Now we can actually start to have the sales happen.
And so we started recruiting for ourselves.
Yeah, pretty much.
I mean, there's no actual revenue.
Direct sales.
So we met with, typically the way that we get leads is that we actually meet with people at events or they hear about us online.
They read about us in the paper or something.
That would have been out of an event up in Chicago, an IMTS event.
We did.
So we actually paid money for it to have a booth there set up.
And, you know, being a new company with new technology that's not really paralleled by anything else, they weren't even sure where to put us.
So they kind of put us in the wrong aisle.
But it ended up working out OK, too.
We met a lot of people.
We got a lot of leads out of it.
And some people, you know, the smaller companies are really a lot easier to work with.
They're faster than the larger ones.
Right.
So the large companies work.
we've been selling to them for months and we're still going through that process.
