Networking Mistakes: "One of the biggest mistakes that people make is that they be that person that goes and hands their card out to absolutely everybody. Right. They're not intentional. They've got a spray and pray method."

— Matt Clark 00:04:03

AI and Personal Branding in Automation: "The whole world has changed drastically just in the last year, and with all the tools and opportunities that are coming out. You can actually go in and train the AI to sound and speak exactly like you based on stuff that you've written before."
