Five, six years ago, I was working as a detailer on gravel lot in the middle of nowhere, South Dakota. I was working for a guy, he sold cars to dealerships. And it was like semi trucks out there, no traffic, right? Yeah. And I started learning about little known thing called Facebook ads. Yeah. And I started going down the rabbit hole, but didn't have anything solid. But I would just spend eight hours a day while I'm cleaning cars. Just YouTube. It was my mom. I'd find one guy I like, just go through his whole channel. Yeah. And that was like eight months of just stoking that up. Yeah. One day I was walking from the gravel lot over to the other kind of nicer offices, and I saw this app and this guy here, my Lamborghini guy, you know, And I had known you from YouTube ads. Okay. Because like, you know, jam out to my music in the shower and then this guy, hey, you're in my garage with my Lamborghini 40 minutes later. Yeah. I'm like, I didn't know anything about YouTube ads, how it worked, how you were targeting the entire world.
