Memorable Failure:  Hiring a retail consultant for $27,000 and signing a contract with teeny tiny print that said no guarantees. After about 4 months I knew he was worthless but I couldn’t get out of the contract. I was sick to my stomach. I learned never to sign a contract I can’t get out of and how to make things performance based.

Ah-Ha Moment:  Which ah-ha? I’ve had several.

Digital Trends:  In today’s age of the Internet, there is little reason to use traditional methods of gaining exposure like the press release. With Twitter and LinkedIn you have the ability to reach journalists directly and build relationships with them.

Favorite success quote:  Million Dollar Ideas Are a Dime a Dozen. The determination to see the idea through is what’s priceless. ~Robert Dieffenbach

Favorite business book:  Start with Why ~Simon Sinek

Your most influential person: Steve Jobs
