closing up shop

Bringing things to an end isn’t always easy.  Before moving to Bucharest, Romania to work towards the end of Human Trafficking we have to close up shop here in America.  Over the last 4 years I started a number of businesses and ventures.  Some were successful and some were simply great learning opportunities.

I’m pleased to share that I was able to pass on a few of my ventures to friends that were able to roll them into their existing businesses.  My Indianapolis Real Estate website my317home.com was bought by a great friend Paula Henry and merged with her amazing site www.hometoindy.com.  I spent a lot of time building & optimizing the website and I’m glad that someone was able to put it to good use.  I’ve gotten to know Paula pretty well over the last few years and appreciate all the time I’ve been able to spend with her and her husband.

My Indianapolis DJ business – theSimpleDJ was bought by another friend Danny LaPlante.  He will also be merging the business with his own – Elite Beat Mobile DJ.  Andrea & I personally DJ’d over 100 weddings.  We never thought we’d be DJing, but found it to be great fun.

I’m glad we’ve been where we’ve been, but I’m even more excited about our future.  So as we close up shop… we’re open another door.

Write yourself a future letter

I believe that 2011 will be full of lots of changes for the Crozier family.

The first big announcement is a new online business I just launched to help people write themselves a future letter.

I have found a lot of personal value in writing a letter to my future-self.  This business will making it even easier.

Fabusend Review

Here’s my Fabusend Review…

I noticed there aren’t a lot of reviews of Fabusend (the Email Letterhead) so I thought I’d say a few words about the product.

When I got into real estate I knew I needed something to set myself apart from all the other realtors in Indianapolis.  I wanted my emails to stand out and make a be memorable for my clients so when I found Fabusend… I knew I had something special.

Fabusend Review

Fabusend allows you to add a custom letterhead to your outbound emails.

One of the cool features is that you don’t necessarily have to send EVERY email send with the header, it’s optional.  Fabusend has created plugins that allow you to use virtually ever email platform. (Including Apple Mail)

Dominos: Losing Focus?

Let’s be honest… I’m a critical person.  I believe in excellence and when I see businesses missing the mark I like to point it out.  Shoot me.

While on our summer vacation to Minnesota we had to stop by and grab some Punch Pizza as all our friends were raving about it.  While Andrea ran into Punch to grab a pie-to-go I waited in the car and happened to park outside this Dominos Pizza right on the University of Minnesota campus.

I couldn’t help but laugh out loud at the signs in the window.  ALL of them are about hiring new employees.  What about the pizza?  Not even 1 sign to promote your NEWLY crafted pizza???

I happened to give the new pizza a try last weekend… I’m impressed.

Church Themez

I love to start businesses/websites.  Sometimes I start them and don’t pay them any attention.  The latest culprit is www.churchthemez.com

This website is meant to be a listing of church wordpress themes for people to find wordpress themes for their church.  I need to update the site with more themes for people to review.  I’m hoping to get to it sometime in the next few weeks.
