One of the things that I really wanted to talk about today is how you've actually done it. Because I think you and I both know there is zero secrets most people think our success has come from. Like, they must have something we don't. They must have something that they know that is. Like, I have to figure out what it is in order to have the success and the fast growth that they've had. And you and I have talked about that. In your opinion, what has been the fastest, fastest way to growth for you over the last couple years?
I'm going to start by saying what I said earlier. Get a lot of people to know you fast. You know, when it, when it comes to marketing, I teach a philosophy called you want exponential or linear marketing. You know, linear marketing is what I was taught when I got in the industry. I'm going to call one person at a time. I'm going to go knock on one door at a time. That's going to take a long time to get somebody to know you, get a lot of people to know you. So if you want to scale a business, you got to get a lot of people to know you fast. That's marketing.
