“Each no actually brings a return. It solidifies with your team that our standards are not to be compromised.” — Ross McDaniel

Join Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and Ross McDaniel; founder of FencePost, a digital marketing agency helping local service businesses grow profitably in cities across America, for a roundtable that goes way beyond business tactics.
