    Vacation in Phoenix/Sedona

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Awesome, thanks for all of the recommendations! I'm getting really excited to head out there...I have a feeling I'm going to really like it in Arizona. And I'm most likely going to make it back again for the conference in February, so this will be a nice preview. Since it will be kind of cold...

    Vacation in Phoenix/Sedona

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hey all, My 2-year anniversary with the girlfriend is coming up in November and we're planning a vacation. In the past we've gone to Mexico, but I suggested we try to venture off to somewhere in the US where neither of us have been before and we both agreed on Arizona. We both currently live...

    Hey quick question on trademarking. If "Blue Car" is trademarked, are you allowed to trademark or use "The Blue Car" or no? Thanks

    Outsourcing Social Media

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    I'll try that one out. What are your methods of generating content? Since I don't have a product yet, right now I'm just focusing on adding value by educating the audience on the benefits of various superfoods, posting pictures of healthy eating, and made a couple of motivational quote images...

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Thanks Allen, I'll checkout your thread. Btw, I came across an app called JustUnfollow which you may find useful. It basically let's you easily build a list of accounts that are similar to yours and your niche. You type in a competitor's account, and it scrapes their followers so its easier...

    Outsourcing Social Media

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    @AllenCrawley Yeah a very silly move on my part. I was trying to increase social proof as I only had 8 followers and was following 50 people. Back to building it organically via liking / commenting on people's posts. Is that how you built yours up?

    Outsourcing Social Media

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    I just made a rookie mistake...lesson learned. I paid someone on Fiverr to give me more followers. Epic fail! Blatantly fake accounts with 5 posts all unrelated to each other. I spent the past 30min manually blocking each user to get back down to my normal follower #. Never again.

    Outsourcing Social Media

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    @mgore714 Are there any issues around copyright/licensing by scraping Tumblr and reposting the images on Instagram? I'm guessing you either coded or bought the scraper? I've never used one before, but came across some while searching. Can you direct me to one that you recommend? Thanks

    Hey all, I need some help on outsourcing social media. If there's already a thread on this, my apologies and please redirect me as I couldn't find anything on it. As I get my business going on instagram, I'm realizing it's really time consuming to make content/images to post. Can someone...

    Awesome find! I'm reading http://startupguide.com/entrepreneurship/the-story/ and it's amazing how young he was when he started learning valuable life lessons. Reminds me a lot of Gurbaksh Chahal (sold two companies for a total of $340mm by age 25). If you want to listen to him talk through...

    How I Made My Millions

    MINDSET 
    I just came across a great series on CNBC called "How I Made My Millions." The series features the startup stories of companies like Dyson, Auntie Anne's Pretzels, 1-800 Got Junk, etc. Great series worth watching if you're looking for some inspiration. http://www.cnbc.com/id/38657599#. You...

    How'd You Get So Rich? TV Show

    Yeah I agree. Not much educational value, just motivational. Probably more efficient to just find out who is featured on the show and google them to read up on their stories. And the interviews at red lights are hilarious. On the episode I watched, the kid's father started a cookie diet...

    How'd You Get So Rich? TV Show

    Have any of you seen the show "How'd You Get So Rich?" I was browsing Hulu and it recommended it after I watched the Profit. The show came out in 2010 and is pretty much MTV Cribs for Entrepreneurs. I was able to get my hands on one of the episodes and it featured an inside look into the...
