megan_final.jpgYou may have noticed some changes on the Startup Blog during the past two weeks or so. Posts are becoming more frequent, and content is hopefully becoming more engaging.

Well I will gladly take credit for that (unless you don’t like the changes, in which case it was someone else’s fault). As of today I am fully in charge of the blog, and along with that I am looking to kick it up a notch.

From now on posts will be daily, Monday through Friday that is. I’m a firm believer in working hard during the week and living it up on the weekend, so don’t expect anything out of me Saturday or Sunday, or any time after happy hour starts on Friday.

I’m also looking to tweak the content a bit. My goal is to provide you with material that is engaging and current. There are tons of issues plaguing entrepreneurs and small business owners these days, so if there’s a pressing matter that I’m neglecting, I encourage you to let me know (email me at: startupblog at partnerup dot com). I promise I won’t be offended.

I also welcome your comments—good or bad. Nothing drives discussion like a good debate. I’m not afraid to unapologetically go round-for-round with you, so don’t be afraid to do the same with me. I really do enjoy it. Honestly!

Now that I’ve outlined the “new and improved” Startup Blog, I suppose it’s time to do the obligatory “tell you a little bit about myself.” Well, I have a B.A. in Journalism and Mass Communication from the University of Minnesota. My background is in all-things writing, but not necessarily small business writing. Since I’ve been working at PartnerUp, however, I’ve learned more than I ever expected about the fast-paced, innovation-driven world of small business and entrepreneurship. I swear, you people are machines—in a good way of course. I also hate acronyms, am obsessed with checking the weather. Oh, and if you didn’t already catch it in the byline, my name is Megan.

So I guess that is my “in a nutshell” introduction. I look forward to writing for you, and I sincerely hope that I can live up to any expectations that I may have set with this post.
