Pooped but Proud

It's 6:45am and I am exhausted but happy. A reporter from the local paper spent some time interviewing us last night and Tom and I were very impressed at how the girls handled themselves. Both Katie and Emma were able to articulate our company's goals, some of their ideas, and even inject some humor. They were polite and poised. It was one of those moments that I thought, "yup, this is working."

But we are all tired. We are learning that there is a lot to starting a company, especially when you are documenting the process as you go. We work our day jobs and come home to dive in to bread and butter. Who will we partner with next? How are sales? Whose turn to blog? What new products will we offer? How can we make our web site more interactive? We love it but it sure is busy!!

I learned last night to leverage the relationships you have to help you with the areas you have no expertise in. Translated: Beg your family and friends for favors!! My cousin Tina, a brilliant entrepreneur and graphic designer (check out stevens470), is going to help us transform our logo so we can use it on more than just tees...be watching for some cool new products coming in the next week or so. Thanks Tina!

Okay...need...more...coffee. Have a great day.
