Great advice for entrepreneurs from two billionaires

by

Today, I’m sharing two videos that I find inspiring. As entrepreneurs pressure and taking risks are what define us and Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki and Michael Dell are great examples for us to follow.

“If you can’t handle pressure you can’t make it as an entrepreneur. ” We entrepreneurs are a different breed, we thrive on pressure and in many ways are like the great players in sports. When the pressure is on we “want the ball.” We thrive in situations that others falter.

Great advice for entrepreneur’s from Michael Dell “Be Willing to experiment and fail.” As an entrpreneur I couldn’t agree more strongly, you don’t hit home runs without some strikouts.  Dell has taken some big swings in the past and most of the time he’s ended up on top.

Great Twitter Stories

Recapping some of my favorite Twitters tories from the week starting witha great post from the always informative Chris Brogan. While some will argue with Chris’ take on Twitter etiquette, I think he nails it on alomst every point. Check it out and let me know what you think:

A Brief and Informal Twitter Etiquette Guide

I love Twitter. I think the service is a wonderful tool that permits a whole new way of communicating. The thing is, it’s also a place where newcomers might often make some mistakes in their choices that will likely be …

I found this post interesting because I’ve been speaking in front of a number of local business groups an the most common question is “Isn’t Facebook/Twitter/Social Networking just for kids?”  They are always surprised to find out the demographics of the main sites and the dramatic increase in 35+ on Facebook an Twitter.

Facebook and Twitter are for oldies — NevilleHobson.com

If you pay attention to such metrics as have been published over the past year, it probably won’t surprise you to note that the older you are, the more likely you will be to be a Facebook or Twitter user, according to the study. …

I like this idea, but feel it will have limited application for me and the others in less populated states like Montana.

FaceBook Vanity URLs — Are you Getting Yours?

by

I was going to write up about this, but Mari’s post here is great:

Here are a couple of reasons to want a vanity URL:

1. It makes it easier for people to find you and if you have a common name like “John Smith” you will want to jump on it early.

2. It’s easier to add to a business card — many of us have been adding our Twitter ids, now we can add our facebook profiles as well.

3. Fan Pages will be powerful for businesses, especially businesses that use their keywords in their name. — You have to have an existing fan page to be able to access this right now.

What are your thoughts?
