Nothing gets an investor’s heart racing like the phrase “software margins.” It’s shorthand for the concept than businesses which are primarily bits (not atoms) have some very attractive characteristics: fixed development costs, economies of scale in deployment & servicing, and “winner take most” markets with pricing power.

One of the lessons I have learned over the years as a business executive, and now as a mentor to entrepreneurs, is that if you really want employees who enthusiastically take ownership of their work, you have to start treating them like owners, not renters. Owners feel they have skin in the game, and benefit from improved effort and results, rather than just getting blamed for problems.

Getting paid to travel — sounds like the life, right? What if we told you it was possible? Working as a digital nomad has become a popular thing among many young individuals due to social media. If you go on Instagram today versus a year ago you will see more people sharing photos of their incredible journeys around the world rather than their everyday lives.

Scandinavia is annoyingly perfect from the outside. They’re the happiest people on earth, they have universal healthcare, free education and paid parental leave. And now they have one of the most successful startup ecosystems in the world. Things are certainly good up north. But every paradise has its snake. The weird thing about this success is that Scandinavian people, in fact, hate success – this is called the Jantelaw.
Speaker: Nick Noreña, Innovation Coach and Advisor, Kromatic

In this webinar, Nick Noreña will walk through an Innovation Ecosystem Model that he and his team at Kromatic have developed to help investors, heads of product, teachers, and executives understand how they can best support innovation in

We (the tech industry) like to label everything. I attribute the source of this desire and need to Regis McKenna although he may have just been the genius that amplified it. The labels I dealt with early in my professional career (the 1980s) included micro computers, mini-computers, artificial intelligence, expert systems, neural networks, middleware, super computers, parallel computing, and killer app.

Few things are more important to an e-commerce site than convenience. When people shop online, they want the transaction to be seamless and easy, especially when it comes to payment. Having a complicated check-out process can do more than just make your business look unprofessional; it can cost you sales. Before you get started with your next big bundle deal or social media campaign, make sure your checkout is working smoothly.

Music can change your spirit. If you’re having a bad day and listen to your favorite song, it can change your entire mood. Music can also help you to get through difficult moments in life. One of the hardest things anyone can ever do is start and run a business. We knew that entrepreneurs have the best playlists and we decided to ask them their favourite tracks. #1- Can’t Nobody Hold Me Down by Puff Daddy.

In recent year’s a new crop of entrepreneur/freelancer/coaches have risen off the back of social media channels like Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat. These people use the tools to distribute their knowledge and thus attract clients. You share some pictures, write short updates, do live videos, and eventually, a few people.

Americans are in love with the Internet. Recently, the Pew Research Center revealed that 8-in-10 Americans shop online. And 9-in-10 Americans are online in some form. Today’s youth doesn’t know a world without the internet; and, even senior citizens are adopting technology at higher rates than ever before. (Pew research shows that 67% of seniors are active online and 42% own smartphones.).

I took a look at what we invested in in 2017 and thought I’d share some surprising / not surprising findings. I realize that investors are often a black box, where it’s hard to understand what they prefer and what their biases are. Hopefully by sharing some of these stats it will help illuminate what we care about. Note: these stats are based off first checks we did in 2017 under Hustle Fund – I did not include follow-on checks. 1) We invested in many places but not in en

My goal in 2018 is to read 52 books. Here is a list of all the books I’ve read so far this year. Each book is ranked on a 5-star scale (5 is best). ** The Trap of Success. Full disclosure: The Trap of Success was written by my friend, Gene Hammett. And, it includes a bonus chapter on the nonprofit I co-founded four years ago, 48in48. Based on this, you might think I’d be predisposed to give him a great review, but actually my feeling was the opposite.

Hi folks! I’m starting a new vlog / YouTube show called – The Pe:p Show. (As my name is actually pronounced like pep talk, not peep show). It’s a series of short and to the point videos: all between 1 and 9 minutes. Topics that I’m covering go way past conversion stuff – it’s about optimizing all the things: your life, health, relationships, work and business.
