They have their own opinions. They watched The Wolf of Wall Street or whatever.” 08:46 - “What we have found is that when companies spend anywhere between 5000 USD and above, they want to talk to somebody. If they're spending about $20,000, they need a constant person that they can always go back to and talk to consistently.”   Links Mentioned in this Episode: Want to learn more?
