Tweetable Quotes:

“Your website essentially is you in the digital world. And so if you're not taking your top sales conversations that you're having vocally, then you're missing an opportunity to have your voice in another place.”

“For-profit can quickly become about the transaction if you're not careful. We're nonprofit, it's about the impact that you're making on people's lives.”

“I don't believe that business and family are separate. You have seasons of it, whereas sometimes it takes more emphasis on other. But one does not go out of existence.”
