Reading Time: 10 minutesI never knew how exhausting giving 3 different versions of a pitch in 4 days would be. What should be cut from the longer version to give a full picture of the company in a shorter version? What do you have to keep in the 90 second elevator pitch? What do you do when you … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 7 minutesA couple of months ago when I was putting together a blog post, I had mentioned that there was a lot coming up on the calendar in the spring. Well, spring is here, surreal as it seems. I’m only a couple of days away from starting the Sexy Life Pitch Tour, with stops in Iowa … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 5 minutesWe’ve set the clocks ahead an hour for Daylight Savings and winter changes to spring next weekend, but winter sure decided to give us one last punch in the gut this past Sunday. In the Oasis, we lucked out an only got about 2 or 3 inches – we may have had more, but winds … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 6 minutesI thought that the middle of winter was supposed to be the time of year when you hibernate and things slow down, recovering from the festivities in December.

I love attending Startup Weekends and I really enjoy spending an entire weekend building something from idea into an actual, possibly viable business. Add in working with a brand new team of … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 7 minutesIt’s hard to believe how quickly the last three months have flown by in the Iowa Startup Accelerator. November 3 was ISA Launch Day, and this year’s cohort did a tremendous job presenting and summarizing what they’ve been working on over the course of 94 days. I popped in to work on QuickScore the day before … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 7 minutesSeriously, what happens to the time? It seems like the last couple of weeks have been a complete blur. My older daughter is nearly two months into pre-kindergarten. My younger daughter has gone from just learning to crawl to nearly walking. My wife has only two weeks of residency left. And, I’ve nearly finished all … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 10 minutesAs The Pause came to a close, it was time to reconnect QuickScore with the rest of the cohort from the Iowa Startup Accelerator. So, what better way to reconnect with everyone than to go to a giant party for startup founders in a warehouse at the base of the Rocky Mountains? Honestly, I can’t think … [Read more…]
