QUOTES
- "I think part of it is that when you grow up in a different state where you're different and people start to talk about you in different ways, you mature faster, you understand life a little differently. And I think that does prepare you for an outcome to where, when your true self finally comes out and it finally shines, you become somebody that is truly successful." - Blake Elsner
- "I love the game of entrepreneurship in that case, because it's like, all right, you just threw something at me. You just hit me in the gut. All right, let's get back up. Let's go." - Brad Starnes
- "Don't look at the price of a marketing plan like yourself because you got to look at the bottom line of what's going to come. And that's success and leads and leads turn into dollars." - Blake Elsner
