I think I had about a thousand orders between November and December and
My company blew up on Reddit.
Reddit can be either very toxic or very good.
It was really good for a stint.
But then here's the other thing.
I was basing my lead times off what my previous manufacturing time was, which was three to five weeks, which wasn't very short in the first place.
But when people who ordered in November didn't get their stuff until February...
You can imagine the toxic Reddit community came out, which actually kind of in some ways is why I changed my company name.
Because that was when we were Anchor Point Holsters.
Actually, we started as Anchor Point Tactical, shifted to Anchor Point Holsters.
And so I kind of didn't want Goliath Defense to have...
any tarnishment on the name because of that.
It's like, I was an entrepreneur who was learning how to perfect my craft.
Right.
And at some level...
You have to have some humanness with it, and that's why I changed the way that I'm doing things because I don't ever want to do that again, and I don't want to treat my customers like that again.
Yeah.
Um, so we transitioned into glide defense, um, not only because we wanted to change the name to like reverse some, uh, some bad history, but, uh, uh,
To be completely honest with you, I don't know how many of you guys on here are men of faith or not.
That's fine.
