But it's funny that we look at those platforms. And we always will, we tend to forget about blogs, but not that much. But we often forget about video. Video requires a lot of resource if you really want to do it right. And you should do it right. There is no other medium that allows you to connect with your potential audience and video. I mean, it's you It's love. It's as close to seeing you or something in person.
