Conquering Fear: The Rise of the Underdog

by The Crew on March 9, 2010

Screen shot 2010-03-09 at 10.36.14 AMIf you’ve ever done anything challenging (i.e. anything worthwhile), then you’ve most certainly reached a moment in time where you wanted nothing more than to scrap the whole idea. Maybe it was the time you were training for a marathon. Or taking a class a bit over your head. Or – starting a company.

You know the deal: the software wasn’t delivered on time, a vendor flaked, or maybe the revenue isn’t exactly where it should be.That’s where American Underdog comes in. These guys are the one resource every entrepreneur needs when things look a little bleak. They remind you that even the most successful entrepreneurs, at some point, felt they were out matched. The solution? Remind you of your own brilliance and refuel you with the two main ingredients needed for success: inspiration and knowledge.

Check out their site and maybe even register to win the new Apple iPad. And, if that’s not enough, come hang with the peeps from American Underdog personally at Schmoozd and hear their inspirational stories and advice first hand. They want to talk it up.

So if you haven’t done it already – get your tix today. They’re going fast.

And don’t forget! Media Temple (mt) is buying the first round. How’s that for inspiration?

Open Bar at The Upcoming Schmoozd Event!

by The Crew on March 3, 2010

When you think of (mt) MediaTemple, you think of rock solid servers and the best site hosting around. That’s a given. But what you probably don’t think much about is the kind of hosting and serving that can really make a difference: FREE DRINKS, courtesy of you know who.

That’s right, you heard it here first. (mt) MediaTemple is buying the first few rounds at the upcoming Schmoozd event on March 25th at the Wokcano in Santa Monica. That means you can order a beer. A Between the Sheets. A Long Island Iced Tea. Hey, maybe even a Schmoozd Martini. You can go way big and hang with some of the smartest peeps in LA without breaking the bank. Sounds like heaven to us.

So come early, and get the first few rounds on (mt) MediaTemple.

And in case you forgot: For over a decade, (mt) MediaTemple has provided businesses worldwide with reliable, professional-class network environments to host websites, email, business applications, and other rich media content. They’re a totally friendly group of “technology agnostic” engineers, support professionals, and business developers who have your business top of mind (hey, they’re buying the drinks, aren’t they?!). In a word, WORD!

So don’t wait until this event sells out. Tickets are limited. Order today and have a few on (mt) MediaTemple!

BIG THANKS to Lilly and the awesome team at (mt) MediaTemple.  WOOT!
