Quotable Moments From the Episode 

“What I would advise, if you know what your price point needs to be in order for you to run the business [but] you have pushback in the beginning, do not lower your prices. It just means you haven't found your audience yet.” - Toa Green

“Creating and putting a lot of thought into the production of [your product] is just so important when you're trying to create something that you can be proud of." - Toa  Green

"It's very easy to get stuck in wanting perfection, but I would advise you to not worry as much about that and just hit the button and launch.’” - Toa Green

“It is going to be a journey. As you perfect your product, change your product makeup, decide different pricing–all the things that we do to adjust our business to make it the best it can be.” - Toa Green
