| 0:05.2 | the best arguments and the best structure. But in case competitions, it's more of an executive |
| 0:11.6 | at Amazon says, hey Richard, hey Brandon, I'm looking to open a new Amazon ghost store. Should I |

| 1:35.0 | focus on ambitious executives and entrepreneurs to become top communicators in the industry. |
| 1:40.4 | So I think this is going to be a great call. And just to talk about the irony, I had some |
