Key Lessons from the Episode

The most important things to take away


1

Say yes to life and take opportunities as they come. Good things can happen when you try a lot of things that could end up good.

"The more you just say yes, the more I consider those darts thrown like good things can happen."
2

Elbow grease and throwing darts are essential for growing a business. Keep grinding and trying different approaches.

"It's just blind faith on the concept of elbow grease. I was like, I'm pretty sure only two things matter. Elbow grease and throwing darts."
3

Focus on providing value to your customers, even if it's something as simple as making their week a little more fun.

"We're just making the week a little more fun. Our initial slogan, which we removed, was make Monday suck less."
4

Don't be afraid to charge for your product or service. You may be undervaluing it if you're too cheap.

"We know we should charge more. It's so cheap."
5

Build relationships with your customers and listen to their feedback to improve your product or service.

"It was a great answer, and I felt really good that thousands or tens of thousands of people a week have their week just a tiny bit better."
