Re-branding Seattle 2.0

By Marcelo Calbucci

 

    It comes a point on every website life that it needs a re-branding. And sometimes, the sooner you do it, the better it is.

 

    Seattle 2.0 is just about 9 weeks old and I didn't know what it was going to become. Since I've been reading a ton of Marketing books on branding, positioning and image, I just learned something new and I need to practice it.

 

    Starting today we are re-positioning Seattle 2.0 from being all things "Web 2.0", all things "startup" and all things "entrepreneur" to being a site from Entrepreneurs to Entrepreneurs on the technology field in the Seattle area.

 

    Here is the new tentative tagline:

 

"Helping Entrepreneurs build the next great tech business"

 

    If you have other ideas send it to me (or leave a comment).

 

    For now, the list of things that we will talk about will be:

 

  • Events for Entrepreneurs and Startups in Seattle;
  • Jobs and funding opportunities for Entrepreneurs;
  • Announcements from Startups / Entrepreneurs;
  • Resources for entrepreneurs (from book recommendation to list of VCs to list of sites with great content for entrepreneurs)
  • Stories from the battlefield;
  • Networking opportunities;

 

    Maybe someday we will have a new logo (any designer willing to do some pro-bono?) and a new layout.

 

    For now, I'm looking for 1, 2 or 3 other entrepreneurs that want to participate on the Seattle 2.0 blog.
