So we're, we're toying with the idea.
So, uh, depending on where you guys are at, I mean, you probably get hit with all the emails.
Hey, you know, would it be helpful if we met, you know, even if you're not looking to raise, you know, the, the typical, there's, there's one guy who trains all these guys how to set, how to send an email, uh, cause it's the same template.
But, um, it's like right when you hit 200 K a month, there's some API they have into Stripe that just tells them, start sending those emails to that guy.
Right.
Um, but no, so I, I actually started taking those calls just to see what's what, right.
I, I,
I didn't go to school for any financial stuff.
I walked out of college after six weeks.
I'm a sales and marketing guy.
I've never been in the VC world.
I've never played there.
So once we started to get success, I was like, well, what are these guys about?
What are they going to talk about?
You know, what are they going to look at?
And so I actually used them three times in the last three and a half years to dissect our business and tell me what's wrong with it.
Right.
They're all going to be, you know, like, oh, your business is so great.
Right up until the point where you're like, give me money.
And then they want to tell you what everything that's wrong with your business.
