Chase Reeves is a weird mix of business, design, marketing, tomfoolery, cocktails, marketing, design, flahoolick and more cocktails. Most of his friends say he’s the most indelicate person they know. Through his work at Think Traffic and Fizzle.co, he helps (literally) thousands of entrepreneurs find their creative habit (and avoid burnout). He’s got a soft spot for the working dad and man because, frankly, he could do a lot better at both. If you see him at the bar, ask him about a guy called Howard Gossage.

Success Quote
- “When you are 22 years old, it’s hard to think in 22-year increments since that’s as long as you’ve been alive. But it’s really important to view your life as an entrepreneur as a long journey that consists of many short-term cycles. It’s relatively easy to focus on the short-term cycle, such as the 90 days of an accelerator program; it’s a lot harder to think about the next decade and how what you are doing today impacts where you want to be ten years from now.” – Brad Feld
