Trick or treat! With Halloween just around the corner we thought it would be fun to do a little giveaway. This week we’ll be giving away 3 PumpkinWOW party packs (12 pumpkin tattoo patterns in each) to 3 lucky people.
Thanks to our Tell Us Your Story program, we recently met Grasshopper customer Jim Christopherson, CEO of PumpkinWOW. PumpkinWOW takes carving pumpkins to a whole new level. Gone are the days of poking holes in paper templates. With the PumpkinWOW tattoo patterns, creating amazing pumpkin carvings is easy. Simply peel the tattoo, soak it in water, apply it to the pumpkin and you’re ready to start carving.

Hire slow.
Take you time hiring and don’t settle for the first person, make sure you get the RIGHT person. Taking teh time up front will save you a lot of hassle in the end.
Source – regardless of your educations or experience you can NOT be everything all the time. Source things out, hire an accountant, HR consultant to help with hiring, phone services (like grasshopper) to field annoying solicitors, etc. Keep the focus on your business, otherwise being a jack of all trades will ensure you are an expert at none.
Be Social – I don’t mean social media, I mean be SOCIAL. Attend events, join local business groups, attend trade shows, etc. The old saying “it’s not what you know, but who you know” is not entirely true but it’s very close.
See it, do it, teach it….
