This is a great article, I found it 8 months late but none the less. They make a great point with the "servers" comment. Gen Y entrepreneurs focus on the small details too often which blindes them from the bigger vision. Most of the technical commodities like servers can be figured out if you partner with the right people. What's most important is that they had a vision and executed on it.

Also, the last section (It's our time now) was inspiring, I didn't know all those companies started that way! It's easy to forget that all the largest companies in the world like Pepsi, Target or P & G were once upon a time just an idea.

Great post!

I love the comment about how he didn't know anything about tech. “servers, well i knew they blinked”. It really pushes the point you can do anything…and it also is very important you find the right people to go into business with. Find people that compliment you and fill your weaknesses.

Good point, Matt. I do own my name's domain name and I have another site
http://www.drcoach.com that is about my coaching so I'm not too far lost
hopefully!

Hi Carmen, good point–just don't forget to build your personal brand along with your NuNomad brand. If something ever happens to your partnership or you decide to go another direction or want more opportunities coming your way its important to stand on your own!

Can't wait to hear what you think about the new Rock Star Business Series.

Thanks Matt. The complicating thing though, is that Nu Nomad is not just
me. It's a partnership with a guy named Richard Hamel.

Carmen, is that your picture! I've needed to put a face to the name for a long time now. I think you should do the same on Twitter–you are your brand!

You got it Paul–that's what I love about Twitter so much, is that it is completely open–anyone can talk to anyone regardless of whether you know them or not. It's like millions of cool people being at one big networking event. Just go out and start shaking hands!

Surrounding yourself with the right people makes all the difference in your ability to keep pushing! It doesn't matter your idea, that can be fixed, but your core team needs to be on target!
