Hey Jordan, I think it's an interesting idea. A lot can be learned from throwing someone into a business and watching them tread water. Factor77.com is going to be the place to learn business lessons from experts.... it's going to be a balance of...

In my honest opinion, entrepreneurship can not be taught from a textbook. I am a huge proponent of discovery learning and letting students find out for themselves what it's like to run a business. Dive right in, and learn as we go. No bolded words...

Is Your ‘Business’ a Business or Hobby?

I chose not to run off to white sandy beaches for spring break, so I went home to Vermont to work on what I thought was my business. I had this realization after a meeting with two SCORE counselors. SCORE is a group of retired business people that reside in federal offices, as a division of the Small Business Administration. They provide free and confidential help on individual businesses for as long as you would like. During my meeting, I was asked by one of the counselors how long I worked on… Continue

Rebranding in a Tough Economy

My company just launched a new website last week for the simple purpose of re-branding ourselves. I sat at my desk over break contemplating what Eddie's Energy Bars really was. I felt that we were always this kind of mismatched company that did not have a single message. It was all kinds of messages. So what did I do? I pulled together all of the feedback and testimonials that we had gotten over the years and looked through them to find three things that our customers loved about our energy bars… Continue

I was recently featured on the Entrepreneur's Breakfast Blog in the "Interview with an Entrepreneur". This blog is a copywriting and marketing blog that I frequently read and know Dina personally.

The interview goes into my thoughts as a business person, and the life I run being a college student and small business owner.

Check out the interview here.

I'm launching in a couple of weeks so I really hope Joomla will give me everything I want :)!

I was looking to feature them on my site. If you were interested I could post some information about them on my site and if they wanted to buy your product, I could refer them to your website where they can make the purchase there. FCBodySolutions.com is sort of a referal website. Im involved with affiliate programs. So technically I dont sell anything directly on my site. I just want to provide and give information about the best products and resources that have to do with fitness, health and nutrition.

Thanks and Looking forward to hearing from you,
Mat

Hi Mike, I don't know if we formally met but I am also involved with Bryant CEO. I have seen you at some of the meetings. Anyway, I heard about your energy bar products and I think you have an awesome business. I wanted to tell you that. Great how you started it in high school.

Anyway, I have just started a health, fitness and nutrition website. (fcbodysolutions.com) I was wondering if you wanted to feature your product on my site. Check out the site. Let me know what you think. I still have a lot of stuff to add to the site. I just put it on the web, and currently I dont have any nutritional products. Basically my site is a website designed to inform and provide resources regarding fitness, health and nutrition. At very least we could even exchange links to each others websites. Looking forward to hearing from you.
