I'm Rob Schultz, and this is Truebluetitan VII

Who is Rob Schultz?

I am a 26 year old professional that is currently seeking a full-time employment opportunity within the Pittsburgh area. My qualifications are available for review here.

When I was 14, before companies like Coca Cola & Dell had staked their claim on the Internet, I was teaching computer/Internet classes. At 17, I founded my first start-up and have been working for myself in one fashion or another ever since.

Friends would describe me as someone who has a passion for life and works his butt off to get what he wants. Currently, I own a growing start-up company and can usually be found working remotely at a nearby Starbucks sipping a venti something-or-another. I'm on the verge of releasing some kick-ass web apps that might just put my partners and I on the map. The future holds a lot of uncertainties for me, but one thing continues to remain the same:

Truebluetitan is the driving force behind everything I do.

What is Truebluetitan?

Truebluetitan is more than a domain name or a combination of random words. Defined as "one of prodigious size, strength, and achievement with inflexible faith and integrity", Truebluetitan has become my guiding light, providing direction towards future goals. When I'm not designing websites or providing SEO and SEM consulting to clients I turn to Truebluetitan and document the trials and tribulations that I encounter on my never-ending quest to becoming an Internet Entrepreneur.

The website as you see it now is the seventh release of Truebluetitan, and I intend to use it to provide greater insight into my projects (the ones I'm allowed to talk about anyway) and dive into the details of what it takes to start your own business and nourish it's growth.

In my eyes, I haven't "made it" yet, and as such encourage all of you to lend your insight as I travel down this path. I could certainly use some help from time to time!

Why Stick Around?

Truebluetitan is here to be a motivator for me, and for you. I know that there are a lot of people out there that want to start their own business, but are afraid to take the leap. There is, and always will be something, that is holding you back from taking the ever important first step. I jumped into the entrepreneurial waters with feet first and have learned a lot of lessons the hard way, but I'm still here. I haven't drowned, and I won't. Neither will you.

Outdated Online Business Registration (3)

It’s been nearly 8 years since I last registered a business name. Unfortunately, it’s going to take me a little longer.

The 4-Hour Workweek (4)

The sun peaks through the windshield of my car every morning as I begin my long commute to work. Every evening the sun waves goodnight through my rearview mirror as I leave the office building. I work over 40 hours a week. Unfortunately, this is not incredibly uncommon to those in the American workforce. What I find even more bothersome is that too many Americans wear this as a badge of honor, a sign of success amongst their peers. If you are like me and would prefer a different path then read on.
