When I was building that house, I had a hard time getting a septic tank because there's no more Penny Saver where I can go buying stuff. Nobody's throwing newspapers in my driveway so I can go read where to find stuff. I don't have Yellow Pages to go to nothing. So when I go to find a septic tank. If you don't know what a septic tank is, it's a box that your poop goes in when you live in the country, okay? I couldn't find the damn things, so I literally drove around looking for places that could possibly make them, asking people, and they're like, oh, go to this guy. So I went to this guy. His name is. His name is Ellis, and I'm actually with one of my partners right now. Roman and I went to Ellis and we said, hey, you know, can we. You know, can we start advertising for you? I went in into it, kind of like with Mike's mentality. Let's market for you, bro. Let us market for you. He goes, I don't need that. Why not? He says, because I. I'm good. I sell what I need. I don't. I don't need marketing. Like, I couldn't help you. You can't find me, but know I'm not going to pay you to bring me more customers. I said, okay. I says, can I sell for you? He said, yep. I said, okay, cool. More pictures. Facebook Marketplace.
