The AH-HA Moment Has Not Gone Away..It's Has Become Stronger.

Inspiration can come at a moments notice with a movie , an individual, a song, and the right place at the right time. Have you been in a certain situation were a good idea about a service or a product comes into play? We all have had that moment but the truth of it is only 3% act on it and others just go on with their lives. For those 97% you might have just wasted a huge opportunity and maybe a couple of years down the road where someone else comes up with your idea, you usually say " I thought of that idea three years ago!" Guess what...who cares..you didn't follow through.. What stops a person from following their dreams? Usually other people. The people that say "it's a stupid idea" or "if it is such a good idea why isn't anyone else doing it?!" When certain people hear that from family or friends their spark fizzles and the dream is over.. However the 3% they don't listen to that usually follow through with their plan. When they s...

If you have some to say..write about it!

    The one thing that amazes me is that there is so much talent out there and people have so much to say which is beneficial to many..however the zipper has not removed from their lips.  My question to that is WHY?!  Does it come down to confidence, self awareness, or just being lazy?  I don't know honestly. However my suggestion to you is that if you believe in your inner monologue that you have  something to say that would benefit someone else...well what are you waiting for?! Start today.        The truth is, there is so many tools out there in the form of blog and podcast platforms you can create to get your message across and most of them are free!  If you want to start a blog you can use Blogger or Wordpress or if you want to start your podcast use Anchor which requires no equipment just your cell phone.  Sounds great right?! This is the point where you get excited and the adrenaline starts to pump...then ou...

When you decide to make a “Switch”

Image
Life is not a cemented thing where you must choose your position during your time here on the planet and stay put. You can move and make new decisions that will give you new journeys to experience. That is something a lot of people do not really understand that they have that freedom. For the most part it is based on fear.. of the unknown and what people will think of them. My advice…Screw What People Think! Just go do what you like and be happy, how hard is that?! Mind you I’m not saying drop what you are doing and go start a new life..do it gradually step by step until the transition is complete. Abrupt sudden moves do not really work out for the best. You need to be pre-pared and attack it head on but one step at a time. Quite honestly I constantly think of my next switch all of the time. I consider it to be the second chapter of my life. Second chapter you may say.. yep, I have always viewed life as two chapters. First chapter is the day you are born until you hit 49 years of ...

Choosing Our New Cashunt Cities Carefully…

Image
One of the coolest parts of our business is to find new locations for our product that will bring a new game element / theme to the new city that is chosen….but we are picky. A lot of businesses..want to grow rapidly which is fantastic…but that is not our method..I believe rapid growth tarnishes the novelty of the product. For us when we pick a new city it might take a year even two, but it has to fit the criteria. The “criteria” being location, working with the right people, how we can develop our game and have it reinvent itself every year, etc…which we will keep to ourselves. ;) In 18 Years of Cashunt the one thing we are proud of is our reputation..and how that reflects is via the constant repeat clients as well as the fresh faces we see year after year. Building a business is definitely not as easy as people would imagine, just like any other business it takes alot of what many people see as a treaded word..”Work” ;) Once that is achieved and you can sacrifice a few th...

step by step by step..we approach beautiful lands

    As some of you that have been following us for the past 17 years as a business you may know we are very strategic and if so picky as to where and when the next Cashunt location may be.  I really do not believe that more and more is great...because at times it stains itself.  I have always loved the independent rebel spirit of business and sometime less and more effective is indeed more.  A lot has come across the table as of recently, however I don't accept anything until we feel that we are ready...which brings me to the next step..brining this international.           The only thing I can reveal is that we have been to bring the Cashunt experience to their area..and after researching the "bleep" out of this particular location I think we are ready to make that move by 2018.  When it comes to this game of entrepreneurship I have been in it for a long time way before it became a "sexy" term..but the best way to get ahead is ...

Always seek out a mentor..and learn.

    When I was started out with this crazy idea that we call "Cashunt", I really tried to seek out as much research as I could about "games".    I was really influenced and inspired by cultural aspects of art..film, music, comics, classic games, noir, and theater and put them all together into one product. But sometimes that wasn't enough..so I seeked out a little guidance to make sure I was pointed to the right direction.         So I seeked out people that inspired me in the past, that I would call unbiased and that I call my friends / mentors today. People like Patricia Manning my old marketing/advertising professor, Philip Sabratta my theater professor, and Angela Peri.  Each one different from the other but each one being upfront and honest about the creative direction I was taking.  These lessons they gave me hold true today and will continue to do so..       With that said if you are looking to make a "change" in yo...
