I mentioned we have a goal. We have a 2021 to have our business to business sales up, hit a million dollars, and a goal for the end of 2023 to have our business to business sales, be 50% of our business. So, it's kind of opened our eyes. We're also looking to hire inside sales staff and our dedicated staff to build our online stores. The online stores are kind of going hand in hand with our growth in the corporate world by offering up the ability for them to open up a store for other than their customers or their employees. So that's kind of our plan to make things stick and if anything grow a little bit. Marshall Atkinson Yeah. And let me tell you, I've done tons of corporate work over the years. And even though that corporate logo is, you know, it's the official, it's this blue, or this red or whatever... a lot of times they want a tonal variation for like a dress shirt, or they want the pink thing for breast cancer awareness, or they're going to do a big promotion for St. Patrick's day and everything has to be in green. So there's a lot, you know, 4th of July, it's all stars and stripes and stuff, right? And so, there's a lot of room for this where you're not just doing the normal logo all the time -- there's a lot of variations. Of course, you're working with their brand guidelines and stuff, but are you guys developing this type of mentality? When you go more corporate and more direct, are you looking at doing stuff like that? Adam McCauley Yeah. And I think we get that from seeing what the fan base in the sports world has kind of transferred over into the corporate world. Like you said, stars and stripes, hey it's the 4th of July apparel. So they have a new special event for that particular company or they have whatever. The breast cancer awareness -- it's still fandom and it's a fandom based around a different thing instead of their sports team, it's fandom around this one event at this corporation. So with that being said it's still the same fandom and company culture that you would see on the baseball field or the basketball court. It's just translated over to the corporate world a little bit. Ryan Dost I see in this year in Michigan, hunting still a big thing up here -- outdoors, fishing, hunting, things like that. Some of them actually in the world we got into, I see it big time in the camo hats and things of that sort. Some of our big manufacturing customers, they were doing the tone on tone of their logo on different camo hats. And then that kind of expanded into once the one company got it, I think we had three others from that order wanting to do the same thing. So it wasn't always just the white logo on everything, they were getting specific, like the green and black camo hat and putting like a lighter green on it. And then like almost a tannish camo, and changing that, and little subtle things. So I think kind of time and maybe the 4th of July, but up here in Michigan, the same time really kind of made that business goes for us. Marshall Atkinson Good. So Adam, as the economy opens up and things are getting back to normal, how do you feel that your new direction is going to affect your business? What infrastructure or processes do you have in place to make sure that the growth that you're now kind of getting deploys smoothly and really kinda hits the target?
