And so if you can just go to Google and start, you know, raising the keyword price just a little bit at a time, you start getting maybe some of the less competitive areas, but people that are still willing to pay the same amount.
And the nice thing that Geek Squad did was they proved the market out and made it kind of like a, you know, standard price across the country.
So it's
Even if it was in a smaller town, it was the same amount of revenue coming in.
And that's kind of how we built it out initially.
And then just kind of took it nationwide, where now we have over 7,000 providers nationwide.
So, yeah, um, I do have kind of a personal thing about the word marketplace where I, I consider us more as a platform.
I would describe kind of the Airbnb where you get to select a provider, you see star ratings, um, kind of, you know, that process is more of a marketplace.
We're more of a platform where somebody comes in, they just say what their problem is and we pick the provider.
We kind of take care of everything else.

No, no, no.
I mean, I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say literally nothing.
I would consider that when we first got actual customers was about 2013.
So our first year revenue for that was probably about $20,000.
Um, but then we quickly grew from, you know, 60 to 130.
And then, um, at the time of, of when we got acquired, we were doing about 275, uh, to about 300.
So, uh, a month actually.
