Inc.com: 30 Under 30 – America’s Coolest Young Entrepreneurs

I saw this article on Yahoo! this morning and immediately thought of another deserving person, our very own Reid Carr.

Reid was chosen to represent 40 Under 40 for the 2005 San Diego Metropolitan Awards; view here:

I wish we had known about Inc.coms 30 Under 30 because I am certain he would have been chosen for that as well.

The article talks about how very young people with very big ideas started to make entrepreneurship cool. Back in 2000 when Reid, myself and our other founders were working together at another agency, Reid had big ideas that he felt we couldn’t meet at our current agency. It’s called ‘Internet Presence Management’ (IPM). Read more about that here:

You may here about IPM from others these days, but the truth is, we’ve been practicing, and implementing it for our clients now for over six years now.

We are providing award winning IPM for some amazing clients here in San Diego. View our client list here:

I could go on and on but I’ll let you get to the article. Thanks for listening!

Inc.com: 30 Under 30 — America’s Coolest Young Entrepreneurs – All Business – Yahoo! Finance: Who Are the 30 Under 30?

Youth, we’ve been told so many times, is wasted on the young. Not this group. A generation ago, when many of our entrepreneurial whiz kids were still in diapers, starting your own business was considered akin to career loafing, occupational flailing. The kind of thing your parents would frown upon, and encourage you to find work in, say, plastics.”

And then a funny thing happened. The Michael Dells and Richard Bransons of the world — very young people with very big ideas — started to make entrepreneurship cool (not to mention, finding fame and millions in the process). Why spend your early years toiling away in Corporate America, the thinking evolved, when you could circumvent it from the get-go? Add to that a proliferation of college programs, an entire how-to industry, a legion of overnight dot-com millionaires for inspiration, and you have the makings of a new, well-treaded career path.
