I am in the people business. I'm not in the lumber business. I just happen to also sell lumber. So customer relationships are the beginning, the end, the middle. It's all of it. Maybe I'm not jaded, maybe I hope I never will be. But I think what makes me unique is that I always want to know more and learn more and ask why? Because I genuinely love what I do still every day. I love going to work. I think what sets Spartan apart is the people, the leadership. We believe in what we do and we're experts and we stay in our lane. And I think that's why people choose to buy from me or from one of my other co workers. Every consultant or trader at Spartan is specific to softwoods or hardwoods. Me personally, I love Brazilian hardwoods. That's what I sell. And I also sell bulk builder goods. Yesler was able to help me get my products and what they are to a larger network quicker. And so it didn't change anything about me. It just utilized everything in my brain and put it in a nice format to where other people could understand what I was thinking.
