I was like, I can teach car classes. I'm going to teach people how to buy a used car. I think the community support really makes a huge difference. Seeing how much value I can provide to people and seeing the end result of a 30-minute conversation with somebody that helps them buy the best car that they've ever been able to buy for the money they have or, you know, answering somebody's question on TikTok. I have customers that follow me on social media to this day.
