And now the guy posts online and he actually helps people improve their life. It was just seeing through this different lens. And that's what Dan's helped me to do because I had this exact lens perfect for the business. I didn't have it at home. I didn't know. I said, I don't chef. Like, I don't need a chef. Then I found myself ordering Uber Eats every night, not eating healthy.

Now it's hard not to eat healthy because if I don't like something, I'm like, make something different. And it does sound a little douchey, but it's not. It really isn't. It's just a way. And by the way, I invited a lot of people over. It's not like selfish, I don't think. It's me being more for my people.

I'll see you guys later. A lot of times this happens.

These guys don't know how to market like I market. Marketing is probably the fundamental thing that I've done very well. And I told them from the get-go. We were very clear. I'm in control of marketing. I will make the phone ring off the hook. And by the way, marketing is recruiting as well. So you let me handle this. You guys can put your financial engineers, your FP&A team.

Tell me where we're losing money. Tell me about a cost receivable. Tell me all the analysis you guys do. I'm good with that. There's certain things... And I quite frankly, I go to war. I go to war with some of these guys. And they say, if you feel that strongly and you're that passionate about it, we know it's going to work. And you know what they always remind me? They go, we didn't bet on A1.

We don't care about anyone. They do care. They said, we bet on you. They remind me all the time. This is your baby. We bet on the best of the best. But what does that do to me? It puts all the onus on me. It makes every decision I think about that harder. It says, is this going to grow the company and the profit? Is this going to take care of the people? I asked Ara, the founder of Service Titan.

This is a really interesting question. I said, you've got a lot of investors, dude. You also have the trades that you're loyal to. You've got a fiduciary responsibility right here. You've got a moral and ethical obligation over here. How do you do that? And he said, well, take, for example, you, Tommy. He goes, we didn't allow anything HVAC, plumbing, or electrical in.

He goes, I had investors back then. He goes, I spent $100,000 sending the success managers out there because I bought into you. And, of course, the investors are going, why are you spending $100,000 on a garage door company? But you told me you were going to take over the industry, and you did everything you said you were going to do. You've brought in 500 companies to service Titan.
