  • “People want to see themselves”
  • “Segment the heck out of those [testimonials]”
  • “Take control of the customer…serve [them] a slice of humble pie”
  • “Everyone has a different pain but the same issue is what we’re talking about which is time”
  • “Treat others how you want to be treated”
  • “Advertise. Capture. Sell. The end.”
  • “I advertise as if I won’t be able to do it tomorrow”
  • “[No advertising] in the world is more profitable…than YouTube pre-roll”
  • “If you client doesn’t win, you don’t win”
