“The only differentiator in the game is your passion and your hustle.”

The best marketing strategy ever: CARE

Do what makes you happy. Keep it simple. Do the research. Work hard. Look ahead.

Storytelling is by far the most underrated skill in business.

For business, our internet love affair was a gift from the gods.

Skills are cheap. Passion is priceless.

I influence anybody who is able to get through the chaos of my first impression.

Make every decision based on your last years of life instead of your next 10.

If you do not care about your end user immensely, especially in the next few years, your brand will die.

The incredible brand awareness and bottom-line profits achievable through social media marketing require hustle, heart, sincerity, constant engagement, long-term commitment, and most of all, artful and strategic storytelling.

Social media is not a fad because it’s human.

Company culture is the backbone of any successful organization.

The chef that grew up with the grandma who cooks tends to always beat the chef that went to the culinary institute. It’s in the blood.

Company culture is a religion, not a sermon.

Content is king, but marketing is queen, and runs the household.

On Facebook, the definition of great content is not the content that makes the most sales, but the content that people most want to share with others.

Good salespeople sell value and social media is the best place to find this value because of its transparency.

We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created.

In our work and in our living, we must recognize that difference is a reason for celebration and growth, rather than a reason for destruction.

The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything.

That was a difference between black slaves and white indentured servants. Black slaves were usually not allowed to keep their names, but were given new names by their owners.

You know the difference between a tornado and divorce in the south? Nothing! Someone is losing a trailer.

I think that there’s a difference between getting your heart broken and getting let down.

There are three classes of people: those who see. Those who see when they are shown. Those who do not see.

We must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives.
