The power of the hashtag has yet to be leveraged
Since, I’m enthralled at the first few steps of founding a startup, let me focus the hashtag on helping us do that. Lets use a hashtag to layer in execution of my mentor’s recipes.
Mark McCormack would ace SXSW.

What is a hashtag based, min viable app?! It fully functions using twttr + EM. For example #LarryChiangSonar and
Larry@duck9.com |
Download nothing.
The “app”, #LarryChiangSonar, is going to help you
– network at sxsw
– pay for SXSW
– get you your ROI for sxsw
– execute sets of signature business recipes
– transition seeing street smarts to doing street smarts
– risk mitigate, risk minimize & risk eliminate
– pattern replicate startups who’ve “won” SXSW

Like GitHub, #LarryChiangSonar breaks down success at #SXSW into 5, 30-35 step signature recipes. Easy to do. Easier not to do

GitHub is your model for understanding. In the same way a CS major ceo copy pastes GitHub code… You as three tech co-founders will be executing basic, basic promotions.
Basic, basic growth via fundamental marketing tasks
These then engineer up our momentum
Sound good?
