In this raw, unedited video, Evan Carmichael announces the launch of his redesigned homepage (evancarmichael.com) and outlines a new project: a rotating collection of one‑minute, daily inspirational video segments from well‑known entrepreneurs. He explains that existing entrepreneur videos are long and fragmented, making it hard to find concise motivational advice. Evan asks his audience to submit their favorite entrepreneur videos, providing exact timestamps that together total one minute per entrepreneur. Submissions must feature recognized entrepreneurs (not athletes or actors) and be linked for inclusion on his site. As a thank‑you, contributors whose clips are used will receive a personal one‑on‑one chat (phone or Google+) where Evan will give business advice. He emphasizes the potential impact of the resource—reaching millions of entrepreneurs—and urges viewers to comment or email their contributions.

Hey everyone, it's Evan. I'm fresh off a new haircut. I came back, I wanted to record this video right away. This is extremely raw video. I didn't even give it to my editor to put the usual intro, extra, all that stuff on because I wanted to talk to you today. I'm really excited. I just launched my new homepage. If you go to evancarmichael.com, you'll see what the new layout looks like, and I need your help. If you go to the homepage, you you'll see a new message. If you turn on your speakers, turn off any sound you have going on, you're going to hear an inspiring minute-long message from one of my favorite entrepreneurs, Steve Jobs. Now what I want to do is build up a collection, and here is how I hope you guys can help me out. What I want to do is create a collection of short inspirational bursts of speeches from entrepreneurs we can all look up to and respect and learn from and create a series of these segments that are 1 minute long, something that you would listen to every day. The problem is all of these videos, most entrepreneurs are not doing a great job telling their story and the inspirational advice is broken up amongst a huge number of videos or amongst a huge speech. There's like 1 good, 2 good segments in there. What I need your help is finding those great segments. What I want you to send me is your favorite entrepreneur videos, the most inspirational advice you've ever seen or ever heard on YouTube from entrepreneurs. Ideally, you can break it down, you know, from this time to this time on the video, and ideally overall the total time is 1 minute from all your favorite segments. I want to launch a tool so that when people come and visit the homepage, every time they come, they're getting hit with a different message, a different inspiring theme from a famous entrepreneur because starting the business is hard and keeping it going is hard and we need, at least I need, constant motivation and constant support to help me keep going. And so I want to build this resource. Nobody has done it before. It's a ton of work and I want your help. So for those of you, if you're interested, if you guys have liked the stuff we've created, if you've liked my videos, if you've never commented or gotten engaged anyhow, this is your chance. I need your help. Check out the homepage first, you kind of get a sense of what I'm all about, what the new plan is all about. And then check out the videos that you love online. Again, it has to be a famous entrepreneur, somebody you look up to. So I'm not looking for athletes or movie stars, I'm looking for people who are entrepreneurs, who have their own business, who are making a name for themselves. Their most inspiring clips. Break it down on each clip, what time segments I should be listening to that really serve to motivate you, something that you could listen to every day and get inspired. Ideally, it's 1 minute total per entrepreneur. For people who do this, I mean, hopefully you're doing it because you believe in the movement, you want something that's going to inspire yourself and also have an impact. This is going to be seen by millions of entrepreneurs, and so I want you to be a part of it. But as an added bonus, for anybody who does it and we use their content, we use the videos you send in, the links to the videos you send in with the time segments, I want to do a one-on-one chat. We can do it by phone, we can do it by Google+. And give you advice to help you grow your business as well. Hopefully you do it because you believe in the cause, you believe in the movement, you want something that's going to help you out and impact millions of people, but there's an added little free bonus in there as well. So again, I didn't want to give this to my editor, I wanted it out right away. I just recorded this, I just pressed record, we're popping it up on YouTube, and I really need your help, guys. So let me know. I'm excited about this resource we're going to build. We're going to impact millions of people. Let's do it together. And please leave a comment below letting me know the sections that the, the files you like with the segments, or send me an email, whatever works best for you. Please help me out. I'm so excited about this project, and I really hope that you'll join me. Thank you so much. I'll see you soon.
