We are seeing some really cool wins so far. It's super early and I just wanted to thank everyone.

Full Transcript:

Ryan: Sunday is July 30th. I wanted this first thank you guys for following along on our vlog and our journey. I know that you know we've been testing out a bunch of things. One we've been testing out a lot of stuff with just the company and just trying to figure out you know what we can do to make the company grows and company scale. But at the same time you know we're obviously going through another journey in parallel to the company or creating a vlog which is pretty much like a series. It’s full-time job for multiple people and you know we're documenting the process and we're testing out a lot of different things with that as well. We're trying to figure out you know like what resonates, what doesn't resonate. The biggest thing that I want to personally do is to just give back and try to just say hey guys it's completely possible for you guys to build a business and for you to get something off the ground that you want to do. So I think a lot of times if you're not exposed to people you know and seeing that it works, - seeing the success that people have from doing those things; you might think that it's like a long shot or that it's like unattainable and that sort of thing. And that's the whole purpose of going about this long and documenting everything and putting it out seven days a week; is that I want to show you that if you just put your head down and you try to figure something out you go all-in on it you can actually do it. [do it!]

Ryan: You know I know that sometimes it might not seem as relatable with stuff the that we're doing. But I'm trying to stay really high level and just say like you know whether you're trying to create a small social media company or you know an internet marketing agency in your hometown; whether you're going to create a small business; a plumbing company, an HVAC company; whether you're going to open a spa or yoga studio. Whatever it is you know you can apply a lot of the stuff that we're doing to your own business. What we're trying to do is to show you one way of doing things; the way that we're doing things and it's working for us. You know but look we're all just trying to figure it out just like you guys are trying to figure it out. We're documenting our process so that you can say hey this is what they're doing; they're seeing success with this, let me try it in our business, in my business. And then from that you can take that and you can you know apply you know your own style to it or whatever it is. But the fact is it's like I want you to see what we're doing seven days a week and the fact that we're growing our business right now anywhere from 25 to 40 percent week over week. We're seeing a lot a lot of growth and it's working for us okay. We're not trust fund kids, we don't come from money; all of us come from like nothing and we've done everything; you know we build everything from the ground up. With the internet and access the information and content these days you can do all of that stuff if you really just try to put your mind to it and figure out you know what you need to do. You have access to all the information; a wealth of knowledge is all on the internet and you can figure it out. You just gotta go like head down and you just got to be committed to it. That's the biggest thing, staying being committed to something. Engage with us, that's what I want you to do. My name's Ryan shank, this is our journey of building - wagon from the ground up. We don't have any outside funding, we're completely bootstrap and we're going through a - right. We're documenting our journeys every single day. I want you guys to come along for the ride and I really really appreciate it you got an engagement with us and following along. Okay I hope you're out there being Pioneers, being Wagoneers; welcome to the vlog.

Ryan: If you want to record like intro, I just talked to my friend for awhile and he’s just like giving me some advice. He's like my best friend from home and he's like kind of a dick to me, like I kind of like it. [??? 3:30] But he does it so like the extreme, he’s like dude I know. He's like you’re a dush. [??? 3:40] Well he was just like we want to be more relatable like not everyone in New York City, not everyone's in like -- You want to be able to be like appeal to like a super broad like all the ends and stuff. But the videos just be...he’s like I know you you know, he’s like when I talk to you it’s like I get what you're doing. He’s like from the outside people probably think - like either like too - or be like too obnoxious and stuff. He’s like you want to just like break it down and I be more like real with people. You know so it's like random kid likes graduated college and want to start like painting business, he could get the same amount of value as someone who wants to start a - company. [??? 4:13] Disagree with what?
