It is easy to feel like a slave to social media – especially if you’re not awesome at it. There is a special type of shame that goes with realizing that 14-year-old girls are better at some parts of your job than you are. This is not knocking 14-year-old girls. It is painfully clear that this particular demographic…

Before I got involved in this whole startup scene, the word “pivot” only conjured up excruciating memories of basketball practice when I was kid. I was one of those awkward gangly girls that hit max height in fifth grade, so basketball was the obvious choice for a team sport. Unfortunately, my height didn’t…
A few weeks ago, while I had 10 tabs opened, 5 different passwords entered and several bookmarked sites scattered about, I thought to myself there has to be a simpler way to manage all my favorite sites.

‘Tis the season for looking back and taking stock of the year.

Hello weekend warriors! I hope you’ve had a productive week filled with checked “to-do” lists and mini dance breaks. I can’t be the only one that busts a move when a late-90’s club hit comes on! Right, I’m sure you’ve been waiting with bated breath for the Friday Tech Top Ten. There have been some pretty sweet…

I have had great success combining physical flyers with QR codes which drive traffic to mobile-friendly landing pages or solicit mobile-friendly actions. Use a QR code plus Clicktotweet.com to generate an instant tweet from someone holding your flyer. This works great with Facebook Check-ins and Likes…

Brian Zuercher had a precocious interest in business for a boy from the Buckeye State. He likes his sports, too, but ever since the days of running the school store, the entrepreneurial path has beckoned him to take a road less obvious. That’s not to say his travels as a startup CEO and founder have always gone smoothly or that his vision of the journey has always been clear.
