Transform your business with Secrets from Silicon Valley.
This event is more than a year in the works, thousands of hours of work from some very talented people, and more than a few sleepless nights on my own part. We are opening our San Francisco based creativeLIVE studio TOMORROW and the very first broadcast is one you don’t want to miss. I’ll be hosting and it’s going to deliver a punch of insider, unprecedented information from some of the world’s smartest people.
Just as Hollywood implies celebrity, Silicon Valley is synonymous with creative innovation. Attracting the greatest business minds in the world, SV is the world’s startup epicenter. This broadcast offers you direct access to the pioneering minds behind this powerful community. Whether your business is just you or employs fifty people, you’ll learn how to survive, grow, and thrive directly from entrepreneurs who have done it. Do you want to learn from LinkedIn’s founder Reid Hoffman and ask about his secrets to success? Tim Ferriss? Guy Kawasaki? Chris Guillebeau? You’ll hear from them and many more. I know I’ve learned a thing or two from these people I call friends, but knowing what I know about how valuable their secrets have been, I would have given a limb to be able to ask them questions years ago.

Hey Superstars & Heroes!!
We’re trying to build up an Art Muse Business, three masterminds combine their strengths.
Our goal is to hit the list of the: “100 most influential Artists Worldwide”
We all have been going down the normal road, one is a true & bloody good Artist, studied with outstanding diploma and was the only master pupil of his professor (Fedkovic)!!
Us other two, made our way through the German system with different approaches and ended up to bring a local business store for 7 years up to speed together, which we then sold successfully.
We had about 92% costs, which was unbareable. That was our minds turning point.
Now, with a little freedom & time in the back, we are trying to bring “Jack the Flipper” to the top!! We’ll just have a year….
We work and will work harder further on (us 3 = 1000/Hours/month)
What your offer would bring?
It’ll help us focus & build up a master plan, maybe connect us with the “right” people for our (ad)venture, we are independent & free minded, and ready 🙂
Help us to rocket our business to the top, remember, it’ll be morally & ethically correct in no way we would exploit people our motto is: always strive to elevate our craft.
Thank you for the one time opportunity!!
“The world is our dream” – JacktheFlipper 1999
Simply put…I can take a picture but don’t know where to go after that!
You are all very busy people right? Doesn’t your wife/girlfriend sometimes complain you don’t do enough together anymore? I try to help couples bring more fun experiences into their relationships, by making it super easy to find original stuff to do. My startup, Romantify.com is a peer-to-peer marketplace for experiences for couples. It has been a tough journey so far, being able to get advise from some of the best minds in SV could give this project a big boost. So by helping Romantify you could make this world a little bit better.
PS I know i’m probably to late for this contest. But hey, maybe your wife or girlfriend reads this post and can persuade you to give a second ticket 😉
After recently unsuccessfully exiting my first start-up in Asia, I am returning to the U.S. for the next round of the entrepreneurial journey. This would be an amazing experience and literally the most incredible way to transition both into my next project and back into life in the U.S.
