QUOTES

Joshua: “Pipeline is of utmost importance. But what if we didn’t think about the pipeline for the month, or for the quarter, or even for the year. What if we thought about a pipeline for a life?” 

Joshua: “Anytime you engage with somebody, you better know how they make money. And even further, better know how they look at profit. Are they a public company, are they reporting to their shareholders? Are they a private company that’s looking to grow or look for acquisition?” 

Joshua: “You need to gain experience along the way, and use that experience to mold who you are. What’s your point of view? How can you help to grow connections, help people out no matter what it is you’re doing?”
