I recently left my home of four years; I left where everything was familiar, surrounded by 50,000 people my age with similar interests. Now I live in a new city where I know about 4 people. The truth is: it kind of sucks. However, I know that I have to adapt, and adapt fast. I […]

Our generation has been working in groups since kindergarten.
But now I’m a senior in college, and I’m still surrounded by people who don’t know how to work together. At first thought, I was surprised that my peers were incapable of filling a role in a group. With all this group work […]

I have been looking for the best ways to market to the Gen Y demographic for the past three years. We’ve tried everything from handing out fliers to getting newspaper articles written about us.

I always thought that sales consisted of finding clients, setting up meetings, and getting them to sign a contract that would eventually make me direct advertising money.
