Five Million, Five Years - That Could Be You

Admittedly, I’m a business Geek…and I enjoy Danny Deutsch “The Big Idea” show.  I believe in the dream of working hard, following your passion and success will follow.  Well tonight he featured “Five Million in Five Years”, with a variety of successful entrepreneurs from syrup to underwear to shoes. 

At the end of the show, he does a summary, where each guest gives their last minute nuggets of advice.  My favorite tips were:

1.       Use Freelancers, who are experts in their fields and can help you see things from a different point of view.

2.       Focus on PR, “because when people see it written in a magazine they believe it to be true.”

Good advice I say, being a consulting group that helps startup technology companies with strategic messaging, marketing and PR.  Check out these entrepreneurs, you may find a bit of inspiration in their stories.  (http://www.cnbc.com/id/20968948)
