEO Corner and the monthly showcasing of the state's major economic segments coupled with the weekly commentary and insight presented at the CalBizBlog would have by now yielded 10,000 hits a month.
But apparently, it is tough to get the business, community, economic development, workforce and redevelopment professionals (our intended on-line community) to read all of the news and information on the businesses and economy of California.
We receive no compensation for this action. It is strictly published for the love of the state
and profession of economic development. But for those thristy 4500 we can't thank you enough.
To honor you, we present three great pieces this week. CitiBank has released its quarterly survey, the California Pulse illustrating information on the input from Californians about the state budget. The second article is on a survey completed for the San Diego-based trade association - Vistage which is comprised of CEO's from small and medium companies and their thoughts about the future of the economy. The third is a guest commentary about the attraction of an out-of -state manufacturer that was attracted through the use of financing from the state infrastructure bank written by Stan Hazelroth, its executive director. Enjoy!
Lastly, we appreciate your support through your readership and we would really appreciate you sharing our efforts with others to increase a groundswell in readership.
Thanks!
