"If you really want to dominate the competition and make big bucks, you've got to be the best. Do that, be that, and no one will be able to touch you. With one exception.

Business
"When I hear people debate the ROI of social media? It makes me remember why so many business fail. Most businesses are not playing the marathon. They're playing the sprint. They're not worried about lifetime value and retention. They're worried about short-term goals."
