Great prompt! I am based out of Albuquerque, New Mexico and I absolutely love it here - an outdoors enthusiasts best-kept-secret! My company is Digital Reach Online Solutions! We provide complete customer lifecycle services, including marketing, communications, and technology. I like to say that if it involves engaging your customers, we can help you! From marketing & communication strategies to tech-stack onboardings, implementations, integrations, and customizations, we have you covered! Personal interests and hobbies - I love beach volleyball, snowboarding, adventure travel (my wife and I are driving the Pamir Highway this summer and drove to Alaska and back last summer), unique and special coffees, and overlanding. We have a truck-top-camper and are currently looking into what our next rig will be! My most unique hobby or interest might be Vipassana meditation - I have completed 3 courses and would like to complete more so that I can do a 30 day sitting some day. My personal mantras are “just keep swimming,” “only time will tell,” and “she who is most certain wins.” I say “just keep swimming” because I believe that if we just keep going, things will eventually get better. Maybe it will be in a day and maybe it will take more than a year but if we keep moving and striving, thing usually improve. I like “only time will tell,” because there is an element of unpredictability to life that is important to consistently acknowledge. It is easy to think that we are in control of everything and that can lead to a lot of negative thoughts and emotions, in my opinion. Remembering that things can always change for the better or for the worse helps me to stay grounded. She who is most certain wins is something that was told to me by a female leader that I worked with many years ago. That statement always stuck with me because certainty can do a lot. The greatest inventors of our time were certain that they could do something that others said could never be done. That certainty is what drives the actions that get results. Nice to meet everyone - looking forward to chatting with everyone here! --- This post was migrated from connect.com and was originally published at an earlier date.
Here is a little bit of information about me: 
Where are you based out of? - I am born and raised in the UK, but moved to Colombia with my family in July 2022. Tell us a little about your company. - I run two businesses: 1. Emiquent is a human-centric ecommerce SEO agency that combines traditional SEO with UX and CRO, 2. I also work as a business coach. Any personal interests or unusual hobbies that you’d like to share with the group? - I love painting tabletop wargaming miniatures. I am thinking of creating tutorials for YouTube. I don’t want to get a big head, but I think I am pretty good at it If you had to create a personal mantra or affirmation for yourself, what would it be and why? - “Failures are just part of the journey to success.” We can all feel down at times due to our mistakes. Sometimes it is hard to carry on when you don’t think you will achieve success (whatever that means to you). But, our failures are to be expected, and we need to ‘keep keeping on’. You never know when success is just around the corner. --- This post was migrated from connect.com and was originally published at an earlier date.

Hello Founders! 
I’m Jojo, a new business owner with plenty of relevant experience. Where are you based? Dublin, Ireland. I moved here from Germany 10 years ago and still love it. 
Tell us about your company. 
"DTaaS - Digital Transformation as a Service" focuses on SMEs and Startups, offering a one-stop solution for modernizing their operations. Inspired by clients needing more support than large providers offer, we emphasize enablement, training, and long-term support. Any personal interests or unusual hobbies? I got into baking bread after moving to Ireland because what I wanted wasn’t available or affordable. I’m also a museum junkie and would spend 90% of my holidays in local museums if I could. Personal mantra or affirmation? 1. Be skeptical of easy answers to hard questions. 2. Always challenge your assumptions; no two situations are truly alike, and even the best advice can’t cover all nuances. I’d love to have a chat with other founders to exchange ideas and solutions for common challenges so please feel free to hit me up with a meeting using the link in my profile or send a quick message to johannes@dtaas.ie All the Best! --- This post was migrated from connect.com and was originally published at an earlier date.
Hi everyone! I’m a California native. I’ve lived up north in the Bay Area (San Jose, Mountain View) and currently reside in Sunny San Diego. I also spent a few years in Montana. Nice to meet you! VSSL is a brand-first full-service creative marketing agency and a Platinum HubSpot Solutions Partner. We love being involved in the local marketing & design communities and creating thoughtful, strategic work to support our client’s growth and needs. We primarily work with b2b companies with a hand in some sort of technology-based pot but are always excited to take on other interesting projects outside of our standard ICP. I have 2 dogs - Basil, a red Siberian husky, and Annabelle, a hound who was sent to the mainland from Kauai - and in my free time (when the pups are not bossing me around), I love to just generally nerd out. From building PCs and custom mechanical keyboards to teaching myself 3d modeling and testing my creations with my 3d printer. My personal mantra would be a snippet of a quote from one of my favorite poets, Robert Frost, who, on his 80th birthday, said, “In three words, I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life. It goes on.” Nice to meet you all - can’t wait to engage and learn more from you all in this group! --- This post was migrated from connect.com and was originally published at an earlier date.
