• The impresario function is about intervening with the company's more administrative management structure. It is about trying to establish a sense of boundaries and budgets and milestones and so forth on a project that does not necessarily lend itself to milestones. It is about translating between the intimate interior environment of the creative work team and the company's need to make money. And finally, it is about positioning the fruits of the creative process in the marketplace and selling them.

• Mom & pop stores are not about something small; they are about something big. Ninety percent of all U.S. businesses are family owned or controlled.

We must have mom & pop stores because we are social animals. We crave to be part of the marketplace.
