When blockchain technology first emerged, most people saw it as the bedrock that ushered in a new world of decentralized finance. And while it is that, it is much more as it heralded the coming of Web3.0. This is the latest iteration of the internet and is essentially a fully decentralized, transparent, and immutable set of tools that are transforming how we use the internet.

With the emergence of several cryptocurrencies, NFTs, DOAs, dApps, and even the metaverse, we understand that Web3.0’s transformation stretches far beyond finance. One place it is already proving to be a new lease of life is entertainment. The creator economy is finding ways to utilize

These days, many small business owners are not aware of the differences in marketing vs. sales. Most business owners understand sales, of course, but marketing carries a bit of mystique for them, and branding can be even more obscure to entrepreneurs.

There is a constant tension between marketing vs. sales departments in larger companies due to largely varying workplace goals. Each has a different agenda and target, which smaller enterprises tend to merge…

The Two Can Be Intertwined

However, they are so intimately entangled with each other that people oftentimes don’t recognize the difference between the two concepts. Unquestionably, in small businesses, the same person typically performs both marketing and sales responsibilities.

I strongly urge you to explore other options first, however. Have a conversation with your boss or with HR. This isn’t just for the benefit of the organization, but for your benefit as well. You deserve to feel good about the work that you do, to feel proud of your contributions, to feel seen and respected. It’s normal and even healthy for work to challenge us at times, but it shouldn’t drain you.

The Thompson Denver opened its doors less than a year ago. But the property has already established itself as a premiere downtown destination for food and drink—in addition to luxury lodging. Anchoring all of that fine flavor is lobby restaurant Chez Maggy, a Parisian-inspired bistro conceived by celebrity chef Ludo Lefebvre. On top of that (literally) a sixth floor speakeasy called Reynard Social is delivering imbibers high-end cocktails in a spacious lounge backdropped by the Rocky Mountains. And for New Year’s they’re showcasing all of it with a progressive concept that’ll catapult guests from the Mile High City to the City of Light.

“Midnight In Paris” is a $1400 package inclusive of accommodations for two, a five-course tasting menu for two at Chez Maggy, and five hours of DJ-fueled frivolity at Reynard Social—with free champagne (and late
