00:00 - 00:36 "I had a friend who used to, who was oddly enough, he was the VP of marketing at the U.S. Postal Service. And his dad, his dad owned a hardware store in a rural city. And his dad was trying to advertise to, you know, build his business. And he said, my friend said, you know, dad, you should really use the mail. I'm at the U.S. Postal Service. You know, it'd be good for us. Mail works. It would be good for you. The stats on mail, by the way, for those who aren't familiar Direct Marketing Association says it returns on average $13 for every dollar invested. So that's one of the highest among advertising mediums, if you can properly target people.” — Wilson Zehr
