I remember a little over two years ago when no one knew who Lightspeed Media was. I still recall going out to lunch with a company we had just started to do business with, and telling them about our plan. I'm sure they laughed at us. Less than three years later we are one their biggest customers.

Here's a few things I've learned:
- Be nice to people on the way up. I'll never forget the people who told me to get lost two years ago.
- If your in this for the quick money.... Get the fuck out. Your doing nothing but pissing people off.
Amen. Excuse my rant, I just have a few things to add . . . LISTEN UP nothing is worse than a business that has no respect for the people paying their bills. This is a GREAT industry and it will grow at least 100 fold in the next ten years along side internet growth. I am proud to be a part of it. True the landscape will change and there will be ups and downs those that do it right will still be around, the ones just in it for the money will not . Its easy to steal other peoples ideas but they don't work because the most important part is you need to be pasionate about what you do to find success. This is true in all things in life. Those who love the sites they run or promote will always be more succesful than those who are only in because they are chasing a money trail. The people chasing the money will also be the first to declare the sky is falling when they find themselves totally lost with no idea how they got there. Find what you love and do it and you will find success (i feel like a motivational speaker)
