[Nick, 17:04] "We can talk about how much people hate role playing for sales. I imagine how much they hate doing role playing for safety, but there is really no way to reenact it other than getting reps in, simulated reps in." [Nick, 21:08] "It's a boring and scary side of the business, but it is super important and it could be a differentiator for you in the area. If something happens at one place and they don't handle it so well, and something happens at your place and you do handle it well, it's going to build up a lot of trust and certainty."
