Last weekend Clara and I had the opportunity of doing some charitable services by helping scan tickets at the Kenny Chesney concert at Lambeau Field.While scanning tickets, we witnessed some of the worst that Green Bay had to offer.
We were working the Fleet Farm gate and probably saw, no less than 18 people get ejected from the concert. Some escorted, some carried – all intoxicated. We saw one guy get cuffed and stuffed, we saw one get maced. Not a pleasant sight.
The a really good friend said this – “at least you got to spend the time together” and that set me back a bit. You know she is absolutely right. This was a major teaching moment for me and I’m glad I was a part of it.
THANK YOU for your comment and helping me see this.
Hey kids, It’s Tommy and for today’s TommyLog Tech I want to welcome my fellow Verizon friend Michelle to the TommyLog studios. Michelle was passing through town and I thought, Lets talk about ways we can solve problems using our Verizon phones. I’m sporting the DROID Turbo by Motorola and Michelle is using her trusty Samsung Galaxy Note 3, both provided by our good friends at Verizon.
If you’re looking for inexpensive help or unique gift ideas you should check out Fiverr.com. Michelle and I both have the app downloaded on our Verizon mobile devices, which makes browsing, buying and selling incredibly easy no matter where you are.
Fiverr sellers can offer any service or product (called a gig) and the price is capped at $5.00 per gig (sellers can offer add-on options for an additional $5.00).
Using Fiverr is slightly different than using a Virtual Assistant because you’re buying a specific one-time gig from an individual. At just $5.00 per gig it’s a low-risk way to get focused help from sellers around the world.
There are so many things offered on the site that you can (and will) get so sucked in! Some items are practical – such as getting a logo or a YouTube intro designed. Others are more whimsical – such as getting a photo of your name drawn in the sand.
Michelle first started ordering gigs on the site back in 2010 and it’s grown exponentially including being much easier to navigate by the type of service you’re looking for. One of the things she enjoys most is seeing how creative sellers are with the ways they can earn money.
I had my TommyLog Tech logo created for $5. A few dollars more for high res layered and vector artwork as well as my YouTube info – another $5. It’s pretty amazing what you can get done for a mere five bucks.
As with most things perform your own due diligence and read through the reviews, check the typical response rate, on-time delivery and other seller data available on the profiles.
Is Fiverr.com Tommy Approved? You bet it is – 100% Tommy Approved…Michelle Approved too!

Emma had a really neat experience at summer school yesterday. There was this girl, a few years younger than Emma who was sad to be leaving her mom. Emma reached out to her and made her feel safe. Emma set such a great example.
Tommy is participating in an entrepreneurial event called Business World held at St. Norbert’s College in WI. Business World gives high school students the opportunity to test their knowledge of business and economics and further their understanding of our free enterprise system. Students form companies, create and market products, tour local businesses and network with business mentors and fellow students.
Tommy welcomes his friend Michelle to the TommyLog Studios to talk about BW and what influenced them to get their entrepreneurial spirit.
