    I got a little press today

    EXECUTION 
    Well it's still moving on through the twittersphere. I had 160 downloads Monday and Tuesday when the article was posted by all different agencies. Currently going through the list and making calls, getting info sent out, and have a demo setup at a massive hospital in Kansas City. Things are...

    I got a little press today

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks guys, I got up to 1500 post views and was just shared by the largest EMS outlet with 15k followers on twitter. That might not seem like a lot but for the EMS community that's a pretty big chunk. I got a demo from a lady that saw it and is the director over 4 Emergency Rooms, and a ton...

Overall I hit the front page of the Broomfield Enterprise and in print in the Daily Camera(City of Boulder), Colorado Daily(the rest of Boulder County), and the Denver Post(Denver Metro area). With my...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Well the forum is up and running! I spent a few days looking at the categories and threads to get the ball rolling. Should be interesting to see this pan out. For any initial thoughts and feedback the site is thedigitalhealthforum.com Mike

    I'm building a forum

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Hi guys, I've had a great start to 2016 and have some seriously good things in the works. As I am clearly crazy, I am putting together a forum that is specific to my space. This space is packed with happenings and companies all over. I am ultimately aiming to start the forum more for local use...

    Medical app for paramedics

    EXECUTION 
    It's a metrics thing. I'm bringing a new technology to market and continuing to validate the metrics and how to track the impact. Overall there has been much more value in the registration side of the ER versus the clinical side.

    Medical app for paramedics

    EXECUTION 
    Hey... See that post right there? Yeah the one directly above this. Hospital 1 might be backing out due to minimal support from the clinical side of the ER. Hospital 2 is still interested, but not as motivated since hospital 1 is hesitant. Hoping those eggs just need a little more time to warm...

    Secrets from the not-so secret Pitch Club

    MINDSET 
    Check out the 1 million cups meetup. Pretty much a pitch/QA session for practice and business guidance. I did it in April and it was a lot of fun. Really laid back feel an everyone was incredibly excited to be there.

    Successfully navigated the most comon reason for a start-up to fail.

    PEOPLE 
    Exactly. And that's why I had about two months of incredibly slow progression and non-stop anxiety. Having equity tied to specific milestones and/or hours spent on the business are all great ways to avoid some of these situations. I'm still entertaining the idea of starting other businesses...

    Successfully navigated the most comon reason for a start-up to fail.

    PEOPLE 
    That agreement is exactly what we failed to have materialize. I'd say spending the money on a proper attorney up front is a great way to prevent this BS from happening down the road. I'm planning on having more businesses down the road and I'm 99% set on not having any partners. I'd also never...

    Can these online consulting sites patent my idea?

    IDEA 
    They charge you $150. They spend $1,000 to file. I'm sure I'm missing something, but in general if I said I could develop an app for you for $99 bucks would that instill much confidence in me? Patents and the process are incredibly expensive. I'm starting the process now with my product and...

    Can these online consulting sites patent my idea?

    IDEA 
    No way in hell I'd pay $150 for someone to "patent" my idea. I met with a patent attorney Friday for over 2 hours to just get the ball rolling. He writes the patent and I mortgage it from him over time. He ends up fronting about 4k just to get to the submission stage not including the time/labor...

    Successfully navigated the most comon reason for a start-up to fail.

    PEOPLE 
    Hi guys, I haven't been on here a whole lot due to business starting to pick up and free time dwindling. I wanted to share something from my experience over the last year and a half with a "bad apple" partner and potentially some ways to avoid making the same mistake as mine. Long story...

    Opinions Needed: Can a SaaS startup survive without Investment?

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    I'm 18 months into a SaaS model product and I have given away ZERO equity for investment. I also have a fully functional product that I sell to hospitals. I'm not even entertaining the idea of investment money after hearing quite a bit of horror stories from other CEO's. You can totally grow...
