Highlights:
"Paid advertising should be your number one generator for business. Where most business owners get it wrong is they pump the brakes on this once they get too much business”
"Mentorship and understanding marketing are key for us."
"If we increase the price 10% we're not losing 10% right? Which is perfect, like and, and that's a key thing for anybody to understand, that's watching this or listening to this, is just how valuable an additional dollar is to the business owner versus the customer."
