Quotes from the show:

• “In my mind, ‘Let’s make a podcast’ meant ‘Let’s build a brand’… I did always have in my mind what the story could be. Whenever I have an idea… I sit down and I jot it out and I imagine what the tentacles can be and how far it can go.” –Sybil Amuti Support is Sexy Ep. #783
• “Do this right now, start this right now, before the people get here… Build it so that when they show up, they can see how you operate on social media, they can see all the other things that you have.” –Elayne Fluker Support is Sexy Ep. #783
• “When you’re building a brand, you have to know that your vision is good enough. You have to be fully satisfied with the idea that you may be the only customer for a long time. You have to have that internal esteem.” –Sybil Amuti Support is Sexy Ep. #783
• “That’s the gift of having a vision and stepping into it. We don’t get to decide how far and wide it goes, and thank God we don’t because we would restrict it.” –Sybil Amuti Support is Sexy Ep. #783
• “Yes, you are a brand. And yes, you have a brand. It’s your unique way of being. It’s your unique way of doing. It’s your unique way of feeling. It’s the way that you make other people’s senses come alive.” –Sybil Amuti Support is Sexy Ep. #783
• “You’d be remiss if you did not understand: Customer is community.” –Sybil Amuti Support is Sexy Ep. #783
• “I look at the podcast as more of a platform. I see all of the facets of real estate. These are all the things that are properties that another brand would see the value of if they were given the opportunity.” –Sybil Amuti Support is Sexy Ep. #783
