Sound Bites "Money talks. If we can find ways for clubs to make more money and save time so people aren't getting burnt out, that's a huge thing in this industry." "It'd be very silly not to consider outside advice and think you have all the answers yourself." "It took about 10 to 12 minutes to set up and generated a little over $10,000 in revenue. I call it the 10 for 10."
