Top 3 Takeaways From This Value-Packed Conversation

You will never have long-term success if you don’t have the fundamentals in place. The core fundamentals of any approach are the same as they were 50 years ago and will remain the same 50 years from today. You may adapt new skill sets and procedures to your approach, but the fundamentals will serve as your foundation
The three fundamental marketing pillars are 1) Know your target customer, 2) develop the right message for your target customer, and 3) have a plan for how to get said message in front of those target customers
The biggest mindset shift you need to embrace is thinking long-term versus short-term. Building a brand is a marathon, not a sprint. A short-term decision can have a critical, negative impact on your long-term growth and success
