Week 15 Reflection
Boosting capitalism is something that this chapter really focuses on. The pyramid companies have to deal with was a main section of this chapter. Learning how to build a solid infrastructure inside your company is something that helps build a successful one. Making sure your approach is oriented torwards making money and profiting is what I took away from this chapter. How can I go about hiring goal and money driven people? What do I need to do to get rid of existing workers who don't have that mindset.
Final Reflection
What I have learned from entrepreneurship is that it is important to be prompt with what you are doing. From turning assignments in at 9 pm to making sure you have all of your priorities lined up up when venturing into the business world. I have learned that is important to take peer advice into your progress.
I hope to take this class and what I have learned into my own career path. I am going to need to be diligent and efficient in my work.

Venture Concept No. 2
Well after learning from what other have had to say about my concept I have made some adjustments. What I have learned is that I need to make my application as user friendly as possible. I need to ensure that my application does a good job providing insight to those who want to go out to bars and would be willing to use my application on a regular basis.
I didn't completely change my venture concept I just managed to twerk it. I think being an entrepreneur means learning to make adjustments not completely retooling what I have done to this point because I have been successful.

Week 14 Summary
Being social as an entrepreneur is something is very vital. When starting a business or even a corporate business it is important to be creative in what you do. You must think of tactics and techniques that help separate yourself from others in the field. Chapters 3 and 4 are what really helped me learn this. I would like to ask the author what types of social media can help a business? what strives in that aspect should I be making? When and how is a good time to reach potential customers over social media?
Google Gold
1) A discussion of your general approach and strategy to search engine optimiation (SEO). What were some of the activities you did for each blog post to pursue SEO?
I think that being aggressive in your ability to strategize as an entrepreneur is key and I did that in pursuing my SEO.
2) What were your keywords. How did you select those keywords? Did you change or refine your keywords through the semester?
Keywords are something that attracts the audience. How did you differ yourself? What words make you accessible on google. Simple yet effective.
3) How did you use social media to enhance your SEO efforts? What your your surprises or general impression of using social media to improve your blog's profile? Was social media generally receptive of your blog, or did it get ignored?
My social media is strong. I use solid hashtags to reach people I wanted to. I think twitter was a huge part of my growth and I received good feedback in response to my tweets.
4) What was your most "viral" post? In other words, which post obtained the most traffic? Why do you think?
I had a few tweets go viral. We had advertisements on twitter and promotions that leaked out and became successful on social media.
5) Finally, did you make it to the first page of Google results for your keywords? If not, what page of results did you make it to?
I have not, I think I can continue to strive for that however. Using more tags can get me from page 4 to page 1 in no time.

Very Short Interview 2
What I learned from Baxter Bramblett the founder of Reel it Up is that it takes guts to become and entrepreneur but it is something we must be willing to accept. We must take the risk knowing that our product may not be successful. We must have full confidence in ourselves from the get go. Baxter did that and is a very successful man in the industry.
From the first interview until now I am starting to see myself more and more in him. I am gaining the confidence in my product and want to keep working towards my goal to become more like him.
