Tweetable Quotes:

• “Growth is massively complicated because growth is not what we generally would think it would be. There are five different elements to growth in an agency and they’re hard to distill out from the data.” – Ryan Deeds
• “If you’re a 60-year-old person waiting for the highest multiple ever on exit, you’re not going to reinvest the amount you need to to make that technology effective over the next five years. Sit on your stuff and wait till you exit and get out. Don’t frustrate yourself trying to be something that you’re not.” – Ryan Deeds
• “As an implementer of technology, my biggest pain point is just having individuals not understand that dynamic. Training is not a one-time thing, you’re not going to brand software by sitting somebody down.” – Ryan Deeds
