Maybe give me a 30 second kind of pitch in terms of why you think it'd be a good fit. And then we'll jump into some questions. I embody a lot of the characteristics that you're looking for.
Nobody can bring the passion that I bring to lawn care.
Want to scale it up? Majorly. Well, I started my first business in 18:1. I'm a leader.
The experience that I have, I've been cooking since I was 12 years old.
Today, I actually had an emergency come up and I had to go.
Okay, well, Mike, I'm gonna have to be straight up honest with you. I'm not sure I can actually do it. I've just been. I've been watching your channel for two years. I am gonna be in Charlotte. Just had to say hello.
It's amazing that someone literally within 24 hours is willing to move their family six hours from here and, like, start everything new. So, like, I gotta take this seriously because this is a real position, and everyone's like, oh, this is all for show. My regional manager that you all been watching videos about, Chuck, he also did the exact same thing on a Zoom call with me. Moved his family across the country from Ohio.
Yes, you started out solo, but you gotta plow through being solo as quick as possible.
