This week in Musk: Under the Muskan Sun
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Only a man who juggles as many “rich guy” projects as Elon Musk could have an entire roundup dedicated to his musky-self -- unfortunately, it can’t all be good news.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
From couches, to an ill-timed hiatus, to big hole financing, it’s time to brush up on this week’s Musk-up.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Musk-up: The Boring Co. raises some cash
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
According to
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
SEC filings
</a>
, Musk’s tunnel-digging/flamethrower company (think about that for a second) has raised almost $113m in venture capital funding.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
What’s more, Musk himself provided more than
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$100m
</a>
of it (the other 10% covered by early employees). ’Cuz where billionaires are going, they don’t need outside investors.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Musk-down: Tesla puts a hold on Model 3 production
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
According to Buzzfeed, Tesla is
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
temporarily
</a>
shutting down production of its model 3 sedan… again. This time it’s expected to last up to 5 days.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
A spokesperson maintains that the shutdown was planned to “improve automation” and address potential bottlenecking, but
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
missing
</a>
yet another production target could mean a loss of investor confidence.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Musk… meh: The internet just bought a billionaire a couch
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Yup, after publicly complaining about the ratty couch he sleeps on during his all nighters at the Tesla factory, more than
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
72
</a>
people donated to a GoFundMe page dedicated to buying Elon Musk a new couch.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
According to
<em>
TechCrunch,
</em>
more than $1k was raised as of publication to get the almost
<em>
$20 Billionaire
</em>
a new bedtime sofa -- a very socially responsible donation and in no way offensive to those working extra Postmates shifts so they can afford a used couch off Craigslist.

T-Mobile fined $40m for faking ring sounds on calls that never went through
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
T-Mobile’s been doing a lot of
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
sh*t talking on other carriers
</a>
lately, but they should probably work on keeping their own corner clean.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The FCC just slapped the US mobile “un-carrier” with a
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$40m fine
</a>
after it found that the company was supplementing calls made in rural areas with fake ringing sounds to cover up spotty connections and “cause callers to believe that the phone [was] ringing at the called party’s premises.”
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
So, basically one step up from them having a T-Mobile employee just make “beep boop” sounds on the other end.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Apparently, it was a common practice until a few years ago
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The FCC created new laws to ban the practice in 2014, and T-Mobile
<em>
said
</em>
they’d cleaned up their act. But guess what?
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
They lied
</a>
.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Users started complaining, and when the FCC looked into it, they found T-mobile has been violating the rule for years -- covering up poor service on hundreds of millions of calls.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Getting a good connection in rural America is still a huge issue
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Many people in the rural US still
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
don’t have access to broadband internet
</a>
or
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
quality cell service
</a>
.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The bad service is a big problem, and -- as the FCC points out
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
in its order
</a>
-- one that not only cuts families off from their city-slicker relatives, but also negatively impacts rural businesses, and can delay public safety communications.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Yet, despite the FCC’s case resting on T-Mobile harming consumers, users aren’t the ones receiving the lawsuit money -- that’d be the US Treasury.

Starbucks will close for bias training due to viral video -- leaving $16.7m in the coffee pot

</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
After a video of police unjustifiably removing 2 black men from a Starbucks went viral last week, CEO Kevin Johnson
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
declared
</a>
all of the company’s American stores will close on the afternoon of May 29 for “racial-bias education” training.

</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
To recap, a 45-second video caused the CEO of a Fortune 500 company to drop what he was doing, fly across the country to do damage control,
<em>
and

order a complete shutdown of operations, all in a matter of days.

Now, Starbucks will pay a steep price to restore its image -- based on 2017

</a>
, closing their 8,222 company stores for an afternoon will cost them over $16.7m -- on top of the cost of training 175k employees in racial-bias prevention.

Big brands are paying big $$ for social media usernames, and hackers have taken notice
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Social media. People use it, companies need it -- and they’re willing to do just about anything to make sure they get that @ they’re after.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Welcome to the “username economy” -- a new scheme where web lizards (or “subversive marketers” to quote the euphemistic

) flip username handles by stalking social media profiles to acquire potentially lucrative @identities and resell them at exorbitant markups.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Shady, yes. Illegal? Not exactly -- unless, that it is, it’s stolen.

<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
As the username economy proves its worth (some companies have offered upwards of
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$50k
</a>
to acquire a desired username), hackers have begun stealing and selling handles -- and they’ll do it by any means necessary.

The woman who cold-emailed Steve Jobs
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
There’s a Hustle Con speaker we’re insanely excited about:
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Katia Beauchamp
</a>
.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Not only did she:
</p>
<ul style="margin: 0; padding-bottom: 14px; padding-left: 24px;">
<li style="line-height: 120%; padding: 4px 0;">
Come up with the idea for Birchbox in 48 hours
</li>
<li style="line-height: 120%; padding: 4px 0;">
Raise nearly $87m
</li>
<li style="line-height: 120%; padding: 4px 0;">
Build a company with hundreds of employees and 1m+ subscribers
</li>
<li style="line-height: 120%; padding: 4px 0;">
Revolutionize the $500B beauty industry
</li>
</ul>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
She did something arguably even more impressive -- she cold-emailed Steve Jobs. Yes… THAT Steve Jobs.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
And she got a response. Yep, seriously
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
See, when Katia got to Harvard Business School, she and her classmates got discounts to get IBM-issued computers. But Katia was an Apple gal. So, she emailed Jobs, explaining the situation and suggesting that Jobs offer the same discount for Mac computers to the students.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Within minutes, Katia received an email from Jobs’ assistant… with a discount code for the exact same amount as the IBM student discount.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Clearly, the woman knows cold email.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
And she’s used the same cold email strategy to take Birchbox from a school project to a $485m company with over 1m subscribers.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
In 65 days, Katia will be speaking at
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Hustle Con
</a>
, teaching her cold email formula.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">

Every hustle deserves a champion. Here’s ours...
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Your business may be small, but your dreams are big -- like opening bell IPO big.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
That’s why you need a customer relationship management tool, AKA CRM. It’s the integrated, blood-pumping life force that drives everything you do. You know,
<em>
the heart
</em>
.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">

Introducing Salesforce Essentials, a CRM tailored for the underdogs
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
If you think Salesforce is just for the big guys, think again.
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Salesforce Essentials
</a>
is a CRM tool built specifically for small businesses, startups, basement-dreamers, and webcafe wallflowers. It’s designed for the hustle --
<em>
your
</em>
hustle.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Salesforce took its most powerful enterprise tools and packaged them for small business. Founders get the tools they need without the frills -- and at a ‘
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
scrappy budget
</a>
’ price.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Plus, Salesforce makes learning Essentials breezy with in-depth walkthroughs at every step. It’s like an education that actually pays dividends (sorry MFA grads).
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
And the best part?
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
It’s scalable
</a>
. So when your business rockets like a hockey stick, you’re covered from the coworking space to the executive suite.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
