Most entrepreneurs today don’t remember the Dot-Com bubble of 1995 or the Dot-Com crash that followed in 2000. As a reminder, the Dot Com bubble was a five-year period from August 1995 (the Netscape IPO ) when there was a massive wave of experiments on the then-new internet, in commerce, entertainment, nascent social media, and search.

In 1995 Netscape IPO’d and browsers started to become more prevalent. Some IdeaLab successes / brand names aside from Overture & CitySearch? IdeaLab has a philosophy that if they can get a centralized group of expert staff to help with legal, accounting, recruiting, PR, etc. That gave Google a huge cost advantage.

What exactly is going to be the name of your business? Whatever the inspiration or relation may be, the naming of your business is one of the most important parts of becoming a CEO. My company name is 3 Leaf Tea. The name is from when tea leaves get picked there’s often one two or three leaves and a bud.

What exactly is going to be the name of your business? Whatever the inspiration or relation may be, the naming of your business is one of the most important parts of becoming a CEO. 1- Our names. 3- My name+services we offer. My last name also happens to be “Way,” so it was an easy lead to “Way Solutions.”

The Golden Age (1970 – 1995): Build a growing business with a consistently profitable track record (after at least 5 quarters,) and go public when it’s time. Dot.com Bubble ( 1995-2000): “ Anything goes” as public markets clamor for ideas, vague promises of future growth, and IPOs happen absent regard for history or profitability.

As late as November 1995, Bill Gates wrote a book entitled The Road Ahead in which he predicted that the Information Super Highway would rule the future. In 1996, there was no social networking, no video, no search that worked, no RSS, and no Twitter to name a few. I am naming your car ‘La Bamba.’”

I have published many of these PR Tips before. It was in 1995 when I realized the power of personal branding. I worked in Rome on a small team with a really smart young woman named Elisabetta. Initially I thought it was too long of a name for a blog.When I looked at the competition it as AVC.com and Feld.com.
