Our Favorite Quotes:

• “We all know, in order to make money, you need to spend money. But we’ve seen time and time again, if you spend too much on the wrong things, you can go out of business really, really quickly.” – Courtney 
• “If you see someone who’s also alone, go up to them and say, ‘what brings you to this event’ and start the conversation that way because a lot of other people do go to events alone, and they’re also looking for people to talk to but someone has got to start the conversation. And this is coming from a shy introvert. If I could do it, you could, too.”       – Courtney
• “Everything that has to be executed in a business takes a lot longer than you think. So build in that buffer time and those additional resources.” – Stephanie
