Quotes
[11:25] "With integrators, it's a lot of keeping a pulse on what the team is doing, what the business has the capacity to do, so that the goals set as the business owner, are actually being hit."
[5:30] "I love dreams, I love working with visionaries who have big dreams, but I also want to make sure that dream is realistic and actually happens, and that's what integration has allowed me to get to do with my client's businesses."
[22:05] "Time and money are the foundation and this is actually another mistake that a lot of entrepreneurs make when setting a goal, because you are a visionary and you go for the dream first."
[32:35] "You have to figure out what's your zone of genius in the business, like what are the things that only you can do, those are the things that you should be doing and it is worth it to delegate out."
