It's August 5th and it's my birthday. I'm 34 but I feel young, definitely more like 28 I would say...well screw it...make it 26! In addition to all the Facebook love (thank you all), I'm energized by Event Farm beyond belief. How could I not be…today is a big day! Today is the day we relaunch Event Farm with our new brand and announce version 4.0 of the platform. Deep down, I know this is a turning point for our company and these are days entrepreneurs never forget. Getting to this point has been a grueling six months for all of us but today it's all worth it. I'm probably most inspired by the fact that I can see where every single person on our team has left their mark on this company. That's why you want to be a part of a startup in the first place right?
If you ask an entrepreneur what they want for their birthday, most will tell you they have everything they want. That's what type A people do, they go out and get what they want and they make their dreams a reality. But there are things out there that are only possible to get when a group of people create them together. That's what I'm feeling today and it's powerful. As you'll see on our new website, one of our core values at Event Farm is: "Be You: People make companies. Companies don't make people." Collectively we have built a product and shaped our company. We know what we stand for and we now have a brand that strongly represents that. That's something an entrepreneur can't buy or go get on their own. You have to earn it together.
So on my birthday, I want to give a shout out "thank you" to the people that have given me this wonderful gift. I'm humbled to be a part of a team that can create things this impactful. Thank you - Todd, Justin, Rey, Nick, Tom, Brennan, Alex, Danielle, Stephanie, Christine, Elizabeth, Anthony, Claire, Taylor and from our rebranding team at Arnold Worldwide: Meg, Kate, Brad, and Shannon. You guys have made this a great birthday.
