Quotes from this episode:

• “When I started making calls on the vending side, it was just a local sale, and I realized, “Hey, I can do really well on this… I'm just going to bet on myself.” (9:38)
• “I would recommend getting into sales and learning some processes and then jumping in entrepreneurship.” (13:35)
• “We're talking about growing corporate versus entrepreneur. Those are lessons that you learn a lot in corporate… A lot of people, they don't get that. They miss that fuse, and that stuff is important. If somebody calls you and you missed the call, you lost that business forever, especially on an SMB side. ” (26:58)
• “The general rule of thumb that I say to people is buy nice, offer low.” (32:53)
