Herman says business has picked up considerably since being nominated as have the number of engagements where he's been asked to speak. He usually speaks three to five times a quarter and now has six gigs for the month of December alone. And he says another round of funding is in the works, on top of this July's $17 million.

At the same time, Herman wants to "play around" and look for new opportunities in the "places where marketing, technology, and entertainment meet."
