Quotes from the show:

• “Let go of the how. You don’t know exactly how you’re going to do it, otherwise you probably would’ve done it already. You have to take some time to experiment and find what feels good.” –Elayne Fluker Support is Sexy Ep. #745
• “Don’t try to invent something or re-invent something yourself. Follow a model that someone’s already had success with.” –Kirsty Verity Support is Sexy Ep. #745
• “There’s going to be times when it doesn’t go well… but as long as you know why you’re doing it, and it’s a strong enough burning desire why, then you’re going to make it work.” –Kirsty Verity Support is Sexy Ep. #745
• “As entrepreneurs, we’ve got ADD... But we have to get good at, “Okay is that right for me right now? Have I maxed out the current strategy that I’m doing right now?” And If you haven’t, just continue doing what you’re doing.” –Kirsty Verity Support is Sexy Ep. #745
• “You set up as you’re the authority. Even if you’ve not been in business and you’ve never ordered a product before, just write an email as if you have.” –Kirsty Verity Support is Sexy Ep. #745
• On time management: “It’s a bit like when you want to go on a diet-- what am I eating right now that is really not helping me on my journey?

• “Don’t build a brand around the product; you’re finding products to fit the brand.” –Elayne Fluker Support is Sexy Ep. #745
