The reason I was able to grow my business was that every day, after producing 30 minutes of wine television, I spent 15 hours a day replying to every single person's e-mail and every single person's Twitter @ reply.

I don't want anybody to not recognize how appreciative I am of the volume of e-mails I get.

I love people, and the hustle.

Part of why you love your parents is because they loved you first. Brands need to do that.

It’s not about how much you sleep. It’s what you do while you’re awake.

We're sharing things in our lives everyday that we wouldn't have picked up the phone to talk about ten years ago.

I've always had a knack for branding, so even with the lemonade stands, it was "Gary's Lemonade Stand." I worked on the signs all day, more so than on the lemonade itself. Then I learned you had to make good lemonade to build an actual business, so that taught me about lifetime value and quality.
