And I will be messaging you directly here soon to pick your brain a bit more. I think you may be on to something regarding a proposal to a company I love, the worst that can happen is they say no.

Did Rudy have a "day job" before he got off the ground with Trulia? Have your reached out to the social media guys outside the real estate industry; Chris Brogan, for instance? I certainly understand the frustrations of needing something now. And yet, "corporate" positions may not be the best fit for your entrepreneurial skill set.

You do have mad skillz! I am honored that you would consider me a role model. But I have to say, that I am lucky to have this opportunity to represent Trulia - it's been amazing thus far. Trulia is company that gets it. I suggest you search for a company that you love and see if they are hiring - be proactive. If they are not, make them a proposal on why their company would need someone like you. Show them what they are missing. Having met you in person and having followed you online for sometime now, I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone. In fact, I already did on Linkedin :) If you ever need me for a recommendation, I'm here for you Nick! I wish you all the best, You can do it!!!
