Learning to be a Food Entrepreneur Episode 6 pt. 2 (11/16/2017)

This is pt. 2 of Episode 6 In this episode I dive in to what my plans were for the camera I purchased. I also talk about how I organized the files, content, and ideas that I come up with. Every Sunday evening around 5pm I started doing an internet broadcast I called 'From The Ground Up: Lazy Sunday Broadcast'. It started off as an experiment where I would play music from artists I met through blogging. After a while the show transformed into a broadcast where I would share my entrepreneurial journey and talk about Food, Tech, and Media. Sometimes I would come up with an idea, talk about it on the broadcast, collect feedback, experiment, and then talk about the results in the next weeks broadcast. I initially got the idea from The Lean Startup by Eric Ries. In the book Eric Ries talks about the Build-Measure-Learn method which is a positive feedback loop to see how effective a product, service, or idea is and changing it based on the feedback you receive. Overtime I used this feedback to change the broadcast and the experiments little by little over time. The show is now called 'Lazy Sundaze' and I have been doing the show every Sunday for 2 years now.  Basically after getting my camera I started planning what I wanted to document and I also built a system that would help me try to  continuously create new things or 'experiments' to document. The end goal was to learn or figure out a way to, make it fun, make it valuable and try to monetize it. In hindsight, I have still not brewed mead. But I have done some other experiments that came up during Lazy Sundaze. I have tried making kombucha,  lacto-fermenting pickles, I have made carrot powder, and celery powder. I have also started a 28 sq foot garden in my back yard and a 4 sq foot garden in my closet. I think at the time of recording this I did not have my pop filter for my microphone yet, so you can hear breathing and other fast-moving air in the microphone. I still use my 'Business Folder' today, however, some of it has moved over to google drive for collaborating purposes.   I also want to mention, during this recording I was trying really hard to learn different or unique ways to document and monitize my experiences. However, over time my need or desire to monetize my documented experiences/experiments faded away. I started to just enjoy sharing my experiences, learning and figuring things out. Now I do Lazy Sundaze, and do the Learning to be a Food Entrepreneur podcast without really any intention to make money from it.
