The game of business: LaunchNow.co

I missed yesterday, but am making up for it today! I have many thoughts of what to write about and will pump them out as quick as I can (barring burnout!). But I wanted to make a special post about a new company/website that was shared by someone I follow on twitter (@andrewpheil) and it's LaunchNow.co. The reason I wanted to share/talk about them is mainly because the site is awesome. It's a business (website) that makes a game out of your business (or website). I believe that this business was formed out of a weekend event called StartupWeekend in Indianapolis, Indiana. (Which I will be at the StartupWeekend in Evansville, Indiana February 24th-26th! I'd love to see you there: StartupEvv).

Now for the good stuff.

Launch the "LaunchNow" website and click "sign up" at the top of the page, enter a few details about your company and get started! (pictured below is the Students2U page):

You can click "earn achievements" or even just edit your profile with certain information (twitter account, facebook page, youtube, etc.) and earn achievements as well! The purpose is to compete with other businesses and work on your own at the same time. There are many achievements and many more to come. Users even have the opportunity to contribute to the site by offering feedback and suggestions on improving the site. Also, the site states that they are working on many new features upcoming.

So if you haven't done so already check out the site: LaunchNow.co and sign up! Now, here's where the "call to action" really comes into play: they need financial support. Fortunately they have given us all a way to contribute to the game of business through a website indiegogo which is much like kickstarter but more loosely structured to include business and websites, etc. So check out LaunchNow's page on Indiegogo and support a good business community cause! Here's the link: Support LaunchNow.

I do want to disclaim that I have not yet contributed to this project but fully intend to. Also, I am in now way connected to the owner of this website and have no financial interest in Launch Now, LLC. And finally, Launch Now and its contents are copyright of Launch Now, LLC. Is that enough legal stuff for ya?

I'm out.
