In my free time I enjoy the ancient sport of archery, sport crossbow target shooting, deep sea fishing, day hiking, recreational kayaking, high intensity weight training, ice hockey, and outdoor cooking.
Let's connect on social media:
“Cold calling” If these two words automatically fill your mind with negative thoughts, fear, dread, and loathing, then I want to help you.
Like many people, I used to hate going to networking events.
Do you enjoy spinning tunes, making people happy, and earning a steady stream of supplemental income? Then a mobile DJ business could be the perfect side hustle for you.
Recently, I’ve decided to change careers. I am making the switch from marketing to sales. I made this decision because I want to continue advancing my career while further expanding my business knowledge and skills. Plus, I enjoy learning new things and taking on challenges.
What is a small business? A “small business” is defined by the US Small Business Association (SBA) as an enterprise with 500 or less employees. According to the latest SBA stats, over 50% of the working population (120 million people) in the US works in a small business. Why does a small business need social media […]
I have a mission in life. I want to help people live their dream and become successful. That sounds like a stupid mission, right? Maybe. But I still want to try and help people with my knowledge and experience on how to run a successful business.
Have you ever had an idea for a small business that was so crazy, so unusual, so highly “thinking outside of the box” that you just had to try it out to see if it could actually work? In this post, I will introduce you to five highly unusual and unique companies started by entrepreneurs […]

All business owners want the same thing in life. To continue living their dream.
One of the most popular articles on The Idea Hunters.net is an article I wrote in the summer of 2013 about how to make money writing for freelance blogging websites.
Before my I found my current former job as a line cook, I worked for a few months as a pizza maker at a popular pizza restaurant in the Boston area.
Think it’s too late in the game to start a business? You’re probably right.
Do you have a blog that is not getting a lot of traffic? You may be wondering how to get more blog traffic without spending ALL of your free time blogging. Well, I’m going to let you in on a cold, hard truth when it comes to this blogging game. You ready for this? Here […]
A year ago I was unhappy with the direction I was taking in my life. I was thinking about switching careers and finally pursuing my passions (writing and cooking). I just didn’t know how to do it.
I had aspirations of becoming an executive chef and owning my own restaurant. To achieve this dream, I needed to first gain knowledge and experience in the restaurant industry.

Like a lot of people these days, I have many different interests and goals in life. One of those goals is owning a food truck.
I have a confession to make. I don’t know everything there is to know about selling, and I don’t really know everything about marketing, either.
If you’re wondering how to write a blog post, then you’ve come to the right blog. That’s because I blog about blogging and how to use it to achieve success in business and life.
