Key Quotes by Sean Douglas

1.  “If you position yourself correctly, then you will not fail as a business owner unless you absolutely, ridiculously are horrible and you suck in entrepreneurship or running a business, but that’s internal stuff.”
2. “Positioning of business means how the market place perceives you as a business and as a brand.”
3. “Number one rule of success is to schedule everything. I recommend that people in their job create a business that they want to create.”
4. “Build, grow and scale while you’re in a job and then when this entrepreneurial or this business venture starts supplementing your income or making more than your actual yearly income that is when you quit your job or if you don’t want to quit your job then run it.”
5. “If you don’t have the time but you have money and you outsource it and you can make me and other people do it.”
6. “You got to position yourself above the competition.”
7. “If you’re in the military and you want to be an entrepreneur start it now; you can do it”.
