Welcome to my blog on the experience of entrepreneurship.  My name is Nicole Toomey Davis and I co-founded DoBox in 1999 with my two co-founders, Brad and Matt.  We raised our first $1million in January of 2000, grew our business and sold it to a public firm in March of 2002.  If you plot DoBox against the stock market of the period you can see why I say that "we skied the avalanche."

This blog is dedicated to Frank, Mike and Rich, my Board and my mentors, and to the DoBox Team, every day was a privilege. 

Most entries will be short insights that I have gathered over the years about entrepreneurship.  Today's center on building a strong team.

• Manage Team Dynamics (don't let it get away from you)
• Actively Create the Culture you Want!
• Decide what you want alongside your business plan
  
• Communicate, Communicate, Communicate!
• Honesty really IS the best policy (especially if the news is bad!)
