GoDaddy CEO Bob Parsons
In business it is always good to have individuals you can count on for advice. Depending on the stage of a company, for young entrepreneurs it is typically their board and/or investors. Usually it is the board, but as a small business owner that does not have or need a board it could be an advisory board. Not to get into details but an advisory board is often used so the members cannot control your company as they do not have a vote or official authority and as such the members may prefer “advisory” status as they do not have any fiduciary duties to the company and therefore no liability. I digress.
The point of this post is to introduce you to a vlog put out by the CEO of GoDaddy Bob Parsons. If you take a look at his background you will see that he is a serial entrepreneur. He has been successful multiple times, both with online, offline, and those businesses that span both worlds. Even as CEO of Go Daddy he owns a chain of motorcycle stores.

I love this particular episode, it is embedded below. However you can find them all at BobParsons.me as there are over 30 episodes. This episode is funny to me because I rarely answer my phone. It is not because I do not want to talk to someone but in most cases it just slows down my work product. Here is the episode and I encourage you to visit his site and watch the videos as it is much like having a general advisory board member.
