But you can get to the place where you do not have to work 40 or 25 or 15 hours a week. You just have to stay at it until you figure out how to get your hours down.” - Geraldine Carter

“Thinking that revenue comes from work for clients is like thinking that time comes from your watch, it's not how that works.” - Geraldine Carter

“Your buyer decides what price they want to pay. So, we do tiered pricing, we offer it to the clients.” - Geraldine Carter

“Most accountants are selling services, but they're creating and delivering transformations.” - Geraldine Carter
