And so I bumped that up to like $20 an hour, which was not much.

I worked my way up through that company.

And they were like, oh, well, you're going to get this.

You're going to get stock.

You're going to become a partner and stuff.

It was, it was mail driven.

I'm going to fix, this is driving me crazy.

see what goes happy keep talking no worries so yeah so fast forward um i was like i was thinking that oh i've got this degree i'm gonna get a job but uh so i started doing freelance work on the side i was unhappy in this company i started working up but i was only making like 35 000 a year or something something really low um or 40 and then um i literally was like i need to do something different and i need a new direction in my life

Then YouTube came out, started a production company, and I was like, what can we do?

But my whole focus around Broadcast Your Authority was to help people.

I knew I had an impactful story that I could share with others.

But the idea was to also help other people share their message.

And so we had content that took off and went viral because I started directing documentary films because I was really passionate about the stories and stuff like that.

But they were all one-off projects.

And so...

It didn't even click.

Well, I guess it did kind of click a little bit later on about what we do at Broadcast Your Authority from the short form content, but the data driven focus first of like, what are people actually searching for on YouTube and Google for your show and your podcast?

Is it because you have a big name on your show and they're highly searched?

Is it a topic that somebody is searching for in real estate or whatever that looks like as an inspiring story?

And so we had these films that took off and went viral.
