It's even better if people can get 1-on-1, 2-on-1, and things like that." [Nick, 2:17] "You need niche software to do niched things. Anyone advertising an all-in-one software solution is just wrong; it's just not possible and you can't be great at it." [Nick, 7:02] "In my perspective, I think a pricing increase only happens when you've created significant value. So, if I haven't created new features, or I haven't solved a new problem, I don't really buy the whole [argument about] inflation, year-over-year [increase]. No, as a software company, get more clients." [Nick, 17:44] "First thing that you want to always communicate as you're bringing in or maintaining a staff is your management style. Not only is it important for them to know what you expect of them, but they should also know how you plan to communicate, or in general, how you thrive to communicate."
