Quotables:
- 2:23 - “Marketing is going to change and is changing, first things first we can look at it on our day to day if you look at Google adverts, Facebook advertising, Bing advertising everything is moving towards automation which is making most of the marketing positions redundant over time.”
- 4:51 - “The first companies that want for a business to be successful are Google, Facebook, and all the other platforms out there why do they want that because unless the clients make money they are not going to make money with advertising so they will do everything in their power to make it as easy as possible for any company to make profits.”
- 18:39 - “I lived in probably 15 countries prior moving to the US and I picked up a bit of everything, the most important thing I learned is you need to learn to have compassion both with your clients and with the people working for you the reason being we always forget that we are talking to other human beings and a client sometimes might be mean to you but he might be mean because he’s a human being he’s worried about something so always being compassionate brings you way better results than being aggressive or mean or anything else.”
- 19:33 - “Continuos improvement you need to always try to achieve to be the best at what you do you never need to settle because remember this is a world that is globalized and there is always going to be someone who is hungrier than you are.”
- 20:04 - “You need clear mind to do your job well so sacrificing little pleasures for work it seems like an effort worth doing because it’s going to help you grow your business but it actually clouds your mind the best ideas come to you when you’re having fun and relaxing.”
