When I cofounded Truvani, I had zero experience in creating my own consumer packaged goods and selling them. This inexperience turned into one of our biggest strengths. Here’s why….

Explain this: Someone impersonated our company with a Gmail. They invite people to partner and ask to be paid via phone number for Apple Pay. I called the number and someone answered. Said he accepted Apple Pay, but doesn’t know what I’m referencing. IS HE THE FRAUDSTER???.

They said they refunded without giving any issues. I’ve always liked Evernote. I think it was the first cloud note taking app of its kind that just understood the idea behind a database of notes. While I haven’t used it much over the years, I do understand the difficulty.

After digging, more information came to light and I feel compelled to give an update. #1. Yes, my monthly Evernote bill went from $65.14 to $1361.83 - COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS. #2. The reason why was because my Evernote account was considered "Evernote Teams," and they.

PSA: Evernote raised their monthly fee of my account from $65.14 to $1361.83. I have received monthly receipts from them for 5 years or so. But when they changed the price by more than 2000%. They seemingly stopped sending receipts. WTF?. So, they got me for $1361 last month.

You know you’re 40 when your friend has to clarify he’s going to the doctor and it’s nothing serious.

To provide an update, even though they were emailing my email the billing information and receipts. The account was supposedly linked to another email which isnt disclosed anywhere on my billing that I was able to see. So, receipts were sent to this one email. But account.

It gets even better. When I login to my account to view my "subscription," it says I dont even have a subscription. So, I can't even cancel it or see any of my billing history or anything.

When I was a kid, I never appreciated how much work it is to take your kid to all their different activities. It’s a ton of work. And there’s traffic. And I’d sell my soul to never do this again during rush hour.

So, I'm picking my kid up and I witness one of the funniest interactions between a 7 year old and a dad. ever. The kid goes on about how tired she is. And how she did "gymnastics all day." And the dad fires back, "well, I'm tired, too.". The kid looks at the dad.

I used to sell high priced products that could cost anywhere from 500 to 25,000. Now I sell protein powder with an average price of 40 or 50 dollars. I can tell you one thing:. Selling 20,000 of something at 6,000 a pop is way different than selling 2,900,000 of something at 40.

If you’re hunting for good news here’s something: Talkspace therapy is covered by most insurance plans and the average copay is only $15 (but most covered members pay $0).

Okay, I’m doing something different. It may seem like a waste of time…. But I’ve been itching to make content. Content that has nothing to do with business. Instead, content related to the life stage I’m at: dad and cofounder of Truvani. I’ve been thinking of posting it.

Every single month, Truvani has hundreds events where people can get free samples of product in person. I’m truly grateful for every single ambassador who helps spread awareness. Our hope is to scale this from hundreds of events each month to thousands over the next 6 months.

I don't know if there's something wrong with me. But whenever I drink anything with Stevia in it I feel some weird sort of metallic after taste in the back of my mouth. This is why I'm genuinely excited for our new organic whey protein powder. NO STEVIA!!!!!. We launched

You’ve heard about the importance of product blocks in retail. I’m proud to say this is what the protein aisle looks like right now in Sprouts. They’ve been such a great partner for our company and also the entire industry with their forward thinking push towards cleaner

This is how you bring a new product to market. You’ll find out organic whey protein in Sprouts with amazing end caps like this. Now of course I’m biased, but this genuinely tastes amazing. Like melted ice cream. No joke. I’m happy that Sprouts took a chance on us and launched
