Kicked Out of iTunes for 24 Hours, Here's What I Learned
I’ve had a podcast called the Create Your Own Life Show since November of 2015.

How to Have Gratitude In Spite of Your Surroundings
In the last 10 years, Romania has the second highest rate of emigration after Syria, according to Business Review. The UN International Migration report conducted from 2007-2015, shows that 3.4 million Romanians have left the country in the last ten years. After the fall of communism, the country was left to pick up the pieces, learning from a system that did not know a way of operating other than how it had in the Soviet Era.
This Trio of Printers Use Ink, Not Cartridges
The folks at Epson revolutionized the desktop printing industry a couple of years ago when they introduced their EcoTank printers. Well, it seems the original printers mated and have spawned seven offspring. three of which we had a chance to play with. Of course they all boast similar basic features, but there are a few distinct differences.
How the Individualization of the Human Genome Will Disrupt the Entire Biotech Space
We live in such an amazing world with so much more opportunity than that of earlier generations. Despite what some people like to say, the rise of technology has allowed for innovation that’s changing our lives for the better. Technology does remove the need for some career, but is actually a shift that creates new ones. Recently, I got to travel up to Boston for HUBweek, a conference geared towards innovation and new technology.
3 Proven Questions That Will Unleash the Magic in Your Brand
“Why should anyone give a damn about your brand?” Brand expert David Brier has made that statement to me on many occasions. I think that’s how it is for many of us in the startup world: we need to keep hearing things till it really gets through to us. We too rarely look at our brands from the standpoint that we need to in order to not only survive but excel. This results in many entrepreneurs needing a bit of “Brand Intervention.” The first step for many of us is to recognize it.
The Top Entrepreneur Podcasts to Follow in 2018
Being a podcast host is a unique way to experience the podcast space, especially when you’re a podcast super fan, like myself. Though I’d like to include my own podcast with over 300 episodes, Create Your Own Life, I feel like it’s cheating; don’t put yourself on your own list. I wanted to put together the ultimate list of shows that I turn to when I need to scratch my entrepreneurial itch.
Breaking down the Blockchain: Understanding the Future of Cryptocurrency and Finance
If you have heard all these terms that have to do with new currencies, cryptocurrencies, digital money of any sort, well, it’s the wave of the future. For many of us, we have no idea what the basic terms of this new world of money are all about. Don’t feel bad if it’s been a challenge for you, because for me, I feel like there’s so many terms having to do with all this stuff I just didn’t understand at all.
How to Create a Business Podcast
To market yourself and your brand correctly on a podcast there are three core elements that you should really have down cold: your story, your message, and your call-to-action. According to Edison Research and marketer, Jay Baer, 43 Million people, about 15% of Americans, listen to podcasts on a weekly basis weekly. To put it in perspective, only 3% of Americans go to movies in a given week. Podcasts are on the rise to say the least, growing consistently 105% since 2016.
The Unusual Method I've Used to Generate Valuable Content
Have you ever noticed that most articles have a similar format? I’ve read many, many articles, and interestingly enough, though different in content, many follow a very similar format. It looks sort of like this: 1-2 opening paragraphs, 3-5 solid points, followed by 1-2 paragraph closing. It’s a format that reads well, and it lends itself to people like myself who do not fancy themselves writers. Most of them end up being somewhere from 600-800 words.
Social Media is My Secret to Podcast Success
ShareTweetPinterest It’s impossible to go from the little guy to a star in this modern world without a social following it just cannot happen anymore at this point and time. Social media has always been a strength of mine but I would never consider myself to be an expert. On November 20th, 2015, I launched a podcast Podcast called Create Your Own Life; this article is not going to be directly about that, I’ll cover it in a later article.
How Self Publishing Can Create a Solid Brand
It's a big question in the business space: Is it better to self-publish a book or pitch it to a big publisher? It comes back to why you're publishing a book in the first place. And with self publishing becoming easier than ever, Amazon has become loaded with best-sellers. Books published in 2016 only have about a 1 percent chance of ever seeing the shelves of a bookstore, begging the question: Why publish at all? Well, that’s the wrong question.

What Does it Take to Succeed as a Woman in Business?
With high-powered women out there like Oprah and Sheryl Sandberg, it’s quite obvious that the glass ceiling has shattered. However, looking at the list of CEO’s in the S&P 500, only 4.4% of CEO positions are held by women. Frankly, that number is shocking, and it made me look at the modern business landscape a whole lot differently. As a podcaster, I have done over 200 interviews, but with my new viewpoint, I checked my back catalogue and found that I have interviewed only 24 women.
Why Most Mobile Apps Fail and How to Avoid the Same Fate
Just like many others in the online space, entrepreneurs are jumping into the mobile apps space with the idea of making large profits. They see companies such as Snapchat and Facebook and await their payday, using movies like “The Social Network” as their case study. The truth of the matter comes down not just to the wrong viewpoint in starting out, but also in the totally incorrect marketing of their product.
How the Podcast is Changing Advertising
The press tour has changed, it’s just a point of reality. The current trend may be something that will stick around for quite some time. The podcast has become the modern equivalent of the press tour, and one with much better ROI, due to host’s connection and influence with the listener. The podcast is the ultimate in user experience because it can be listened to at the leisure of the user.
The Important Thing Most Podcasts are Missing
“Please,Please for the Love of God Do Not Start a Podcast,” writes Ryan Holiday, citing Jordan Harbinger founder of the Art of Charm podcast, about why most entrepreneurs should be swayed from not starting a podcast. Based on the supporting data, Harbinger has a very valid point. Podcasts are an excellent marketing tool that can help businesses reach many new customers that otherwise would have no clue they exist, but most of them are doing it wrong and for the wrong reasons.
How Not Smoking May Harm Your Mental Health
It was a beautiful San Diego day. I was doing something that back home in New Jersey I never get to do: sitting with my wife in a street side cafe eating breakfast. Just as one of the largest strips of bacon I have even seen was laid before me, I noticed two gentlemen sitting across from us, and it sounded like they were speaking German. They were chatting with computers in front of them, and though I don’t speak German, I imagine it had to do with business.
What Your Success Formula is Missing
I’ve learned a lot in my time as an entrepreneur. It’s been more of a journey than expected and my life experience has brought me here with a different perspective than many. Coming from a mainly academic background and being more of an analytical mind, I believed you examine the data, put in enough to get the goal and you quickly reach it.
Why Social Media is Not Hands Off for Business Owners
Social media isn’t going anywhere and for many of us, myself included, large parts of our careers are now based off being on many online platforms. It can create networking opportunities and brand growth that a generation ago could never be imagined, but there is still an issue in the way that many view it. Business owners have finally realized they can’t avoid it, but still do not have the slightest clue on what to do with it.
