Quotable Moments
“Software is NOT a silver bullet. It’s not going to solve all of your problems.” – Khalil
“Using software is more about behavior changes instead of features or integrations. If you don’t use it right, or regularly, it won’t solve your problems.” – Khalil
“You want to map out what that timeline looks like. It will be really clear to you where you need to develop systems in your business.” – Khalil
“Beware of the silver bullet and one-size-fits-all software. You may have a software that does it all, but then you realize it’s not even set up for your industry.” – Khalil
“Having integration matters, but there are some integrations that are more valuable than others. Look inside your business and see where there’s overlap or collaboration and integration might be necessary.” – Khalil
