SPEAKER_00 (01:03):
Well, there there's lots of good reasons.
Um first of all, I'm allergic tocarrots.
It's the only only food I'mactually allergic to is carrots,
which is a true story.

SPEAKER_01 (01:12):
And so you named your company after it.

SPEAKER_00 (01:15):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (01:16):
Why?

SPEAKER_00 (01:18):
The second reason uh that I that I named it after
carrot uh was uh it's actually afunctional reason, right?
You we help people get leads,you dangle this thing in front
of people and they cat theycatch it, they capture it, they
they bite the carrot.

SPEAKER_01 (01:32):
That's okay.
So you uh you help people getleads.

SPEAKER_00 (01:36):
Help help people get leads, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (01:37):
So you dangle a carrot in front of their face.

SPEAKER_00 (01:40):
Yes, yes, exactly.
And it works.
Millions of them.

SPEAKER_01 (01:45):
How did you think of this?

SPEAKER_00 (01:47):
Um, dude, so the the way I originally thought about
it was I I had that problem.
I couldn't get leads, so Ilearned how to do this thing,
learn how to build websites thatactually worked.

SPEAKER_01 (01:57):
Real estate or something else?

SPEAKER_00 (01:58):
For real estate primarily.

SPEAKER_01 (01:59):
You wanted to invest in real estate.

SPEAKER_00 (02:01):
Yep.
And then I helped real estateinvestors, real estate agents do
the same thing as a like aconsultant.
And it was too much work to setthese things up one by one,
these websites up one by one.
And so just made a system to doit.
I hired a web dude, paid him 10bucks an hour, whatever it was,
and had him build this thing forme to automate it.

(02:22):
And that turned into a lot morepeople wanting it, and then
8,000 people wanting it.

SPEAKER_01 (02:27):
Are you like the richest guy in this room?

SPEAKER_00 (02:29):
In this room?
Definitely not in this room, no.
No, it's gotta be you.

SPEAKER_01 (02:34):
Not counting.

SPEAKER_00 (02:35):

SPEAKER_00 (02:40):
Uh, from a small town in Oregon called Roseburg,
about 25,000 people.

SPEAKER_01 (02:45):
So you just love communist countries?

SPEAKER_00 (02:48):
Germany, Oregon?
Oregon, Oregon, uh, so we livein a conservative part of
Oregon.
Big time.
It's it's so the one to thetimber capital of America is in
this county that we live in.
And it's it's hyperconservative.

SPEAKER_01 (03:04):
Why did your state literally come up with the worst
regulation for wholesaling?

SPEAKER_00 (03:11):
Dude, they they come up with a lot of amazing
regulations.
So uh the last couple years, youcan shoot up meth in front of a
cop now and not get arrested.
Um, you can take psychedelicmushrooms in front of a cop and
not get arrested.

SPEAKER_01 (03:24):
Have you told Frank Chen about this?

SPEAKER_00 (03:27):
No.
No, so we're gonna go.
We're dude, we're we're on fireall the time with our
regulations.
I think we just like to trythings that are really crazy and
stupid and then see how itworks, and we're the experiment
petri dish for the rest ofAmerica, I think.

SPEAKER_01 (03:40):
I uh I did a deal in Portland, Oregon once, and I had
to pay an art tax.

Yes.
Was there art in the property?
