šŸ“£ Micro-blog content for small business owners to run their businesses without a GLITCH.šŸ’„

Biz Glitch 366 is for PROACTIVE Business Owners.
Mistakes are inevitable but the key is to minimize their severity and learn from them without excessive stress.

The focus of this project is to motivate small business owners to learn and be reminded of all that we must manage daily.Ā 

The project includes 366 pieces of business-related content.Ā Running a business is both a sprint and a marathon.Ā There’s always new stuff to learn.Ā And sometimes, it’s after the mistake hasĀ already been made.

We saw, firsthand, how small business owners lost millions of dollars by not knowing how to prepare for a business loan request. This process can test a small business owner on how challenging it is to be organized with the various aspects of running a business.Ā 

Watch our introduction video and Glitch #1 on shy we created this project.

{ EXPERIENCE }

As an SBO and entrepreneur for 20+ years, Linda Rey has worked with thousands of SBOs all over the United States. Her career spans almost 40 years in the insurance field including owning an insurance agency.
Linda Rey’s professional experience includes (in no particular order):

* Sales, marketing & branding strategies
* Insurance underwriting
* Implementing management concepts
* Personnel development

In 2017, Linda Rey sold her business and with her partner, TrevorĀ launched Aurora Consulting, a Commercial Financing Brokerage and content creation business to help entrepreneurs expand their enterprise with unique, cost effective business financing solutions.

Trevor is a retired mortgage loan officer with over 30 years of experience in lending and who has specialized with government loans.

He’s also a professional musician and an aspiring published author. He’s currently a full time content creator with extensive financing and business consulting experience.

When the pandemic hit, their financing brokerage shut down as Lenders scrambled with the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).

As entrepreneurs do, they pivoted and sought to help business owners learn the fundamentals about business financing and how to apply for the SBAā€™s Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL).

They developed a national reputation assisting business owners all over the country and helped to secure over $70 million (that could be quantified) in disaster funding for small business owners.

[ MISTAKES ]

Itā€™s easy to NOT know everything about running a business. We fly by the seat of our pants, wing it and learn as we go. We canā€™t read a textbook and be ready to build a flawlessly profitable business.

It takes grit and grace to pull off the challenges that come along with running and managing an SBO on a daily basis.

[ WE DON'T KNOW ]

We donā€™t know that a mistake is around the corner no matter how benign or colossal that mistake may be when it happens. There are a couple facets that make this troubling.

1. We donā€™t know what we donā€™t know.
2. Some learn from mistakes and recover swiftly and some donā€™t recover at all

[ WHAT & WHY EXACTLY ]

This NFT project is a MISTAKE of the Day concept where we outline a daily consideration thatā€™s vital to running a business.

After being hired by 500+ clients in the last two years, we saw grave deficiencies in the approach of how SBOs were managing various aspects of their business. This led to a need to generate content encompassing these categories.

{ ARTWORK }

Let’s get the elephant out of the room right now.Ā You do not need to know anything about Web3 (blockchain), but this 366 Glitch Project includes an art collection with 366 non-fungible tokens (NFTs). If you have a Web3 wallet, email Linda@AuroraConsulting.biz, and we will reserve an NFT in your name. Ā 

Simply, due to Linda Rey’s passion for collecting art since the mid-1990’s. Art has always provided a sense of intrigue, whimsy, peace and calm. We wanted to evoke this emotion with the collection. We want each NFT to have some beauty built into it to politely distract from the boring business banter.Ā 

Art is like magic; and after working with countless business owners during our entire combined careers, we wanted to make the concept of this project as approachable and digestible as possible.

{ Let's talk COMMUNITY }

Our goal is to build a network of trusted professionals to have vital Q&A sessions on a particular topic and so holders can communicate with others for inspiration, motivation, accountability, and access to information vital to the day-to-day operations of a business.

We’ll be using Geneva for the community platform. We look forward to sharing that with you when it’s developed. We want to build a network of like-minded business owners looking to grow and excel in their field. Learning from others with common interests and goals is the most satisfying way we know of to propel excellence.

{ CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTION }

Once 100% minted out, 6.5% of the proceeds will be donated to Dress for Success. This organization focuses on empowering women all over the globe. Their mission includes: Empower women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.

{ FAQ's }

We spoke to countless business owners during the pandemic. We saw them struggle to get approved for a disaster loan. The business loan process, in general, is arduous and fraught with hurdles and hiccups.

Many were delayed in getting approved, or worse, didn’t get approved at all because they simply didn’t have basic systems and processes established in their business to meet the lending requirements.

This demonstrated that there are likely many more small business owners who may not be aware of certain things that are critical to business operations until it’s too late.

NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. It’s a cryptographic asset on a blockchain that has varying properties that differentiate them from one another.

Contrary to the dollar, a dollar has the same value no matter if you have a $1 dollar bill or 4 quarters.

NFTs are digital assets with ownership inĀ content such as images, videos, music, events, etc.

If you’re purchasing an NFT on Opensea, the prices vary but one digital token will get you access to all 366 glitches emailed to your inbox.

Glitches are emailed to you. You can choose either one glitch per day or 7 glitches sent in one weekly digest email.
