The carrots come to HOTLIPS on June 21

by Tim on May 23, 2009

We’re very excited to announce that Carrotmob is tentatively planned for June 21, 2009 at HOTLIPS Pizza on SE 22nd and Hawthorne! 100% of their revenue for that day is pledged for energy-efficiency improvements. That’s phenomenal. We’re struck by their enthusiasm–as soon as we called them to ask to talk to them, they said “Come on over” and offered us 100%. Come help Carrotmob live up to its reputation and make the day a great success for them!

Based on the enthusiasm of other pizza stores, too, we want to hold another event later in the summer if this first one works out. Portland has always had a reputation of loving the environment. No city in the US has had multiple Carrotmobs yet (as far as I know). There is a lot that has to go right, but Portland could be the first one to do so.

Keep on mobbing!

Carrotmob – still going strong

by Tim on May 19, 2009

In case you were assuming we’d given up based on our previous post… Carrotmob is talking with a few pizza places around Portland who have expressed interest. We’re working hard on securing one of them in particular, but we won’t be overly-hasty like we were last time.

Keep on the lookout, though, for a Carrotmob within the next month! We’re really excited. In the meantime, join the mailing list (to the right), join the Facebook group, or follow our Twitter.
