Quotables
“We kinda approached it from the consumer, the renter perspective first and it was a problem that all of our peers were talking about.”
“That was all about this philosophy of don’t over-optimize and don’t build before you know exactly what the customer wants and what the pain points are.”
“So many opportunities that come up in my experience, in our business, have come up because we’ve knocked on that extra door. We’ve asked the tough question when the time has run out to a mentor or to someone we want to make a deal with.”
