Stop whining, start hustling.

Best wine if you're stranded on a deserted island? 1982 Salon Champagne.

When we launched the WineLibrary website in 1996, I didn't even own a computer yet. I just understood that there was an opportunity here to market in a different way.

It took thirty-eight years before 50 million people gained access to radios. It took television thirteen years to earn an audience that size. It took Instagram a year and a half.

I've done really well on one core principle which is, I think I have an intuitive ability to understand consumer behavior more than the average bear, and I'm not scared to bet the farm on that gut feeling.

Skills are cheap. Passion is priceless.

I am aware of the talent I was gifted and had to execute against it. It is just being very self aware and betting on your best strength.
