I’ve been working on the Novatorius brand, and getting a better understanding for just what on earth my business “is”. It’s all been in my head, and feels great to get it all out of my head. I was even able to get a brand and style guide put together! Here’s a little sneak peek.

One of the most unexpectedly great things about my personal site has been that it allows me to test ideas quickly. No domain, no website, nothing. Just toss up a page on the site and try it. Improve, iterate, and transition if it proves worthwhile.

This is a tough week. I have 4 different projects all launching at the same time.
The good news is I have two launches down – just two more to go!
I hopped on Kurt’s podcast, and talked about Siren, business, and just in-general where my head is at after leaving GoDaddy earlier this year.

Wanted to share a small PHP library that I put together this morning. This makes it a bit easier to build and replace template strings in PHP.

Projects are progressing. Developers are gaining velocity. Writers are writing. Sales pipeline and video editing is all set up. It’s been a heck of a process, but every day that passes I feel more confident that I am ready for this. Let’s GO.

I have 2 more developers (perhaps 3?) starting next week, so my Friday consisted of documenting the Novatorius discovery process and making sure they’re all set when they get started.

It’s the 10th. Which means it’s PAYDAY! Woohoo!
Keeping track of this stuff is annoying. Kinda wish I had an accountant to help. Any recommendations?
