The moment you begin to think that money will always be there, that’s when you risk not working quite as hard to earn it. Or, if you allow the customer to perceive that you’re taking the business for granted, you’re closer than you think to kissing that once renewable source of revenue goodbye. — Mike Anderson, The Center for Sales Strategy

I encourage everyone interested in growing a platform to begin with a home base that you control. Use other services to expand your reach, but build your house on your own lot…Ownership provides stability because you set the rules.

This means that you post your primary content on your own blog. It’s also why you want to convert social media followers to email subscribers. — Michael Hyatt
