Amanda Coolong in on Fire
Amanda Coolong in on Fire. If you don’t know her you should. I was fortunate to meet her about five years ago. She is the Co-Founder of TechZulu. She has interviewed hundreds of executives and start-ups over the years.
What I Love About Amanda
Amanda includes the community when she conducts interviews, she develops an intrinsic amount of empathy, and gets to the juiciness of the conversation right away.
Amanda Inspires
Amanda Coolong is on fire, not literally, but figuratively. A couple of days ago, I saw a new venture on her LinkedIn profile “Context and Narrative” and it perked my interest. So when I ran into her yesterday at Silicon Beach on the roof of ROC; I asked her, “So what’s up with this new venture on your LinkedIn profile?” Then, in that moment Amanda told me about her passion to tell stories and the need for companies to engage rather than sell their services and products to the public. I was engaged, I was inspired, and I loved it.
“Storytelling is the game. It’s what we all do. It’s why Nike is Nike, it’s why Apple is Apple, it’s why Walt Disney built Disney World and it’s why Vince McMahon makes a billion dollars.” Gary Vaynerchuk
Best Advice Hire Amanda
Listen up Amanda Coolong, is a fire starter, she will lite you up, she did me. I am always talking about making free travel possible. And I have much to learn about telling stories from Amanda.
If you see her at Silicon Beach, she is the 5’2 blonde with the crutches….she has a great story to tell you about that. You can follow her on twitter @acoolong. Or better yet hire her to tell your company, product, or founder story.
Disclaimer
I am just a guy in the community, Amanda and I are friendly, and we see each other at events maybe once or twice a year. I love to write about people who are passionate and live to serve others with their talent.
What is your passionate story please share?

Personal Fundraising for Single Moms
Personal Fundraising for Single Moms.
What would life be like if single moms had a personal fund to sponsor free benefits for themselves and their kids? Giving back to single moms, financially empowers families to enjoy life and that makes a difference.
Collaborative Fundraising to Enjoy Life
Why? Why not. It is 2013, and women are still only making 75% compared to men for the same jobs. We are asking moms to do more with less, especially in single parenting homes.
What Benefits are We Prepared to Fund?
Any free benefit makes a difference. Free salon services, yes. Free shopping sprees, yes (only after the kids are taken care of), Free travel, yes, Free creative education, yes, Free Dining rewards (enjoy eating out and not cooking) yes, free yoga for the entire family, free massages, and yes free chocolate too. Create a benefit, collaborate with us and we will fund it for you.
Sounds Too Good to Be True
We are a real company, with caring compassionate recruiting professionals. We are dedicating our lives to use recruiting for good. The caveat is we only help single moms in the U.S… Why? Because we love to have personal relationships with the people we serve.
But My Single Mom Lives Outside the U.S.
If you are willing to use your social contacts to benefit your mom, and you live in the U.S., we are willing to consider helping you fund your single mom, and afford her free travel or chocolates.
We Are Sorry
We apologize to all the people who take offense about the tone of this blog, and its self-serving nature to inspire collaboration, sharing, caring, and personal fundraising for single moms. We sincerely apologize.
What benefit would you like to gift your mom?

How Free Chocolate Funds Travel for Kids and Teachers
“You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.”

How Free Chocolate Funds Kids and Teachers Travel.
Yesterday, I was craving chocolate and I went to Whole Foods in Santa Monica . When I encountered a shocking price for chocolate. When did a chocolate bar become a luxury? Who can afford a $7 dollar or $9 dollar bar of chocolate (even the smallest bar basically two bites was $3.50)? A $7 dollar chocolate bar better be laced with gold and diamonds. Dejected by the sticker price, I walked next door to the 99 Cent Store, and I was about to buy my dollar chocolate. But when I walked to the register to pay, and I was faced with 7 people in front of me. I put the chocolate back, and walked out.
“Enough of my kvetching, I am done with that energy, I thought.” But then it got me thinking, what if my co-op could provide free chocolate as a benefit. What would life be like if every month people could receive free chocolates? And our co-op could simultaneously also raise money to gift free travel to kids and teachers.
Crazy ideas have been hatched in the shower, why not at Whole Foods or the 99 Cent Store?
