Can I quote a client?

With their permission — or describe them (“a client”) instead of naming them.

What if I can't find who said it?

Don't use it. Misattributed quotes are everywhere and easy to spot.

Can PaperFlight write a quote post for me?

Yes. PaperFlight's AI CMO picks the kind for each day from your week plan; its Writer follows this structure in your voice, a critic checks it, and the Designer draws it as Quote, Quote stack and Statement in your brand. You approve it, or let it publish on its own.

THE SHORT ANSWER

Bbusiness coachExample · Quote

“I don't need more customers. I need the ones I have to come back.” — A client, in our first session last spring It changed what we worked on. We stopped chasing new leads for a quarter and wrote to every customer from the last year instead.

The mistakes to avoid.

A quote with no source, or the wrong one.
Improving the wording.
Nothing of your own after it.
