Theodore Roosevelt said, “The single most important ingredient of success is knowing how to get along with people.”

Weekly Quote #6

Another week, another quote! And another one from an advertising legend, and don’t be imaging the Mad Men era, it was way before that! He started off as a copywriter for J. Walter Thompson in 1912. He was also a great educator, working for the Chicago Business school between 1931-39. And publishing books, including A Technique for Producing Ideas . Which I’ve read and would really recommend!

There is no sure fire way to get ideas, but it’s full of advice which might help! I really like this quote, you can’t create something out of nothing, but you can take things that are already understood and do something new and clever with them. Interestingly my final lecture of the year on Thursday was from someone at the head of an advertising company, and he had lots to say about ideas. But I’ll post about that next week…

Brain Pickings posted a lot of information about the James Webb Young book, so look here for more details.

Crowdfunding Sites Cropping Up - BI

Tue, 03 Apr 2012 14:51:46 -0600

Crowdfunding Sites Cropping Up - BI:

All told, we know of seven sites to help you raise seed money online:

Crowdfunder: A new site in beta that will take advantage of the new law. Although it’s not open for business yet, its founders claim it has 1,121 investors ready to spend $15.44 million on projects. It says 1,055 companies already lined up to grab those funds.
Wefunder — Another new crowdfunding site in beta. It claims the site already has 3,649 funders who will invest $8,972,400 in startups.
Funding Launch Pad: This site, also in beta, has a different angle. It will be geared towards Colorado companies. Boulder, CO, has become a regional hotspot for startups, so why not a crowdfunding site that focuses on them?
Rock The Post: A free network that helps entrepreneurs meet professionals and investors who can help turn their ideas into successful projects by offering funds, time or materials. (Named among The Hottest 10 Startups To Watch In NYC This Year)
Indiegogo: This site specializes in creative ventures, like movies, music, theater, fashion, even sports. But its got its share of products and tech, too.
AngelList: This site doesn’t do the actual crowdfunding, but it helps a startup get discovered by angel investors. Hopefuls post info about their company and the angels call them.
Kickstarter: The granddaddy of crowdfunding sites. So far in 2012, two projects have raised over $1 million on Kickstarter. Several others have surpassed $250,000.
