Tweetable Quotes:

• “The key west event itself is special in that it is not a normal conference. And I think it’s important for everybody listening to understand the architecture of that before we get into the lessons learned or the lessons that should be learned.” – David Carothers
• “We go out into the sales world and we can prepare as much as we want, we can take all the training we want, we can have the best software, the best tools, just like in fishing, we can have the best tackle, the best electronics, the best boat. But what we can’t control is the environment.” – David Carothers
• “The biggest lesson that I’ve learned from Producers in Paradise is that we simply need to implement those things that are nuggets and impactful as quickly as we can hear them. Because no one else is responsible for our mindset other than ourselves.” – David Carothers
