  • To attract people to what you do, you have to produce something of great value for your clients, to make a really fantastic show for them to get interested particularly in your projects. If you cannot do that, there is something wrong with your business. [38:26]
  • Steven explains that shoe size is a relative measure depending on different variables such as personal preferences, measure length, types of material, brand, your own ideas on size, etc. There is no true size. [1:20:25]

 

Steven Sashen’s best advice for entrepreneurs:

“To make people stop you need to do something to get their attention. The biggest thing is that you should provide something of value, give people a really great experience.”
