Well, and because at the end of the day, if you did it seriously, you're going to have real lead flow every day, every week, every month, and then it's just a matter of conversion. are you able to convert the deal and convert the list or lead? And that's why I tell the people like, When we go into any new marketing channel, so probably the newest I'm aware that we've tried was TV. Okay.

So I've never done TV. This year we did TV. Or the end of last year we did TV. So Q4 of last year we started TV. Okay. So I was like, dude, everyone, you know, people are doing it. They're finding success. Let's try TV out. I've done everything. PPL, PPC, direct mail, cold calling floors. I built my, like I've done it all. I've never done TV. So I tried that.

That's the most recent like marketing strategy. Okay. I said, if I can go 90 days and or up to six months and break even, it's a keeper. The reason being is because then I know over a longer runway, all those leads will turn into profitability. Right now, not everyone has the luxury of I'm 20 years in this business. Right.

That's where the profitability comes because you're bringing in the old leads that convert and still breaking even on the new leads. Over time, you look back at the end of your year, you will be up at a minimum of 3x because there's four quarters. So if you bring it, break even on quarter one and profitable for three quarters, you're going to be at a three X almost every time.
