QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE
“Unlike any other form of marketing where it’s all about getting yourself in front of the right sources of people, referral marketing is what we call the best form because it’s not costing you a cent to be able to get other people passing you new business and new opportunities.”
“Partner to create win wins.”
“I don’t care about what you do or how you do it; whether you think you’re the best is irrelevant. What I care about is do I like you and trust you and actually want to help you?”
“So the right question isn’t “tell me more about your business” or “tell me what you do in business”, it’s just simply “tell me more about YOU.””
