Quotes:

[8:10] “ I remember reading it on an airplane. I came home, got my accountant and bookkeeper together, and we sat down and revamped our entire financial picture.”
[23:21] “Yeah, I think it's all about over; communicating everything before you make the decision. Partnerships are marriages, in almost every sense of the word, they are legal unions…and so you need to have a way to get into that, which should be based on shared values that are authentic to both of you.”
[36:54] “Don't wrestle with the ideas [once] they've been proven out, just implement them...don't study on [Profit First] for too long, just get it into place, and start letting it benefit you, and growing your business through that.”
