Michelle Tripp (@michelletripp) is a brand strategist really specializing in marketing and promotion of products and services. Her career started in radio and as you’ll no doubt hear due to her voice pushed her on to the air. That experience really colored how she sees marketing, promotion and sales and how refreshingly different it is from most people’s perception of those areas. Michelle and I have become fast friends over the last few weeks and that’s why I am so excited to introduce her to all the listeners of the show. Enjoy!
Michael Barber (@michaeljbarber) is one of those people in the Phoenix internet community who I wish I could get to see a little more regularly than I do. He’s incredibly smart and very experienced in the digital marketing space but don’t think that his life stops when he walks away from a keyboard. He consistently taking part in events, going to restaurants or even helping rescue a Westie or two. Michael’s a great guy and I hope you enjoy this episode as a quick introduction to him.
Tyler Ford (@tyler_ford) is one of the many people who was affected when the housing crash happened in 2007 and really took hold in 2008. Instead of feeling like a victim in that situation he and his wife, Mimi, decided to look at it as the opportunity for them to significantly change their lives. They decided to go in business for themselves but leveraged network marketing to help hedge some of their risk. In a few year’s time they’ve grown a great business for themselves that allows them to pursue their other passions in their lives. Tyler’s a great guy and someone who I look up to given all his work ethic and overall ability to make things happen. Read the rest of this entry »
Laurel Kaufman (@LaurelKaufman) is one of the great people who this show has so graciously drawn into my life. Laurel is an amazingly intelligent person who has her hands on so many great projects. The passion and execution she brings to her own company, the Los Angeles Consulting Group, or groups like Girls in Tech LA makes them significantly better. I’m extremely honored to consider Laurel a new friend and I expect she will continue to have major successes in her life. Read the rest of this entry »
Jason Sadler, @iwearyourshirt, is one of those entrepreneurs who had a simple but brilliant idea and executed on it successfully. The simple version of his business is that he wears t-shirts for a different company each day and then creates a lot of different social media content around the brand. Whether a YouTube video, a tweet, a flickr photo or a live stream session on uStream Jason talks up the brands that buy a day with a community of people that he cares about and they care about him as well.

Glass is one of those pieces of technology that I simply understood the potential usefulness of since the day it was presented to me. On this episode I get a chance to talk with Glass’ community manager Jennifer Beese, as well as two of the three co-founders, Diego Prats and Oscar Guido. As I regularly find to be the case, people with great technology tend to be great people as well. All three of these folks fall in to that category.
