Neil’s Quote at the Beginning:

Other Quotes From the Chat with Perry Price:
- “One of the first mistakes that I made was not making enough mistakes fast enough so, initially there’s a lot of decisions that you’d make out of the gate and you can get wrapped up in one of them for a lot of time and its more important to make sure you make the small decisions fast and make the people decisions a little slower to make sure you’re getting the right people with you and roll in that boat with you, so don’t be afraid to make a mistake and move on”
- “Don’t make the decisions focussed on the answer that “well this one will work for that job, this person, he or she should be okay in that, you don’t want okay, especially when you’re looking at your third or fourth hire in the business beyond the founding team”
