The Pied Piper team goes looking in all the wrong places for a logo. Erlich Bachman recruits a street artist by the name of Chuy to get some edge added to the brand. Bachman arranges a deal with Chuy for $10,000 to create the logo. The total budget for Pied Piper is $200,000. In reality the logo should probably not cost five percent of the total operating budget. Another issue that is brought up in episode five is that Richard had submitted an entry for the TechCrunch Disrupt competition, and forgot to withdraw the entry. For startups

The contrast is between traditional and new media combining and reforming the way consumers find entertainment.

In the fourth episode of Silicon Valley Richard signs several documents with a new lawyer played by Ben Feldman. The show brings up incorporating the business in Delaware. When researching why investors would want to incorporate the business in that state, I found out that they do this to often register the company as a C corporation.  If you are a startup that wants to acquire funding, and is ready to be incorporated, look into options in Delaware, Nevada, and your home state. It is wise to layout options when making a major business decision. Richard experiences the

The 2017 Hangout Music Festival has officially sold out of tickets via their box office, but weekend passes are still available to purchase. StubHub has one of the largest markets for reselling tickets. I do not support reselling tickets, but in this case, the tickets are close to the same value that they were being sold via the main box office. The shuttle passes on another hand are priced way too high on the secondary market. Scan over options for 3 Day General Admission Passes via StubHub. The festival recently replaced the cancellation of Frank Ocean with Phoenix. It

During the last episode, Richard and his team were confronted with the dilemma of gathering and producing paperwork for his business partner. The team at Pied Piper is also faced with another company having the name 'Pied Piper' registered with the Secretary of State. This causes Richard to have to use his negotiating skills to acquire the name legally. Along with the poor choice of Pied Piper for a business name, the team has to deal with trying to possibly rebrand and rename the company. Identify for early startups is hard to establish without proper planning. Preparation
