Sometimes we actually do that. Today my special guest is Andy Slamans. And his adventures on Amazon started while he was working full time as a house parent caring for living with 12 at-risk high school boys. And we dive into that a little bit today. It's a very interesting story how Andy kind of came into this line of working and his journey so far. Andy knew it was time to leave his full-time job but his home looked like a prep and pack warehouse from all the inventory that was moving through it on a daily basis. And for any of us who run E-commerce businesses or even Amazon based businesses, there's probably been one time or another that living room down. He was full of boxes and your packing and picking stuff. It's a crazy environment for sure. Andy has launched over a hundred products on Amazon, is now focusing on two multi-million dollar brands is growing the right way on Amazon and he's a partner. And Amazing Freedom which is a company dedicated to helping E-commerce, sellers and brands win on the Amazon.com selling platform and he's a true giver and somebody who really cares about his fellow man and his fellow entrepreneurs for that matter. And it's something that I think that all of us can learn from is how can we make it a big impact on other people's lives. And I certainly personifies that and lives up to that in every possible way.
