Pat Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Who is paying for this major undertaking project. Doesn't sound like local ownership. Who is the sponsor? Sounds like a lot of duplication with what is already offered here in Boquete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is really no information about who "All about Boquete" is! Experience and background on who is behind the curtain would be nice. Also: " Built for tourists and locals alike by a Boquete resident, passionate about getting Boquete wired and online." Like we are not already wired and online???? With all the info about Boquete here on CL, Boquete Newslady, and the several Boquete Groups on Facebook, it would seem this All About Boquete would be redundant. Unless it is going to be set up for an advertising stream of income for whoever is behind it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margie Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Absolutely untrue! I am behind this site, I have a background in social media and internet marketing, and I am local. My husband and I live here full time and we live in Volcancito with dogs, cats, horses and chickens. Here I am in the David Cabalgata with Edilberto Gaitan and Lauretta Bonfiglio. I just hosted the Volcancito Cabalgata on July 16th, you will generally find me riding my bay quarter horse stallion or my appaloosa mare in any cabalgata within 50 miles and often up and down Volcancito Road. Our group of riders is why Big Daddy's now has a horse parking sign. I am not sure which sites you are referring to as being like this one. In general the comment I hear the most is "thank you so much for doing this, is is so needed!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Margie Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Quote Don't know them, no association. I mean I know who they are - but I don't personally no anyone there. Haven't been to the seminar. Are you always so skeptical? It's curious... Haven't any reactions like this to date. Onward and upward! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is definitely a local person, a recently arrived expat with a lot of energy for various projects, including this one. Don't let the cynics get you down Margie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the States if you want to sell your car you can post it in your local newspaper, on Craigslist, auto trader, cars.com, and any number of other places. And if you want to know what's happening in your area you check Facebook, your local newspaper, listen to the radio or whatever else. In my opinion, if All About Boquete continues pushing their site the way they have been, more people will go in that direction. Right now they appear to be very busy getting visibility. Honestly, if I were going to rent my house today, I'd post it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IL is targeted toward people looking to live internationally. This new site appears to be focused on events and classifieds. I don't see the parallel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
