B.A.R.D.

The future is going to be insane. I started thinking, is education going to be basically worthless when all of the information in the world is at anyone's fingertips? I've been thinking about this a lot lately because I have been using Google Bard, which you can ask anything and it will come back with a pretty good answer. I don't know if I was selected or if it is available to everyone right now. But it has been crazy.

LOL

Just lol'ed because the news was on in the background and they're talking about big layoffs in the tech industry. The "tech" industry. What a joke. Live a real life, people.

Idea - Facebook improvement

Gamification.

Zuck needs to incorporate little elements of gamification into Facebook. Everybody likes video games, in a way, so like make it more profitable for me to spend more time on Facebook. He's overlooking this or something.

Other Facebook improvement ideas: 1. Power Pages. I don't know what this means any more but I wrote it down a while ago and it sounds good, so build on it. Like you pay more to get more guaranteed hits or some shit, I dunno.

Idea

"Hey, Google." to my laptop to quickly Google something. Why is that not possible? LMK

Day One

OK, Blog. Let's go. So I've been thinking that there's a huge gap in the social-media and music world and I've been writing on Facebook about it, which I probably shouldn't in case this proprietary idea becomes something. But here we go. 

Like this is how it started.
I posted on Facebook: "Spotify sucks. I'm sitting here thinking: We need a social network where I can check out what my friends are listening to. Someone create it and then cut me in on a lil bit" - "Like how come I can't live-listen to what 'friend A' is listening to?" - "Or you can play your own jams and have people listen - live. DJ-like." - "I want it called Identitunes." 

Does it exist and I'm just not up-to-speed? Is Spotify capable of that shit? If it is, it isn't clear to me. Seems lame.

Like a social network but built off iTunes. Or Spotify. Or all of the above. Or whatever.

Ain't no time for Trix

Trix Minis cereal is so good. I'm eating it ri now.

Update (curr. 10/1/23) : Actually I never ended up really liking this cereal. Each piece is too small.

So Stoked!

Update: (Now April 16, 2023) - It was pretty good but I didn't find myself drinking a lot of it. It was slightly sweeter than Dr. Pepper; that's probably why.

Hi-larious

I'm epically hilarious. I just posted this on Facebook.

"Dude it's hilarious, my playlist right now (jamming out in my room), is Free Fallin', to Take Me Home Tonight, to Hot Blooded, to more Foreigner. I think my iTunes wants me to have a party in my room. Who's bringing the durgs"

Cheque-InN

Ok so, checking in. I've been in communication with my website designer and we are currently building moobrands.biz. Other than that I've already got products and product pics I just need to get them from my hard drives which are located in LA and I'm currently in SLC. HmM......

V

Sort of overwhelming right now. Don't know what exactly to work on next. However, I have come to the conclusion that it's going to be budgets. Some projections like Operations, Production, Marketing, and Start-up. We shall see.

Step 4

Another step, I guess the next step, is creating social media accounts.

Facebook (Account) - Check.
Twitter (@MooBrands85) - Check.
Instagram (@MooBrands85) - Check.
E-commerce-enabled Site (MooBrands.BigCartel.com) - Check.
Facebook (Page) - Check

To-Do:

1. Add friends on social media sites - Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Step Three

That leads me to something else which needs to be done - Sales revenue forecasts

Starting a Brand / Step Two

So now I am working on making a logo, and laying out what needs to be done. For instance I will need a website. (I've already set up social media accounts.) Before I move forward at all, I will draw up analyses of what my costs will be like. Website - Graphic designs/ers - Raw Materials like t-shirts - Screenprinting - Supplementary Costs like Marketing and Packaging and Shipping.

Starting a Brand // Part One, Chapter One

OK so I'm not saying I'm a pro or anything, but I have started a couple of projects/brands and have learned a lot from my experiences. Now I'm working on starting another brand, and I figure it will be extremely helpful to others to document my experiences. I can thank Alcoholics Anonymous and various other behavior training camps, essentially, that I attended, for my desire and willingness to be helpful to others. My experiences at these various institutions have helped mold me into being willing to help others and in so doing, help myself as well. So, essentially, I will begin documenting my process towards starting a business, and I will share the information with you all. Thank you for reading my blog.
