In the very beginning, right, wrong, or indifferent, people wanted to work with Empirics because they either knew me, they knew where I came from, or they wanted, yeah, some variance of that, right? voice-verified

And we know we can do it. voice-verified

And the client's telling us they can do it. voice-verified

And we are like, cool, stack hands. voice-verified
