And so when we did agency work with Disney, that company was all bootstrapped.
And our customers were essentially our seed fund.
We'd sell ourselves into profitability.
This one, I didn't have the luxury.
I wish I could.
It's the best way to do it.
And I and I did fund myself for about a year, but I just de-risk it by you almost in any of every case you want to.
Investors can be very good partners for you there.
If it's smart money, they can bring you into business.
uh, certain deals and it just kind of de-risks.
You kind of want to know that other people believe in what you're doing and validate your idea.
