Cotton Rohrscheib

I've been an entrepreneur my entire life and have been blessed to have been associated with hundreds of startups and projects throughout my career. A few years ago I started offloading many of my business interests to spend more time w/ my family and retool my focus toward the agricultural industry, ultimately I landed at Farmers Business Network, Inc. w/ a great team of people w/ shared mission / vision and the rest is history! I still operate my personal website & blog occasionally on topics of interest to me including; parenting, agriculture, technology, and whatever else comes my direction! My blog, cotton.buzz, is the product of over 20yrs worth of content, photos, podcasts, videos, etc., and all of the content I produce is mine personally, and only represent my views and/or opinions on topics and do not represent any of the businesses or associations I'm affiliated with.

November 23, 2009 by Cotton Rohrscheib Leave a Comment

While everyone is out spreading the gospel of social media I have found myself spreading a slightly different message lately. Now, don’t get me wrong, social media is an awesome tool for running a marketing campaign, I am on board completely with this, but it is just that, a tool. Social Media is not the […]

Reflecting on #RefreshCA User Group 2009

November 23, 2009 by Cotton Rohrscheib Leave a Comment

As 2009 is starting to wind down, I was looking back at some of the goals I set for myself in 2009. One of these goals was to do a lot more business networking. Since my partners primarily operate from our corporate headquarters in Batesville and I live in Conway, I primarily work from home. […]

Thoughts on Mark Martin, Jimmie Johnson, NASCAR

November 22, 2009 by Cotton Rohrscheib Leave a Comment

Okay, so I watched the race yesterday with the hope tucked away in the back of my mind that there might be some off-the-wall chance that Jimmie Johnson and the 48 team would slip up. Maybe a blow-out or engine failure, something that wouldn’t be serious, but enough to make him finish up in the […]

This morning I had someone call me and ask me my thoughts on Facebook Marketplace. I remember reading about it but hadn’t honestly spent very much time in the app so I went out and took a look. I have to admit that I think the idea is genius, Facebook could do really well from […]
