“Once I figured out the skills that I had, how I wanted to live, which is desire, the third piece was demand. And that's where I did that labor market research. And I had to figure out what would make the most money, I found these three jobs, I was in the sweet spot of these three things.” – Jette Stubbs
“So, the first thing they need to recognize is that every job, freelance service or business is based on solving a problem. So anytime somebody is handing you money, you are either taking them away from a problem or towards a better situation for the company.” – Jette Stubbs
