I spent the weekend working on the costume store. Visitors started emailing me last week asking when they could purchase a Halloween costume here at Funtober. The answer is: Now! The store isn’t perfect. My list of things to improve is long. But: “If you aren’t embarrassed by what you launch with, then you waited […]
I started Funtober to ensure that I have more fun in my life. And I’ve been working pretty hard on the website in the past few weeks. Halloween is less than 90 days away now. So I spent the past weekend on the beach in Ocean City, Maryland for a little rest and relaxation. While […]
Happy Fourth of July! Put on your red, white and blue so that we can celebrate the holiday in style!
I realized a few weeks ago that I was going to need a cool Funtober t-shirt to garner attention among the other startups at a local meetup. So I’ve been brainstorming ideas. And my friend jumped on the bandwagon and gave me a push in the right direction with her favorite idea. I’m still working […]

I’ve made a few small changes to Funtober this morning that I thought I would share with you quickly.

You may wonder how I plan to make money on Funtober.com. At least that’s one of the first questions that my parents and friends ask about the website. It’s a legitimate question. In the past, I’ve generally used affiliate marketing offers to generate revenue on my websites. But I’ve convinced myself that it is time […]
There’s only 107 days until the official start of Funtober – September 15th. I expect the 3.5 months will go by extremely fast. Yesterday, as I was thinking about the different ways I want to market this website online, I decided that it would be a good idea to sponsor some of the activities happening […]
Last week, I posted about how easy it was to register a Delaware LLC. But as I went to order a virtual office setup from my registered agent, I learned that I had not investigated the decision to select my registered agent thoroughly enough. Despite advertising their mail forwarding and business presence address service in […]
My friends fairly frequently ask why there’s no header here on Funtober. They don’t know that it is called a header. But they know that it is missing. I won’t get a chance to defend the design choice to online visitors. But maybe they will stumble across this blog post, as you have. And to […]
