FAVORITE QUOTES IN HOW TO ACHIEVE FREEDOM IN YOUR BUSINESS
“The more you grow, the more hats you can take off.” -Faith Parker
“I shine a light on them (employees) and they get to share. They feel supported and they feel a part of a community. I want them to do that for our customers, so I think it’s important I do that for them.” -Faith Parker
“Hire slow, fire fast. You know when it’s not a good fit. Don’t drag it on, pull that band-aid off and move on because there is someone out there that is going to be a better fit for that position.” -Faith Parker
