Key Quotes:

  • “When I saw the mention of the Protege, I’m like, well, this sounds exactly like what I should do. And, it helped me motivate myself to get off my butt and actually start executing some things.” – Jason Webb
  • “By blacking out the premium or withholding this information, you’re taking my negotiating power with the underwriter away. What’s going to happen is she or he is not going to work as hard on the account, because we’re batting blind. You’re effectively accomplishing the opposite of what you’re trying to accomplish.” – Jason Webb
  • “The name Minnesota Made podcast, it’s focusing on highlighting our interviews with local business leaders in the community…Anybody in Minnesota, athletes, anybody that’s done something significant that people want to hear about. I give them the chance to tell their story.” – Jason Webb
