Pitching Ideas: The Buzzuka Blog

At Buzzuka, we are focused on helping micropreneurs succeed because we view micropreneurship is one of the most important ingredients to individual and company success. We define a “micropreneur” as a “creative self-starter who believes in their own success and is ready, willing and able to build it from the ground up.” To us, “micropreneur” is an umbrella term that spans several areas including:

• starting a new company (a.k.a. solo-preneur)
• boosting a career with new opportunities (a.k.a. career builder)
• fostering a new business or idea within the structure of an existing company (a.k.a. intra-preneur)

If you’re wondering whether or not you’re an micropreneur, try this pop quiz.

1. Do you sketch on the back of envelopes and draw on a whiteboards?
2. Do you think up new ideas that you think will make money and add value?
3. Do you imagine yourself doing more with your life or career in the future?
4. Do you believe you shouldn’t take “no” for an answer when it comes to turning possibilities into realities?
5. Do you feel satisfaction when you create something from the ground up?

If you answered “yes” to any or all of these questions, you may be a budding micropreneur and the time to get started is now. Create an elevator pitch at www.Buzzuka.com and jump in. If you’re truly a micropreneur, there’s no stopping you.
