Erik Hanberg


There was many things I took from Eric Hanbergs talk but web marketing was one of the biggest thing I took from Eric. His ability to release something and market it before he even made the product was amazing. He experimented by putting out a book that he had not even written yet, I thought this was a brilliant marketing tactic because he was able to establish his audience and demand. Eric Hanberg is the “gig entrepreneur” and it really fascinated me how he took on so many different things at once. At one point he’s at a theatre and at another point he is at a talk show and then he’s writing his book. He’s doing so many things at once while I’m over here trying my best to focus on one topic. I believe this is a great skill to have a “jack of all trades” but it definitely isn’t something that you are born with. It seems like this is a skill you can adopt if you focus and put in the time and effort. One question I had for Eric that didn’t get answered is how did you deal with relationship in the stage of finding work and making money? I think that one thing that really gets in the way for us young men is women, we are always chasing them while still trying to pursue our dreams and goals. At the end of the day Eric taught me that anything can be done if you put your mind to it.

Assets

Protecting your assets is extremely important. It might be one of the most important things in your business. An asset is any resource claimed by the business. Anything substantial that can be possessed or controlled to create cash and that is held by an organization to deliver positive monetary esteem is an advantage.

Sharing of ideas

            In the group of 3 that I was on I was very comfortable discussing my business plan because this a plan I’ve had in mind for years. I discussed the idea I had in my head and most the pros and cons that came with my idea. Everyone that I discussed my plan with also gave me positive feedback and constructive criticism. I know there’s many people that shy away from discussing their plan or don’t share because they are afraid someone will “ steal” their idea. I believe that if you have a creative idea and someone took it than it shows how amazing of a person you are. The possibilities are endless at that point you can come up with another idea just as good or even better. Other people in my group also discussed their ideas and I gave them positive feedback as well. I remember there was one person that had an idea of a tinder but for photographers, his idea was very unique and the amazing thing about this individual is that he actually said “You guys can run with this idea if y

Startup

This documentary was very interesting. It showed Khaleil and how he built his startup company. The documentary really showed a lot of the aspects that go into building your business and the way it showed it through the CEOs lenses was amazing. Khaleil faced a lot of struggles but not once did I see him give up. He literally says that “he refuses to lose” and it shows. This documentary shows a lot of the things we talked about in class. There’s partnerships, there’s talk about business partners, legal help with lawyers, hiring people and the different levels of the company. The hours of work that are put into the company are not really shown but you can tell that a lot of hours are put into everything. The two owners of the company khaleil and his friend are always arguing and have a lot of differences. They don’t agree on a lot of things but always come up with solution. One of the things I really admire about Khaliel is his ability to talk to people and communicate positively. Even
