Team leadership:I have had both successes and failures leading teams, as would anyone. I currently lead a team of five people in the company that I run.
Building a Business: I have a great understanding of the thought process behind starting a business.I have had numerous instructors, and mentors with extensive business backgrounds, as well as real-life business training.
Raising Capital: I have successfully raised investment capital for a business.
Running a Business: I currently create, implement, and monitor most operational processes in my company (i.e. fulfillment, sales, product sourcing, and supply chain management processes).
Blogging: I understand search engine optimization, affiliate networking, blog carnivals, content creation, article syndication, online social networks, social bookmarking, paid search, and Internet advertising, and blog monetization.
Public Speaking: I have done more presentations than I could count. I've effectively presented in school settings as well as in serious business investment meetings.
I understand that I don't know everything. However, I surround myself with people who possess the knowledge or skills that I don't have. I also know how to ask the right questions. Those two skills do a lot for me.
