-: So problem-solving is a huge, huge aspect of any start-up
or business in general.
And it's something I definitely look for when I'm
bringing someone onto the team.
For example, we had an event this past weekend in New York,
and we forgot a lot of the labels for the hang tags.
So, we had to think quick on our feet
and go to a craft store, buy sticky paper,
create a file online that was our hang tag, print it out.
We bought a printer from Walmart, printed it out,
and the problem was solved.
It took some ingenuity
and some thought, but it solved a huge problem.
I mean, that's 20% of what sells the product.
So it's stuff like that that really makes or break
whether or not somebody's useful.
And it's not the times that are relaxed and mundane,
the average work week.
It's the times that are high speed and high stress
is when you need that person to come through.
