This is part 2 of “A Tale of Mind Petals.” Jump to part 1 to catch up if you haven’t already.
So after doing some pretty intense research and brainstorming for quite some time, I then began to talk with various young entrepreneurs – you know, just shooting around ideas and such.
I wanted to know if this was something that entrepreneurs such as myself would want to be a part of. So I started asking around and received some great positive feedback. But to tell you the truth, I was (and still am) so passionate about creating the network, that I would have went ahead and done it regardless of the encouragement.
That’s just how I am. If I have a gut feeling about something, at the end of the day I’m always, always going to trust myself first and just do it. If I am wrong, then I am wrong and I just keep at it. Simple as that.
After some time of talking with some sharp minds, I started to write. I just began unloading all of my ideas for the network on paper. For a few weeks, I simply just wrote ideas, content, whatever and sketched design ideas. I wanted the design to be crazy!
Things started coming together and history was being made. Started scoping out blogs that I thought would make great fits for the network and made sure that they were a part of the founding members when the network launched.
Around this time, I contacted my good friend Dan who offered a tremendous amount of support when I was deep into the project. Dan brought good ideas to the table and eventually came on the Advisory Board along with Matt and Jason. Great bunch of smart guys!
Now it’s around late May and the network is well into production. Matt’s banging out some sick designs and we’re working on painting a masterpiece. My concept was all about growth and prosperity, so the flowers, grass, and bright colors was just what I had in mind to really project this vision. It’s Spring time on the network, 24/7. The growing never stops!
Stay tuned for part 3………
