I wanna cover more ground, get a bigger fan base.
Get big or get out!
His mission was to assist the small farmers. However he wrote them off with this flip remark.
We're certainly not in position to expand into the East. We've been very candid and up front that if, in fact, we go through an expansion process, the world will know about it.
If I had a formula, I would have launched newcomers every year or maybe, every quarter.
I think part of what happens is that small labels want to get bigger. And bigger is not better.
We don't have to go that far to sell our beer because our immediate accounts sell so much. Places that sold 10 cases before, now they're selling 30.
When I started Mediaite, I didn't expect it to become the business that it's become.
We had grown too fast at PayPal. Our operating expenses had grown too fast... Growth covers a lot of sin. We want to grow without sin.
Growth is kinda built into everyone's genes. It's built into management's genes, the salesman's genes, the investors' desires. People expect companies to grow.
We never thought we'd be commercially viable, and we were proved wrong.
We got on his label, and the Bizarre organization is just going up and up. So we have faith.

When I got a deposit on my very first cake, I took that deposit and I bought some cake mix with it. I've never taken a loan - ever. And we're doing this expansion just like everything we've done in this bakery as we've grown. If we weren't able to afford paying for something cash, we didn't buy it.
If we can make great games for PS3 players... how many PS3 players are out there? If we can make great games for everybody, that's a much bigger service. There's no reason I shouldn't do that.
