Been a long road, but I think some of my mistakes in life have been trying to do too many things at the same time. I will use this Sunday evening (liking to blog on Sunday evenings) to go through how in my lifetime, I have never really been focused on 1 thing, and maybe relate this to others also …
Bungee Jumping in China! Needed that Rush!
YOLO (you only live once) I have never been bungee jumping, and adding the extra risk of doing it in China, why not! What started as a normal Sunday afternoon, I went to a late lunch w/ Mark + YunChung and then decided it was such a nice day out to go for a walk (instead of working in the …
Trying a New Fad, Standing Desk
I have been blogging for years, from my mobile phone, typing on trains with my bluetooth keyboard, but I think this is my first blog post I typed standing up! After the Chinaccelerator 10 x 10 speaker series, one of the speakers in Beijing, Richard Robinson motivated a lot of us entrepreneurs to work STANDING UP! Richard mentioned how he …
Weibo Agent Update, Focus + Time To Do Hardcore Sales as a Startup
I’m on a mission. I’m proud of myself…what I realize is no one is going to care more about anything except yourself. You have to want it, you have to want to win. You have to have vision. I may test some relationships, but I am on a mission to build this startup and rock the Chinaccelerator at the end …
Back in Dalian, China – Exhausting, Exhilarating 10 days
Always tempted to blog (used to blog almost every day, or at least every other day) but at least for the duration of this Chinaccelerator program I am going to blog less often – so that I can focus on product development for Weibo Agent. Its a rainy, and cool Saturday morning as I type this. I slept about 12 …
Speaking on Social Media + SEO Integration in Beijing, Monday 9/17
As part of my trip to Beijing, this coming Monday Sept 17 I will speak at a Chinese SEO + SEM internet marketing conference. I have been asked to speak about how social media affects SEO, and integrating the 2 to optimize your search campaign. This will be a bit more advanced seminar, as the attendees are more experienced search …
Back to Beijing, Center of Chinese Internet 9/13 – 9/17
Back to the heart of Chinese internet, feel sometimes like a lone ranger heading to a land many dare not to enter. Beijing is home of the majority of Chinese internet companies, and in order for my latest startup Weibo Agent to succeed, I need to have stronger relationships with these companies. Many have always been questioning what I am …
Staying Focused, Staying Motivated As People, Places, Family Changes Around You
Those who have spent any time in China have heard the term “Jia You” (means “Add oil” literally, but really means, keep going, don’t give up), and I am sure those Chinese who read the title of this blog post will be saying the same thing. Joining Chinaccelerator has been the right move – fast track + structure for my …
I Love Focus! WeiboAgent covered by Tech in Asia!
I think the number 1 feedback most friends would give me is if I focused on just 1 thing, I would be able to make that a huge success. I think it was because maybe I didn’t know what I wanted to do. Maybe because I was too “young and inexperienced” and was greedy, wanting to have a bit of …
Hyper Networking in Shanghai, Spoke on Social Media at #10x10Shanghai2012
This Geeks on a train (GOAT) trip has been quite a rush! Getting back now to Dalian city of China (landed Saturday night) and spending Sunday catching up on emails, project meetings, and laundry! GOAT (Geeks on a train) has been an amazing trip with the Chinaccelerator. Didn’t even expect it when we started the program on August 1st. We …
Beijing Startup Scene, Quick 2 day overview of #GOAT
As expected, this GOAT (geeks on a train) trip has been a whirlwind – over-packed schedule of events and meetings. We arrived to Beijing Friday morning, about 8am after an 11 hour overnight sleeper train from Dalian. A group of over 20 entrepreneurs, we entered the Chinese capital city of Beijing with wide eyes ready to take on the world! …
Heading to Beijing + Shanghai, Geeks on a Train! #GOAT Aug 16 – 25
Trying the weekly blog post while I’m working like a madman in the Chinaccelerator. Sunday evening in the office, preparing for the week ahead. Have a few days here in Dalian, China and then we are going on “Geeks on a train!” What is geeks on a train? Geeks on a train is the Chinese version “Geeks on a plane”, …
Blogging from “inside the dungeon”, Recap First week at China Accelerator
Have had my head down and been working like a maniac this week. Exciting, and maybe upsetting some people who seem to have been used to me doing free events – but I have no regrets at all for enrolling in this startup incubator! The value only a few days in has been amazing. My assistant Amy, and some others …
Quick IT huddle in Hong Kong before heading to Dalian
Life, as always, is moving so quickly. Building up an IT team and plan for Weibo agent at the China accelerator that starts this Wednesday in Dalian, China. Some of the team is not yet ready to come to Dalian for the first stage, so we all got together this weekend in Hong Kong. Jimmy flew in from Singapore to …
Going to be Incubated! @WeiboAgent is in next class at @Chinaccelerator
The road has been totally unpredictable. As I live out of my suitcase bouncing around USA and China, startup weekends, consulting, networking – I try to make the most of every situation I’m given. And of course be creative. Its almost like a character from the X-Men movie, somehow feeling like a strange mutant floating around in a world where …
