We were pursuing investors because we need it.

We were basically two, $3 million in the hole.

And as an investor, that's not necessarily attractive, right?

No, no.

So we were, you know, pitching the bright side and the upside of the country, the...

not country, company, the future of like the, what Maiel could be if you just believe in us and believe in our vision and believe in us as people.

So we ended up talking to this one investment group that were, they were a newer investment friends and family group.

They also had experience in our industry

So we felt some synergy there and we felt, oh, like you guys know what we've gone through.

You know, the mistakes that we've made, like you understand, you can feel our pain because you've been there.

And we went through, we'll get there.

So we went through at least six months of diligence with them.

And so they finally came back with an offer and they said, okay, we're going to give you $2 million, but we want 40% of your company.

Oh.

So you didn't do that deal.

Absolutely not.

But here's but it wasn't because I had the knowledge to say, no, I'm going to turn my back on this deal.

We we wanted to do the deal because we needed the money to survive.

We needed.

More than $2 million.
