It's time for another Guitarpreneur Interview video! In this video, I'll be talking with business owner and creator of Vibe Strings, a string company available exclusively on Amazon.com.

There's a lot to cover in the video, so I won't bother spelling everything out in here except to say our apologies for any lag in the signal during the interview.  Fran lives in Ireland and in the evening hours many people are using the Internet at once which causes these types of technical difficulties.

Be sure to watch the entire video for details on a special giveaway on Vibe Strings I'm hosting next week! 

So without further ado, here are the talking points...

General questions:

- Why the name "Vibe" strings?
- Why are Vibe Strings only available on Amazon?
- The packaging says that Vibe Strings has been around for 40 years, yet I've only just recently heard of them.  Is it because they were known or owned by a previous name or string company?
- General questions concerning claims on the packaging.
- How did people order your strings before Amazon came along?

Guitarpreneur Questions (25:44):

- What's it like owning/running a guitar string company?
- How many years have you been an entrepreneur?
- What are some tips for time management?
- What are some productivity hacks/ideas you've learned being a business owner? (1% Thinking/Planning, 99% Action/Execution: "Trust the Process.")
- What is your process for working towards and achieving goals for the company? (Working Backwards: "Begin with the end in mind.")

In the Works:

- What future products are you planning on rolling out in 2014 and beyond (coated strings, electric guitar strings, strings for other instruments, etc.)?
- What direction do you see Vibe Strings heading from here?

Closing:

- What's the best way to reach you?
- Talk about your special discount link and how to obtain it by purchasing BGE webisodes.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.  Here's hoping you learn something new that will help you along your journey.
