Alex Jensen’s campaign guru merging with the Zeal Center
I found this to be an interesting merger, hopefully Mr. Paulson will comment on why he decided to do this;
The Zeal Center for Entrepreneurship is assuming operations of Startup Sioux Falls in the coming months.
By January, Zeal, the community entrepreneurship center founded by Forward Sioux Falls in 2004, will run Startup Sioux Falls, which was launched by MarketBeat founder Matt Paulson earlier this year.
“Zeal and Startup Sioux Falls are now a single organization, with two distinct brands, focused on the single mission of helping startup founders and small-business owners start and grow their businesses for the betterment of themselves, their families and their communities,†Zeal executive director Brienne Maner said.
I have been watching this kind of activity go on in our city quite recently and across the country. My opinion (and it is JUST mine) is that salespeople will sell anything they can to make a buck. My philosophy is that if you have a good idea and business plan, what you are selling will sell itself. If you need ‘help’ in selling something, you might as well just remain a working stiff, because you are doing a disservice to honest consumers.
