Noteworthy quotes from this episode


“What I've come to understand and appreciate is that branding is the perception that your audience has about you and your company. It's not the company that creates the brand, the company influences the brand.”


“When you don't have products to humanize, then you need to be human yourself.”


“Your message is one of the easiest ways for you to connect with the people who really will vibe with you.”


“The messaging becomes more about your audience than it is about you.”


“I always favor letting people do what they do best, and then hiring everybody else for the rest.”
