You worked hard to get where you are. 3 years ago you decided you want to run a business with a friend - a translating business. This software automates localization (whoa!). In other words, it translates documents and software into any language within 95% accuracy. Pretty accurate, if you ask me.
Your friend really […]
So you’re in college and running a business out of your dorm. You created a cool new social networking site and you have over 300 users. With your ad revenue, purchasing bandwidth isn’t an issue (especially since this is the cheapest host you could get, with your bandwidth limit increasing each month). The main problem […]
I wish this was just a fabricated scenario. Here’s what happened:
-Someone SOMEHOW got my password to my Paypal account
-Someone withdrew over $3,000 from my checking/Visa account through Paypal
-I say “What the floop?” … well, I didn’t say exactly that, but I am sure you can imagine what I did say
So I IMMEDIATELY call Paypal and […]
I recently went to a social gathering and saw a guy I used to work with. We had worked on a site, published it online under everyone’s name, and planned on completing this project. Lo and behold, this guy drops out - unfortunately, he was the coder! The idea from the site came from […]
Your company’s sales have never been better ever since you went out to hire help. Frank is your go-to guy in sales. You recently hired him after you decided to expand your business. His résumé was put together incredibly well and he had a long list of references. With his charismatic approach and a […]
Sometimes it is better to leave a dangerous area… at least, that is what you’re considering after hearing about the latest crime rate in your area. You run a small general store in an area that used to be crime-free. Just yesterday you saw your neighbor’s business with a shattered window. Of course, you are […]
So I made the last “Oh Crap” 12 again because I wanted to skip over 13 (no one called me out!)… because I can be careless sometimes, too.
So you are talking to a big lead for your business, and you rely on your cell phone as your main method of communication since you are always […]
Alright, so I am obviously not using my template… and subtlety is not an option. You are running a business with about 35 employees and all of them have computers with full internet access. You would restrict them from sites if your business didn’t rely on the access of so many sites. It would […]
You see where this is going already. You partnered up with two of your friends to start a business (go figure), and you decided it would be a good idea to make a product dedicated to text messaging (hypothetically, of course). One friend really wants to create an entire piece of hardware for this. He […]
You’ve opened up a consulting firm and want to get off to a big start. Your business is your part-time job. Since you need money to live, you work part-time at a local store and get paid by the hour. Suddenly, jobs start coming in at a very steady pace. Doors are opening all around […]
