Key Quotes:

• “I am your best client and the biggest thorn in your side. Because when you do something cool, man, I think that’s really cool. And I’m going to talk about it a lot. I’m going to post about it, I’m going to share about it. I’m a great brand ambassador.” – James Jenkins
• “I think we just need to keep banging the drum. The reality is when they climb up on their hilltop and wave their flag, they’re not gonna back down from that. Because then it seems like a defeat or a failure, and no business owner wants to do that.” – James Jenkins
• “I think the important thing is having those behind the scenes conversations where you can influence the decision-makers before they decide to climb a hill and wave a flag.” – James Jenkins
