Quote
“I don't think we use the term friendship enough in business. I think this strategy of content-based networking, creating content and collaborating with the people that you want to know is allowing me to initiate friendships with people that otherwise would be really hard to connect with.” - James Carbary, founder of Sweet Fish Media
