Business Quote by Jon Taffer

“You have to connect with your market and your employees. First, understand that what your market says is fact and what you say is opinion. Then, take the time to create a good connection with your employees. Without those two key connections, your business will be stuck in mediocrity forever.” quote by Jon Taffer — Download Open image
