Good evening Dr. Vogt,
I am a little unsure of how to embed or link a pdf file to the reply. It also doesn’t a spot to select the venture forum. I’m I missing something or should I just be creating a new post? Thanks.
Jon

Hi Jon –
One way for making a PDF available is In the Dashboard area, under “Media”, by selecting”Add New” to upload the document into the blog, including getting a link for it. But you can also link from other document hosting sites or embed using something like Scribd.
And if I understand your question, when you create a new post, the “Categories” selection is on the right side, with “Venture Forum” being among these (the 7th).
Hope this helps,
David

Jon – Each A3 submission should be a new post in the Venture Forum. That enables PulsePress to be activated successfully.

Hi David,
You mentioned that we don’t have to post our “reflection”. Is that referring to the self-evaluation mentioned on Evaluation Rubric, or is it something else? Any particular format you are hoping for or is it fairly open-ended?
Thanks,
Janet

Yes, Janet, I’m referring to the self-reflection part of the rubric – this doesn’t need to be posted, simply submitted to me separately with the complete assignment.
Cheers,
David

Hi David, I would rather distribute my Venture Pitch just to those specifically assigned to review it. How ever, should they send me a copy of their review by email or will that be shared with the entire group?

Hi Shawn –
That’s fine if there are elements of your Venture Pitch which you don’t want public disclosure of for intellectual property (IP) reasons. Most reviews don’t delve into IP, but I won’t argue with additional caution. Please ask your reviewers to also copy their reviews to me when they forward them to you.
Cheers,
David

Hi David,
Should I send both the Venture Pitch and Elevator Pitch to the Reviewers? Or the Elevator pitch has to be posted here in the forum?

Hi Shawn –
Post both if that’s convenient. The elevator pitch is a minimum; the venture pitch is something you can control the distribution of .

Hi David,
I ran into some major difficulties with my video converter that I use to convert powerpoint into videos. It was working when I did my test slides a week ago, but everything is out of sync now. I don’t know if I would be able to fix the problem before midnight. Is it okay if I send you the PowerPoint Show instead? I am not sure how to post this onto the blog 🙁 Sorry for the inconvenience. Just discovered this when I was reviewing the videos today.
