[edit]Hello, I want to be fully transparent and disclose my potential COI - as well as the reason why I chose to still submit this article.
COI disclosure: I have worked with this company in the past as an independent contractor - and I was paid to write this article.
Why did I still submit?
Encyclopedia has always been used to help people obtain knowledge and clarity. Today, that clarity might include differentiating between notable companies and brands. In this case, there are a large number of notable websites, companies and brands which use the word 'Geek' (i.e., geek.com, geeksquad, etc.). This can create confusion. This article was submitted to help people make a clear distinction between these sites and brands. For that reason, I did my best to keep the language neutral while only giving information that can be found online through reliable sources like Entrepreneur Magazine, NJ Biz, Ami Magazine—with the exception of information about human experiences that could only come from the founder himself (i.e., the origin story/motivation for founding). If there is anything you (the editor) feel is promotional in any way, please let me know. I'm happy to work on it and remove whatever is necessary to ensure it becomes a helpful resource that brings clarity to others and feels like it came from a true Wikipedian.
Thank you!
P.S. I'm reposting this here because it appears my 'Talk' message ended up in the wrong place after it moved this article to draft. Within that, I was given some info that said I may have posted this in the wrong place. Sorry if I did! I'm new to Wikipedia and trying to figure out the platform.
