My favorite lines for marketing agency owners
The video by Scofield Editorial is packed with juicy quotes, but as a consultant and coach, these are my favorite lines:
- Going out to eat: “Quick question about the final total. Um, you see, we didn’t budget for this.”
- Getting a haircut: “No, I don’t want you to… work for free. It’s just a test, to see if my husband likes it.”
- Buying a video: “I’ve checked the discount bin, but I want this one.”
- Getting a haircut: “Well, I can cover your hard costs, but that’s really as far as I can go.”
- Going out to eat: “We’ll pay it this time, but we need you to show us how you made it so we can do it on our own in-house from now on.”
