Jarrod Hennis Yeah. Thank you. It's been...it's been super fun being a part of all the talking and the events and the, uh, you know, just trying to help other screen printers in the industry. Marshall Atkinson Right, right. So you're ready to get going? Jarrod Hennis I am. Marshall Atkinson Okay. So first I want to get started with basically the idea of what is the “Here for Good” campaign. Where did that come from and how did you get started doing it? Jarrod Hennis Yeah, so, I mean, the “Here for Good” idea in the big grand scheme of things is just a fundraiser site. It's what people have been doing for years is print shops of spirit wear and it’s helping an organization make money and then helping your business make money. So that's the general overall feel of it? Where did it come from? The branding of it “Here for Good” was from one of my friends, Sloan at a Tiny Little Monster in St. Louis. And, she kind of branded the “Here for Good” movement and reached out to other print shops and, you know, me being one of those and I was just super stoked about what it was doing. And, you know, we were in this pandemic and what we still are and trying to figure out what we can do to help pivot and, and use our shops for a force of good. And, she nailed it on the head with the “Here for Good” style. And then everyone just kind of used what they had from that to, in their arsenal to kind of just at least get the groundwork of it going. Marshall Atkinson Yeah. And so locally, you started this and of course, we always start with that first customer. For you, what business was that and how did you get other people to get involved and talk about how many shops, how much money you raise? Kind of all that from beginning to the end here. Jarrod Hennis As a custom print shop and being in the industry for 15ish years, we have a base of our loyal customers who are ride or die. They'll do whatever we want to do and will help us out to help them out. So actually, Westrock Wake Park was the first business that I added on. They run a local wakeboarding business, uh, cable park. So you can wakeboard on a lake.
