And, uh, and the other company I will I worked with was a company called soleus. So I started buying stuff from Granger and reselling it and Granger's a huge company. And actually funny part of the story is the company, the first company I bought though.
#Goodtimes cigarillos portable#
And uh, and then just started looking for portable air conditioners. So I'm like, Oh, I should find out what these things are. It was listed as the number three search term at that time and period. And um, so I just did a search on Yahoo or not even did a search, just looked on Yahoo homepage and at the bottom, portable air conditioners.

He didn't know anything about SEO, didn't know anything about how to buy a product or who to buy a product from. So I did a search during summer to find, I had no idea about anything online. And, um, and he was selling computer electronic parts. He was driving a nice car and I'm driving a beat up truck into, uh, from Huntington beach to Glendale, which is probably like 48 miles or 45 miles, but it could be two hours. So he didn't, he didn't even finish college. So you saw your brother, he was killing it online and you said, why can't, why can't I do it either? And, uh, probably within six months it was already taken off really fast and, and uh, kind of just took it from there. Uh, in 2001, after working as a scientist and then kind of saw my little brother doing really well online, started this company kind of burning the midnight oil. And, um, and then after that I went to work as a hazard voice scientist and then started this company, which is kind of several different brands and companies along the way. So out of orange County, he's very successful and they've got a great company. So for about four years, five years, I was um, you know, driving around in a tank top and cleaning swimming pools and after graduated college, sold that business to a friend who still runs it. So going back, so I had, um, a newspaper route, then I started a pool business, actually swimming pool service. So, um, so that was kind of a thrust on you from the beginning. And, uh, had donuts around the house day and night and that, that's kind of how we were raised and had newspaper routes and all that kind of stuff. So my parents were, you know, we had to make our breakfast and make our lunch or earn our lunch. Yeah, well, so we always had a job when I was growing up, we had a donut shop, so we had a big family and had a donut shop and I was making donuts in the middle of the night and, and I would literally go into school with a bag of donuts that I would trade for lunches. What, what was it like growing up? What, what about your upbringing contributed to you taking this path? I'm learning, I'm learning that we got the nice setup and then I'm trying to become the aficionados, but it's fun to have it.Ĭool man.
