Guest Post: An Intro to Employee Drug Testing

Because I am away getting married right now, I wanted to make sure there was some sort of blog posted to fill the void. Therefore, I have called upon Robyn Schelenz (great last syllable) to write a guest post about employee drug testing. Drug testing has always been a very interesting topic for employers and [...]

I’m Off To Get Married

Today, I am leaving on a jet plane destined for Colorado, the location that will change my life forever. For those that don’t follow me on my more personal networks (Facebook, Stalk LL, etc.), I will be marrying my high school sweetheart and longtime girlfriend on Friday in Rocky Mountain National Park. I don’t know [...]

Vote For Endagon

Shameless plug alert. My company, Endagon Enterprises, is in the running for Startup Nation’s Home Based 100 contest. I would REALLY appreciate it if you all could jump to the link listed below and provide a vote for me. If you are in a very helpful mood, you can even set your email address up [...]

Guest Post: Selecting an Office Space

It’s Monday. And that means that we have a great guest post from Debarup Mukherjee. This topic hits close to home because myself and Endagon went through a hellish period of time searching for the right office space and tolerating a beautiful space that wasn’t right for our company at the time. However, we learned [...]

Why I Refuse To Use Facebook Places

All of the power of the Internet is in the untrustworthy hands of Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook. When you are able to recruit such a mass quantity of users around the world, success is inevitable. I salute and envy Facebook for accomplishing that and helping to make the Internet more open and social. What I [...]

Therefore, I wanted to make sure I shared my thoughts on online benevolence and the immense opportunity that social media presents us with as we attempt to [...]

An iPhone App That Helps People

To ensure [...]

Guest Post: Indoor Team Building Exercises

I have been working on a trend of posting guest posts on Mondays for the past several weeks. I figured I would make this week no exception. Today we have a guest post from Bella Winterfold. The post was originally titled “Cookery Challenges To Tower of Cards: Indoor Team Building Exercises” but I felt the [...]

Losing Clients To College Students

We live in some interesting times right now. One would argue that for the first time in the history of the American economy, the younger generation has a distinct advantage over the older Executives that still “don’t get it.” If knowledge is power, then you can’t disregard the aspirations, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn that [...]

Web Hosting

If I didn’t think it was so tacky, I would have all of my websites flaunt a footer button that tells the world what hosting company I always use. Since I don’t do that, I just feel like I owe it to the company for offering stellar customer service and 99.99% up-time for over 3 [...]
