How do you structure how you work with companies?

We get equity.

I mean, there's cash that covers just the expenses of the recruiting because the guys on the recruiting team are the best recruiters in the world, bar none, but they're not cheap.

So we have to collect cash to cover their expenses.

The way we make our money is we get an equity grant tied to four years.

And they say the same thing to everybody.

Like, look, we're going to get in there and you're quickly going to realize that we are going to change the outcome of your company.

You will see after a month exactly what you're getting.

By the way, if you don't, no problem.

You fire us.

What do founders say?

Every CEO conversation is, can I work with this guy?

Is he a killer?

And he's feeling me out too.

And I oftentimes will refer them to our interviews and say, you should watch this.

You understand what you're getting with me because I am not everybody's cup of tea.

A lot of people watch that and say, yeah, we shouldn't work together.

We're good.

Did I say that?

Oh, for sure.
