One additional piece I wanted to add, Stan, is that if Wing Zone, as Adam and myself launched our franchise program in 2000, if we would have gotten involved with a company like franchise founders that would have helped guide us through some of the learning curve, some of the mistakes, I believe we would have ramped up our success.
And franchise growth at a much more rapid pace.
But ultimately it didn't exist back then.
And so we had to kind of learn a lot of things along the way.
And I just am genuinely passionate about the opportunity that not only I can serve as CEO, but the impact we're gonna have with other young entrepreneurs, which truly is my life's passion.
You know, truthfully, I think that we're interested in food, but it's gotta be unique food and very relevant to where we think the industry's going, which is low labor or limited labor, uh technology, food to go, small footprint.
But truthfully, we're looking at franchise brands that can provide a quality of life with a strong return on investment for our franchise.
Franchisees.
And so one of the brands is Patriot Broadband, bringing internet service to rural America.
Really desolate areas where internet is not prevalent right now unless you have this expensive satellite dish on your roof.
Other ones are Raziri Salons, Extension Envy, Bobby Shea's famous crab cakes.
So I think for us, it is a multitude of different
Brands, but I think for us, it's really about the quality of life for a franchisee, and it's a unique segment that is not overly crowded, which is hard to find.
The truth is, is there's thousands of franchise brands out there, and some of them are at each other's throats trying to get market share, and we're trying to find those diamonds in the rough.
It's a great question.
I'm glad you asked it.
So franchise founders does not take any ownership in the current business.
So if you have six hair salons and you're a regional brand, you still own those six.
What we do is we create a new company, call it hair salon franchising LLC, and we start a new company where we both co-invest.
It could be that we have 40% of the franchise company.
