Legendary Quotes:
“ Every decision, consciously or subconsciously, is about this one thing. This one thing that runs our lives, whether we like it or not. It's status and social positioning.” – Howie Chan
“You need to understand the status game your audience is playing. Every industry, niche, and audience are playing a game. And if you misread it, you lose trust. Simple as that. But if you align with it, you can create this unshakable connection.” – Howie Chan
“ Your job isn't to change that [status] game, it's to understand it and position your solution, your product, or whatever call to action that you want to make as the key to helping [your target audience] win it.” – Howie Chan
