CallFire hosts Poker Startups 8

By Kim Kohatsu

Last night, about 30 startup entrepreneurs visited CallFire HQ for Poker Startups, a monthly invitation-only poker night and networking opportunity for tech founders and employees, execs, and investors. The stakes are kept low "in deference to the bootstrapping startups," but pride is a hefty price to pay.

Philanthro Connect 2011: Connecting Tech and Non-Profits

By Ryann T,
Last Friday, CallFire helped sponsor Philanthro Connect 2011-- a great invitation-only event put on by Philanthro Productions in order to connect emerging technology companies with the non-profit community. Since we work with hundreds of non-profits, we were interested in the idea as soon as we heard about, and we're glad we had the chance to make the event possible (as well as attend it). We even roped our CEO, Dinesh Ravishanker, into booth duty.

Why Supporting a Good Cause Will Benefit Your Business

By natalia
In one of my recent posts, I briefly mentioned "Generation G" -- a growing contingent of Americans described by trendwatching.com, where the G stands for Generosity. These Americans are increasingly "disgusted with greed" and its effects on society and the economy; they long for more generosity, for "institutions that care," and for for people who "share, give, engage, create and collaborate."

Americans Want Deals

By Ryann T,
Some business-owners are under the erroneous impression that a deal must provide huge savings in order to attract customers. But it doesn't matter how small or big it is -- Americans always want a deal. Sure, the bigger the better, but it's the concept of "saving money" in general that's so attractive to consumers.
