Important Quotes:
“We help business startups or gym owners struggling to get by because that they don’t have the basic systems. Some are good in Jiu-Jitsu or MMA but they never learn sales or marketing, so there’s a huge gap but when you fill it, it’s super rewarding.”
“You’re not telling people don’t pursue your passions, but be prepared that when you get there, it may not be the dream come true that you’re hoping for.”
“Hire a mentor. Hiring a mentor can help collapse time.”
