iChat with the Youngrens!

There are some people in the world who are just remarkable. You know the kind… giving, selfless, kind, considerate and you just feel energized when you’re with them.

It is our pleasure to work with Jeff & Erin Youngren. You may know them from OSP, from the SDPUG, Twitter (@jeffyoungren | @erinyoungren) or any other place photographers can be found.

If you’ve ever wondered how you can take off to say… ASIA for TWO MONTHS while still running a successful San Diego-based business, you best tune in to this one! That’s right, these crazy kids were in SINGAPORE when we did the interview.

We covered so many topics in this interview, it should be pay-per-view! Hear about their roles in business operations, smart outsourcing, and of course how using Colorati has empowered them to take their business to another level.
