So, do you do billboards and things of that size? How many bucket trucks do you have and people in them?
No, we don't do billboards... From what I can tell billboards are an industry of their own and not one we've chosen to pursue.
We have two bucket trucks and installers to keep them on the road every day.
We aren't a huge company, we will do $3-3.5M in revenue this year.
We have grown quickly but I'm well aware of our place in the market - we are bigger than the small shops and smaller than the big shops.
The point of all this wasn't to say we're a big company (I'm sure some of you are bigger), it was to say that 5 years ago people said I couldn't build a self-sustaining business that would allow me to go on vacation for a month without the business falling apart... And I just did that.
I know that somewhere in the world there's a sign entrepreneur in a position like where I was 5 years ago wondering if they can build a self-sustaining business, and I want them to know they should ignore the naysayers and keep moving forward, because they can.
It's obvious at this point I'm not going to convince any of you guys it's possible (you don't even believe that I have).
