Three months (initial term).
On ServiceTitan's YouTube channel (not the Blue Collar Nerd channel).
What's going on, everybody? It's Richard Coburger here, the Blue Cloud Nerd. So I have an announcement to make. As of today, March 30, 2020, I am officially working for Service Titan. Well, who's even in here? So I'm gonna be working with Service Titan as an independent contractor with a contract term of three months. And we'll see what happens after that initial period. But for at least those three months, any Service Titan related content that I create is going to be directly for Service Titan. And so my Service Titan related content will not live on the Blue Collar Nerd channel. It will live on Service Titan's channel. Now, all of the Service Titan related content that I've already made is not going anywhere. None of what's on my channel is going anywhere. And the Blue Collar Nerd channel itself is not going anywhere. I do plan to still post content to it, but since the deal is that I'm now making Service Titan content directly for Service Titan, any new content that I push to this channel, the Blue Collar Nerd channel, won't be directly Service Titan related. All that content is Service Titans and it's going to go on the Service Titan channel and that's going forward. Like I said, any of the content that's already made and on the Blue Collar Nerd channel, it's staying right where it is. So do please stay subscribed to this channel. And if you're not subscribed to this channel by now, then why do you hurt me? I'm really excited about the new content that I'm going to be pushing to this channel. And I'm equally as excited to start making videos directly for Service Titan. I've been pretty vocal in the past that I think that Service Titan's communication could use some improving. It was one of the main driving factors behind me making this Service Titan content here in the first place. And recently things have been getting a lot better in that department. But right now I think that I can provide even more value by working directly with Service Titan. I mean, now more than ever with all this Covid stuff going on and all this quick response that Service Titan is having to do to adapt and help us adapt. Things are moving fast and there's a lot to be communicated. You know, I make these videos to provide value to you guys. And I think that this is only going to be amplified going forward because now I'm on the inside, right? I can be the user's voice within Service Titan. I'm somebody who's working directly for service titan who uses the product every day. And I can also be service titan's voice to help communicate things clear to you guys. You know, that's a big part of why I think what I've done has worked is because I'm kind of bilingual in that sense. I speak contractor and I speak nerd. So ultimately, I hope that this is going to enable me to do what I've been doing even better, to really strengthen the communication between ServiceTitan and its users. What struck me as a really good sign for this whole thing was that ServiceTitan never asked me to take down any of my old videos, retract any of my old opinions, some of which have been very critical. So it means a lot that they see the value in that and see the value in keeping things authentic. I also just want to take this opportunity to thank you guys, everybody who watches these videos. The only way that these opportunities come to me is because people actually watch my videos and get value out of them. So thank you so much for watching and subscribing and all of that. It really means a lot. Come on, bring it in. Hug your computer screen, hug your phone, whatever it is. Yeah, this is the world we live in now. This is how we hug. Anyways, that's all I got for today. Like I said, new content is still gonna be coming to this channel. So keep an eye out, make sure you're subscribed. Hit like, if you like the video and service titan. I look forward to working with you, Corporate shell. Who. Who is. But.
