Our Favorite Quotes:

• "The biggest challenge we have in business is to take negative behavior and make it positive." - Mark Bischoff

• "I've heard business owners talk about feeling like they're marooned on an island all by themselves trying to figure this stuff out. I can't tell you how many times they've gotten to the other side of that and said, 'Man, this would have been so much easier if I just had somebody else on the island with me.'" - Rob Schulz

• "Bulletproof brands aren't as bulletproof as they used to be. Even if your systems are excellent, if you're depending on key contacts or key clients to remain in place, you know those folks change in a modern environment." - Mark Bischoff
