Quotables

“If you really wanna scale a business, you have to look at efficiencies and leverage and get people involved that a lone wolf is just not gonna do it.”

“I think people that have the “no financing” excuse, I think that’s only because they haven’t researched this to a point where they understand it and if you understand it, it becomes a tool in your tool box.”

“Education is great, networking is a must, but taking action and that action, if you really wanna shortcut your start in this business, go work for a successful investor.”
