“They’re gonna know what things are to bear in the market and not go to, which is fine, you still can, go to the guy that did your kitchen or built your home. They did an exceptional job, you had a great experience. Doesn’t mean they’re gonna be an expert in building your practice. You can leverage them and use them if you want, but the expertise really comes in the proof of the process and in the individuals who do this day in and day out, and being experts in the field.” 34:06
