Hi, my name is Sam, and I did my MBA, finished in 2019, and after that I worked for a healthy food manufacturing company. And I met Amin at an E Commerce event, and we connected there. And I've always been interested in starting my own supplement brand. And one of the things that was really scary for a new person entering E commerce was that there are so many gurus and people who claim to know what they're talking about, and you can go into so many different rabbit holes and really wind up without much information that you can act on. And when I consulted Amin, I think the biggest thing that he was able to help me with was really just cutting through all of the fluff and letting me know what I needed to do from step one of just conceptualization to, you know, who I should work with to start a supplement company or, you know, be a supplier for that so that I don't waste time and money trying to figure it out on my own. Because he had made those mistakes and was very generous with sharing how to avoid those mistakes. So because of the whole Covid thing, my plans are, have had to adjust a little bit, but it's business that I'm still going to pursue, and I'm. There's no one I would rather work with than Amin and helping me bring my concepts and ideas to life. And I'm looking forward to working with him as I start this in the next, you know, few months. So, I mean, thank you very much for your time. Your generosity when I, when I called you back then really meant a lot to me, and I am more energized to actually pursue these ideas that I have for my own, my own supplement brand because of our conversation. So more power to you, brother, and good luck.
