right now let's just do well no so you get to do do you get the option to renew before someone else does yeah so we renewed three months in advance yeah see we might as well as well we're going to get a notification yes we might as well do a year we gotta we have our office downstairs for a year it wouldn't we take a risk i mean and something comes up you can upgrade within that period okay there you go just bring the price down can upgrade we just can't downgrade okay but we have that office downstairs for a year no matter what so there's no reason we would need to get out of this less than a year it's just to keep all the overflow i guess you got a coffee machine right there too thank you i still like the idea of a mural of hong kong hong kong i don't know that's where all the watches got you got to put a team is a bigger watch market than dubai yeah you got to put a tv in there man we'll put a tv in there have a tv on one side hong kong on the other and just put it on your radar we have a meeting at 3 45 if you want to keep it we'll go over to the crm still the demo yes you guys all i think on the invite for us what crm is this hubspot okay what's wrong with your using now we don't have one i thought we were using pipedrive it's too complicated okay pipeline is not meant for a crm it's meant for in like what quickbooks is doing for us we need a simple crm that can track name phone addresses that's it gotcha exactly so i talked to you the other day right yeah on uh thursday morning i was speaking to you i was actually on the road uh heading to a basketball tournament i have to apologize i've talked to like a million people oh i'm sure yeah of course but remind me and i'll remember yeah so uh my name's aj hummer and i spoke with marco and dylan about i think two weeks ago i came in here um and so i'm a student at ut arlington uh i play on the wheelchair basketball team the movement mavs you saw me asking what happened yeah that's fine um without giving my life story i mean it kind of is i suppose i was born three months premature and i'm a triplet and so we were born early um so my sister was born first and she's uh like quadriplegic cerebral palsy um so like her hands don't really work very well and she's like fully wheelchair-bound and needs people to assist her in like daily living i'm the middle child and i'm right there in between and so like my legs i get really tired really quick standing or walking or and i have a hard time balancing so if you like nudge me on accident i'll just i'll just fall my brother um he's like the least disabled if you just looked at him you wouldn't know he's disabled uh he's an ale body is what we call him i guess what everyone else is here and he can walk just fine but he's had 13 brain surgeries and i mean even just last it was last week i mean he's had a few seizures last week i was just there when he has last one so it's pretty scary if you just look at someone who's in a wheelchair or they're disabled you're like oh i'm so sorry for you or whatever and i get that you wouldn't even understand like in the grocery store i'm telling you man it's like one time alone three times just in the same trip oh i'm really sorry for it i'm really sorry oh that that looks like it sucks it's like dude like i'm trying to get my groceries man like i'm kidding but it gets annoying it does it does and like i can understand it and there's a lot of stereotypes and a lot of things that people just don't understand um but you know i've always told everyone i've spoke with about my disability i'd rather be disabled than a body because i'm from a farm town in indiana of about 2 000 people if i wasn't disabled i probably wouldn't be playing collegiate wheelchair basketball on a scholarship okay next question i'll kind of speed through remember if let's say we just decided to bring you on as an intern and like now like oh not like right now but of course maybe tomorrow yeah ish i just say yeah yeah i mean it's i'm not i'm not kidding we were literally just sitting here at a 30-minute conversation about we need another person in the office and if it's something that's bare we need to start with the bare basics we need someone to answer my phone the instagram the instagram messages i can i could keep up with my phone if i didn't have to keep up with the emails and the instagram messages if someone could come in go through all those messages and filter if we could have someone come in and organize all that put it on a spreadsheet that'd be like a perfect start as you do this if you'll like you take those notes and you go home at night and look up these reference number if you can tell me what that watch is right there you'll get to that point oh yeah then dylan can show you how to start finding those watches and then he can dylan would like what we would like for dylan to create what dylan wants he wants a sales team we want him to have a sales team so he needs to teach people how to sell yeah and how to find watches and and close deals if you were to start whoever we get if they were they would start by doing that once they've got a system down for doing that move in to help and dylan sell more help and dylan post more online stuff like that of course cool man yeah well glad you came in we're gonna talk a little bit and you know we'll reach out we'll let you know something awesome thank you man of course all right i'm gonna rattle off the ones that i know have sold and i want you to delete those off so starting at the top the breitling did that guy pay for that yeah he's paid for that but we have to locate the person who bought the top time because uh they have the wrong papers to their watch okay go ahead and delete the endurance pro off of there delete the the chocolate day date the rose gold chocolate roman we don't still have a yellow gold daytona do we no the one that you want here no no yellow gold zenith okay delete that one delete my baguette daytona i'm going to keep it delete the white gold olive dial that watch sold yes on that row three of those the white gold sold the black sky-dweller sold and the yellow gold wimbledon datejust sold that vintage omega sold and the vintage omega okay oh do you need to put sell prices on these anything that's on sale go back through and put the normal price that was on it and then in the sell price box put sell because whenever you come to this screen it'll show a little cell sign up there these need to go to polish to polish so put these in the service bay got it dude did you see did you see bitcoin oh you'll be proud you're gonna sell me that watch for 53. i don't know i bought ethereum last night you bought it yeah so you set up a coinbase account well marco made a comment he was like yeah it's going to be the next one impulse bought it so i bought seven coins last night at seventeen hundred and twenty dollars a piece i figured what the hell i'll just put some money into it i had the money sitting in my checking account so we'll do it together i just assume it's just consider it lost money i'm gonna forget about it as well hey what's up uh so i did you see the pictures of the ap i sent you i did yes uh they look clean i mean fairly clean yeah yeah yeah i got the watch back in november as well oh wait there's uh the bezel does it have a gash in the side of it is that like the three o'clock in between the three and the floor clock screw uh just looking at one of the pictures i'm looking at the outer edge of the bezel by the three by the screw that's near the three and the four o'clock oh no not three in the four o'clock you got the watch upside down uh between the nine and the ten what do you mean by a guy you mean like a little stuff yeah it i mean scuffs are okay it's i mean i can fix them it's just if it's a gash if it's like a deep gash also while i've got you on the phone what do you want for it i'm looking just to get into like a day-date i was looking in to get a rose gold but i saw that you had the olive style uh advertised i can't hear you i'm not i'm not sure if you're talking like away from your phone or on bluetooth or something but i can't it sounds like you're underwater hello could you hear me better yes much better so yeah let me send you an up-close picture of it right now just give me a few seconds that's a 15-400 right yeah it's the discontinued model i just sent the picture hopefully you could see it a bit closer yeah it's a little bit of a scav i'm probably going to have to have that bezel late i see a little i see a few nicks and stuff around it so i'm probably going to have to have the bezel lasered just because the bezels like the that's like the selling point of these watches so what do you value the watch out or like how much would you want me to add on top okay so the olive sold the the white gold olive dial that i had sold like instantly i think i probably priced it way too cheap because i saw i saw it last night like you posted it like eight hours ago yeah it sold i had five people call me within 10 minutes so what do you value the watch out what year is it i think it's a 2018 2019 it's definitely not a 2020. i see it pre-owned like 20. to have that bezel lasered i'm gonna say 27 000. 27. yeah 28 maybe 28. i i went to the diamond district here in new york city yesterday just to get some other jewelry for myself and okay i had the watch on some of the watch jewelers were looking at it and i was explaining to them how i wanted to get into a day date and they said bring it in tomorrow with all the papers and stuff and we could work something out so i just wanted to give you a call first though because i i i literally had just finished watching your new youtube uh video yesterday and i saw that you had the olive green so i wanted to see if we could work something out there's no way you could uh get another day-date 40 maybe a rose gold and if so like how much would i have to add on top i've got a rose gold sundust dial i can get another white gold the i actually had a client reach out and wants a white gold as well after i know i sold mine too cheap because i put out a call for him and dealers are asking 36 37 for wholesale it's gonna be in the high 30s now i have this rose gold one i'll send you a picture right now just sent you a picture of this one it's rose gold and it's got this uh silverish sun dust stick dial i think they call it the tuxedo dial because of the pin striping that's a 20 20. and how much you guys do trade-ins or no we do yes okay and how much are you asking for that watch 40 000 40 000 yeah brand new they bring 42-43 for rose gold so this one this one's a january 20 20. you want me to add on top see 20 i would do 28 on yours at 12 grand all right because the most i'm trying to add maximum is around 10 000 that's like my maximum i'm trying to add that's why i was trying to go like the cheaper route by trying to work out something out with the olive dial one that you guys had but yeah there's no way we could work around those numbers and that has box and papers right yes yep i think that watch when it's in mint condition will sell for about 31 000 31 to 32. it's gonna cost me you know a thousand or so to get it get it tip top i'll be out of pocket for a couple weeks with it so yeah the best i can do it'd be 12 grand but you're trading into i mean this prez is it's i mean it's flawless the guy that sold it to us he sold us a bunch of watches at once and he he rarely wears this stuff i'd have to think about it because like i said i went yesterday to the jewelers and they said bring the box and everything and we could probably work something out did they give you a price on anything uh they gave me a price on the watch of 28. okay so i'm right on the money there now what are they gonna yeah now what you need to look at is our you know go shopping around that's fine i don't mind that i figure everyone's gonna do that anyway but my watch is a january 2020. it's absolutely meant it's got all the links no stretch in the bracelet no chips on the crystal the case nothing the watch is i mean it's like new it could almost pass for what they call a slider okay so i mean if you can find a comparable deal make sure it's make sure the watch is the same specs as mine or better one thing to watch out for is them offering you okay i'll give you 30 for your watch but then you got to buy mine at 42. that's the same number as what i'm doing yeah i i like i told you the most i'm willing to add for rose gold is ten thousand dollars that's the reason why i gave you a call first to see if we could just work something out on the olive oil it's gonna be hard on upgrade to rolls gold yet it's going to be hard on rose gold man rose gold's the cheapest you can find any rose gold presidents are about 40 grand i'll definitely keep your offer in mind and i mean if you do somehow maybe you need to move the watch quick and you want to do 10 000 or maybe you s for some reason you can do 10 000. like i'm i'm down to do that as well but i can't take it i'll just take the watch with me to 47th street sure man i understand but yeah it's i've got that watch here on consignment so my my guys set his price on what he wants for it it won't go below 40 000. i just i can't yeah i understand you i understand you cool but you know what check it out go shopping around and when you get some numbers back from them call me let me know all right thank you so much you're welcome cool so just got this in this morning okay yeah it's funny when they wrap stuff like that they're they're getting creative they're trying to wrap stuff up they're sending receipts sending all this kind of stuff so you can so they can tell and i know every ad pretty much watches my video not every one of them but a lot of them to get your thoughts i've got a root beer that i got from a local shop here and i'm looking for a pepsi okay i should get a pepsi pretty soon i didn't want that but i got it do you want to keep the roof here and hope for the pepsi knowing that they may or may not come in the two pieces that you've already got those are good pieces and they're like stepping stone pieces you know when you go to an a.d and you start building a relationship they're not going to jump in and start giving you the gmts and the daytonas and the blue sky-dweller they're going to baby-step it up a sub an entry-level you know gmt those are two really good pieces so i would say give it time you're definitely you're definitely going to get a pepsi so the question is do i sell this to you right now hoping that i get a pepsi or do i hold it i'll give you the answer both ways because i'm a dealer obviously if you so your question is do you sell it to me now or do you hold it the dealer side of me wants to tell you sell it to me now that way you make your money and i can sell this to make money the other side of me says it's again you have to you have it's a gamble you sell it to me there's a chance they could ask you to prove you still have it but i don't think they'll do that based on the fact that you've already got a long relationship with them typically they do that to new people coming in spending a lot of money like me i roll into an a.d and i buy a hundred thousand dollars worth of watches in the same day yeah and then every week i'm texting them hey what else do you have what else do you have what i flag you know i am a flipper to them you've already got a relationship i don't think based on the pieces you've already gotten i don't think they're ever going to ask you to prove you still have this now here's how i buy and sell or here's how i tell my my collectors that want to buy and sell these things and kind of maximize their dollar where they can make profit on one to get into another that maybe doesn't have profit they're sport models you're paying hype prices why would you hold something that's at the peak of its height price hoping for it to go even more now you could it's a gamble but if something's already hyped up to 50 over retail why not cash out yeah you could hold it a little bit longer and maybe make another thousand two thousand if you hold it long enough double but the hype could also the pipe could die i don't think it will yeah i think these things will continue to go up but it's like can you utilize the money i mean you're already making if you if you were to cash this out today i'd buy it for 14 five you're already up 4 500 bucks unless you pay tax i like it okay cool man all right hey yeah thanks for coming in yeah no man uh do you have my cell phone number uh i've been watching you guys i look forward to monday and i've been a

like we hired mike just like we hired darby we all it's always based off of not necessarily skill set performance abilities all that it's honestly it's like it's passion too intuition like gut feeling you reached out to on social media then you text me then you called me and you came here and you know you've just been persistent in doing it a lot of people just call us and they're like can i have a job yeah right and they don't do any kind of follow up i genuinely like hiring people who show passion as well because that's how i started yeah i feel like if you have a you know a strong passion for something everything else will make its way in so that's that's my strong hiring point and i saw that you seemed very passionate about it so that also struck you know a chord with me when you left i had a good gut feeling i was like he may not know anything about watches he may not know how the image he may not even know that much about marketing even though you're in school for it yes sir i don't care it's like we can teach you everything and we will if we know that you're going to show up and not want a free ride which you told us you don't want a free ride you're going to show up and not expect you know what i loved i loved the fact that you were like people just opened the door for me like i'm incapable of it i can open the door for myself i like that because we're not going to give you uh we're not going to open the door for you we're going to show you you asked me how to you ask us how to do something we'll show you how to do it you ask us again because you don't understand it we'll show you but if you keep asking and you keep showing like a you know a willingness to learn it and get the job done that's all we want we'll teach you every bit of the job you're going to be working with dylan dylan is in charge of photographing watches writing descriptions running stuff to to get repaired picking stuff up from polish getting everything online he needs he's got a lot of responsibility yeah he wears a lot of hats for one position we want to delegate some of those hats out you want to start today yeah why not as well we just got a new office um we've been in the works it's upstairs and we're gonna work on getting that set up more appropriately this week but you'll spend most of your time up there with dylan come down here anytime you want i want you to replace him dylan we want to promote dylan up but we can't we can't promote dylan up until you feel that spell until he can until dylan can replace himself he cannot become someone new yeah of course and quit asking for what do you say writing utensil right don't ever don't ever use the word writing utensil [Laughter] thank you man i appreciate it all right welcome to the team chrono 24 pricing is hyper inflated because of all the fake ads out there because they're doing exactly what they want a whole bunch of people put on the put these fake ads with crazy high prices so when a normal person goes on there to value their collection their collection chrono says their collection and their watches are worth way more go pick a hundred or go pick 10 ads on chrono 24 and message the sellers and ask them to buy the watch nine out of 10 of them aren't even available or they just sold so that's even that's even on brand new brand new pre-owned yeah pre-owned i pay less i mean i have i have two pepsi's in stock right now that i've paid 18 and 18.5 for but the 18.5 is fully stickered but i mean yeah you're right the prices do change every single day i'm gonna sell it i'm not gonna keep it but at one point was that thing what what's the highest that that thing has gone like i just want to make sure that i'm like not off my rocker here like was there a point where you were buying those at 20 and solomon for 21 no like i wasn't i'm sure somebody somebody probably was if they had a sold order but i was not now if someone calls me and say hey i'm ready to pay 21 grand for a pepsi today and i call around the only one i can find is for 20 grand then yeah i'll buy it because it's a sold order but to stock it no i would never pay 20 grand to stock one so i mean dude shopping around didn't bother me yeah i don't i mean i'm not really interested in doing that like i i didn't even do it when i sold you my last one like i like your stuff and even if it's a difference of 500 i don't care about that if and i told you i said whenever i get like i was gonna call you i got you well think about it dude no rush um i have to my phone's ringing like 10 times on this call so i got to take some other calls but let me know shoot me a text let me know what you want to do sounds good man take care buddy what's this that's a check for a dial for a dial yeah okay i know of all the uh subs you've kept i think this would be the one what's that we'll use this full tape no there's no name no date no what's our cost on this 425 i know man i was thinking about it because like i just sold my whole collection two weeks ago and i've already bought four watches since craziness look at that that's the new collection platinum daytona sitting right next to this i got a quick question for you i actually watch your youtube videos all the time and i was hoping you could help me out one of the guys here at my job sold me a two a two line um submariner i paid him forty five hundred dollars for the watch and of course it's not the watch i wanted i just wanted to buy it because it was a good price so then i took it to a place called and they gave me uh 6 500 for it i really i really wanted a deep sea but instead of buying deep sea because all my deep seas were 13 14 000 i got a stainless djs it's like the bluish purple arabic numbers and the fluted bezel you know the one i'm talking about it's got it's a datejust 36 no no it's a uh it's the datejust ii it's not the 41. it's the one they discontinued he told me he was selling that watch for ten thousand so i gave him the difference between that amount of money so now i'm into this watch for ten thousand dollars so i've had it for about a week it has watching papers and another guy at another rolex place here came up with it uh he has a deep sea for sale for like 10 7 okay no box no papers so i mean you seem like a really legitimate guy no bull i just want to know i mean is this watch only worth seven seventy five hundred dollars that i bought that i paid ten thousand for yeah i think if we were to buy that one do you know what year it was i think it was the last year they stopped making whatever year that was okay uh 16. so so our buy price on that would be 7 500 we'd probably try to sell it around if it was in excellent condition probably 9 grand so you paid 10 grand for it that's a little bit high but it's kind of you didn't get ripped off because you're you're paying for peace of mind to know that that watch is legit because you've gotten on craigslist and found it cheaper probably could you get on ebay and find it cheaper probably but you're paying the extra for the peace of mind of knowing that it's legit knowing that you're not going to get scammed so so no i don't think they're i don't think they're too high off now all right well listen i appreciate it all right thanks all right good day yesterday yes sir cool one thing i want you to do also dylan get a couple different box sets and i want you guys to start getting familiar with all the pieces that come to this we need more descriptions written for both the website chrono right now if you look at our chrono page you look at our website it's just specs and then how to pay and then our like our disclaimers there's not really a selling point when you're looking at rolex forms you see how it starts up here for tells an excellent condition 40 millimeter 18 karat white gold sub the watches for sell with box does not come with any papers blah blah blah blah blah last factory service you know it tells you about the watch if you look at ours right now it's just what size is it what millimeter what what is it the model number the reference number the price that's not enough it's good but it's not enough i want you to start showing him how to go through here and read are they gonna be listing on rolex forms as well yeah i still don't know how this all works the rolex forms is it five a day you can add new watches five times you could add five you could okay you can post five times or bump you can you can only post or bump five times total a day so you can bump three and post two you can post five and you can it can only be five you can only be five i don't know you can have as many as you want well i mean like yeah you can only do five a day so today you can post five new watches tomorrow you can post five new watches the next day you can post five minute watches but you've got to pick that's why i want you to create a schedule actually that may be something for you mike we need to know which watches are already on rolex forums say there's 20 of them on there we've got 60 watches that means there's 40 not on there i want every watch on rolex forums before you start bumping okay so what all what all of y'all going over here i've taught them right now uh the process of exporting photos so in an ideal world i get here there's new watches that come in i take the photos of them i upload them to lightroom for aj or jet when they get here to go post it on the website followed by chrono followed by ebay trf all the major posting platforms okay cool the next most important thing is descriptions when a watch comes in you're going to get the box and everything we're just going to set it up there with you okay i want them to be able to go through and say look okay it comes with the inner box the outer box the hang tags the green hang tag the red hanging tag the white serial number hang tag the green leather pouch the instruction booklets the warranty card the warranty papers they need to know every part and what it's called bundle up some accessories okay you basically have to go through and write that description with each watch individually no more copy and paste and descriptions you copy and paste the the template but not the description because there's watches on our website that say in the heading they say watch only but in the description in the description it says comes with box papers it's super confusing with clients and it can actually it can cause us an issue you earn the right to keep that watch you don't have to sell it it is going to be hard and you'll never find it i'll never find one god this is the bad thing about this that's why i put everything in the business i put all the watches in the business to sell and then prices go berserk and i'm never gonna see that yeah that's a that's a sweet watch to hold on to that's like equivalent to my 277. it was a quarter i'm going to leave it to fate i'm going to let you call it i keep it if it is what you call okay okay go ahead tails uh-oh no heads that's two or three oh you just want to keep it best two or three okay so i'll call it again heads heads tails hotels all right one more call it in the air tails do you want the answer it's heads well it fell off the table it doesn't count tails heads that's three or five tails i'm not good at this i'm gonna keep it it's a good investment piece this is not a fair this is not how you make financial decisions anyway so i mean this is how i'm just gonna keep the universe was really trying to get you to sell it though it was like yeah see that's satan playing playing the mind game yeah we need to i mean something's got to happen with that office space it's a little bit too bland as it is i was looking at murals what if we did like full on wall murals for the things we should do some city escapes definitely hong kong oh here we go look at this oh wow yes fish tank yes yes yes you can do that on one wall and you can do hong kong on the other and then we'll do maybe a beach boom we're going to do a beach on this on the other wall that's cool can't tell us we can't have a fish tank anymore yeah i mean when we move out we just need to paint the walls white again right that's all well this is a this is a stick-on mural it's like a big sticker how are the reviews any points about it peeling or falling off someone complain i feel bad for the person that complains for a fish mural wallpaper that's got good reviews which beach do you like all of them that's tricky you'll be tired enough you're going to walk into that wall yeah absolutely i like that one right there yeah yeah 100x144 let's get that same size as the other one uh we need to we've got our guy here and we're gonna talk and this you'll know what your idea is uh and make sure he's not on camera so i wanna reverse engineer like let's go two years from now youtube's successful the videos are successful we're building this crowd follow along on this vision so right now we're just on youtube we're captivating this audience people are tuning in every week to and they're like dying to watch our show you guys remember how pawn stars started nobody knew who these guys were it was just some pawn shop in vegas and they were like let's make a reality show out of this because no one's ever done it and now those guys don't even you never even see them in their store i went there one time and it's a line to get in they're not there you can shop but when it's time for them to film they kick everybody out and they film and that's it those guys make so much money off of just the filming they don't even work in the store anymore i don't want to get to that spot but it is going to get to a point where it could get to a point where we're literally in here selling watches to get content for whatever the end goal is what i don't like about what they did was the simple fact that i see these guys on tv and then i go to vegas and i'm like holy sh there's their actual pawn shop this is cool but then when you get in there they're nowhere to be found and you're not going to ever see them i don't want us to get to that point i want us to get to a point where people come from everywhere to come see us to see me to see you to see you to see marco and they want to buy from us and people will buy from us they'll pay for they'll pay more just because of what we put out there i think we're going to get bigger quicker on social media basically than what our money or our inventory supports let's go two years from now and i want to build the plan backwards two years from now we've got store and my vision is that big space over in the crescent on this side it's all a furniture store and there's a fourier out there with the courtyard you can eat this is all empty imagine that's our store and it's all glass you walk in you see our showroom our little lounge and then in the back there's like an actual studio where we film so we'll start incorporating another video so this is this is where we're getting to we've got the store we've got the big beautiful store we've got the showroom the youtube studio we've got all the inventory the step right before that is probably going to be the tv show for the tv show you've got merchandise you've got a lot of people who want to purchase stuff from you merchandise netflix i think you produce your own series you pay for all the production and then you sell it to them right so we can do we could aim for that this could be tv show slash netflix right before we get to netflix tv show we're gonna have to have video content where i think you'll come into play is so darby and i were talking about this right here this part's the expensive part to where it gets to a point where you can go the netflix route now depending on how we want to do it we could do one of two things if we take on an investor that can pay for this we can either produce enough content and quality content to sell it to netflix or our content just keeps getting better and better and better and better and we still keep it on youtube ultimately it's still going to do the same thing it's going to drive people to us which is going to make us more money which is ultimately we'll have to get a bigger store more inventory yadda yadda because people are going to want to come and shop and see us just because of who we are we can't do it in this little space we're right here right now we can keep taking on some investments and slowly build to this but if we had one person we could partner with and marco after that last insulting offer we got yeah i kind of gave up the idea of giving equity to anyone what's the context of this conversation so darby was telling me tell them what you were telling me like like how a whole crew comes together what all it takes so what i was saying if you wanted to up the content we would possibly need to get investors just for that reason just for the production yeah because if you want to pitch to netflix we're going to need people to fill more spots we're going to need like a b camera you can have someone like a script supervisor that literally jots down everything like that is worthy of putting in the edit so it cuts editing time you can get assistant editors that can get me a rough edit to where i can go in and do all the creative stuff um just build a crew man like you know it's reality so we don't really need we're just filming what you do so we don't need like a director i guess where my mind started turning this morning was we've been looking for invent we've been looking for investors to supply us with more inventory what if we flip-flopped it what if we took on an investor it would take a much smaller investment for us to really do a debt and inventory we need a million bucks how much do you think it would take to put in for a production crew for a year long like i'd have to i'd have to like come up with a proposal and like uh because you got to think day rates editors hourly rates usually so it's different rates for a different position how much would it cost to fill those positions for a year i mean we know what we're going to do we know we're going to need the people all four to five days a week right for the next 46 weeks right the idea now is instead of us focusing on investors for inventory maybe we start by getting an investor for this right here and then as the quality of this goes up the same person if it's feasible you fund us on this you also continue to put funds in for inventory the quality of the content gets better the exposure gets better the inventory slowly gets better and better it's a long term play but i i can see where it's going to go because it's going to have to go into bigger inventory bigger space studio all of this if you can see that goal then that's what i kind of want to however we structure it it'd be a short term maybe a loan on this or equity stake in this you can you can still do loans on the inventory but i would say bundle figure out a way where we bundle it all together you're you're ex you're investing x amount of dollars in increments over a period of time for equity but we'll turn the cameras off and we'll talk about it is it any chance i can get a wire off because i tried to send it on my computer and it limited me to 50 000 and then it didn't even send that out yep we can do that for you can get it pretty quick you got the paperwork i'm still that much right now oh you are i have it all on my phone i take care of it for you you got the information yes well even i said my limit was 50 000 in a day okay so i sent 50 000 and then it still didn't uh it didn't go through yeah you sure it didn't go through looking at my account it didn't so what happened when you tried to send me did you say it it's sent online it showed that it sent online oh so then that means that so we have up until three o'clock but that was yesterday though oh yes yeah you can hear me yeah what's going on can you text me that wire information real quick i'm at the bank again right now yeah i'm at the bank again right now thanks buddy yeah i sent it from my computer and said my daily limit was 50 000. so it's like okay 50 000. and then last night i looked at my account it hadn't been pulled out yet and then early like 11 30. sorry am i taking up your no no no you're good i don't do anything or i guess you know what i could just pull a cashier's check that'd probably be easier yeah i'll just do that actually i just thought of that yeah because i got to go to bank of america anyway because that'll deposit instantly not necessarily well it'll just show on his account yeah that's what i'll do i'm sorry about that no no you're fine because i just i don't want to risk it not going out again today you sure yes i don't mind doing it i got to go to bank of america anyway okay so i'll just pull a check and i'll go there hello hey what's up man it's anthony hey anthony what's up hey sorry there was an issue on the wire they like because i've sent it out of my personal account they like stopped it for potential fraud so i had to get that cleared up so you're getting a 50 you're getting a 50 000 wire right now and then i'm pulling into a bank of america to drop a 15 000 cashier's check in there so give it give it 30 45 minutes you should see a 50 000 and a 15 000. i appreciate you man thank you cool dude thanks so i didn't you asked me if i thought it needed to be polished i don't think it needs to be but i let you let you decide i mean if you were going to see anything let me just put my glasses on sure if you meticulously look at it you can see that it's been worn but i don't think it's anywhere remotely close to needing to polish the thing is i probably will never uh sell this i'll keep it so i don't mind polishing it because i'm not worried about right limiting the buyers right now are you uh trained to do this yeah i see marco's name members oh yeah original plan was to get the 60th anniversary rose gold green down yeah but uh i think the white's more of a sleeper it's more of a subtle and uh yeah when you say sleeper because you see all the green downs did you see watch eric's recent video no i didn't but he said gmt that's what somebody uh that's what dylan told me and i was like i'm glad i bought that watch last week i don't know if you follow those the watch trading academy no no i bought their course a long time ago um there's good information as far as buying and selling watches and where to familiarize yourself and how it goes about it but the way cal and pj do it is they teach you to buy special editions everything like these hublot unico 112 [ __ ] that nobody wants and they convince you that it's gonna go up in value because they're because the last known comp was like 26 000 they're offering it to you for 14. i mean they buy those watches at like seven to eight grand yeah nobody even knows who they are in the watch community really except i mean people know who they are because they scam a lot of their clients if they figure out you've got a little bit of money to spend they'll start pushing you into these things that have five ten fifteen thousand dollar margins and uh actually you can put this in there there's good information as far as the educational side getting to start yeah but if they can figure out you've got a little bit of money to spend they'll push you on these watches that no one knows about them they're special editions limited the last known comp was like 25 000 and they're offering it to you for 15. so they're teaching you that there's a 10 000 margin knowing damn good and well that they bought that watch at like 7 500 and you're going to be able you're going to sit on it for months and months and months and it makes sense to you because what they teach you is like if you can put 15 000 into a watch and wear it and sit on it for three months and then sell it for 2500 profit you know you can't make that money anywhere else yeah but that's stupid they're making a lot of money off of you yeah use it for the education but don't buy watches from them because they're yeah all right here you go still loose this actually feels a lot better and i think it's loose enough to where i like it i think that this is good right here you do like it so you know your card booklets are back here the hang tags the link is in there if anything take all the accessories and put them in a little baggie and put them in your safe the card that's gonna that's gonna add a thousand two thousand dollar value to that watch that link's worth about 500 bucks yeah so where are you from uh i'm from chicago but i live in michigan yeah well actually i flew in for this because he was saying he didn't want to hold on to this watch for too long so now that i've met you and i've done it if this happens again you're like yeah i hold it for a couple weeks that's fine but you got to imagine in our business everybody's like oh just hold it for me i'll be there and then they never come up with the money and you never know who you're talking to on the phone so you meet someone so once we've actually met someone and done some business things things are even more relaxed so all right guys that's the end of week six it is freezing cold here in dallas it's snowy it's icy i was out early this morning trying to find breakfast somewhere and everything's closed down you know here in texas we're used to extreme weather but it's crazy how as used to this as we are people still freak out and the whole town seems to shut down so i'm filming again at my house i haven't eaten yet because i can't find food but we got to get this done so wrapping up the week real quick every week our goal is 273 438 and 50 cents for the sales goal we try to hit a week this is the first week of the year we have not hit our goal and we came in at 146 900 which is 46 below but as i mentioned coming into february we kind of expected this it was going to slow down we've also not focused on sales this week we're trying to hire a couple new people which you saw earlier we were moving into office space we're trying to restructure get our taxes and everything in order from the last year so doing a lot more working on the business versus working in it this week and the numbers show that but it's okay we sold seven watches five went to retail two went to wholesale so not a big deal we we planned on it uh if things work out the way we implemented them this week in the next week you know in week eight we're going to triple those numbers i think so moving into some uh announcements so we are going to in the future i would like to start doing national meetups now when we go to la when we go to new york chicago once travel starts becoming a thing again i'd like to organize to meet up so i can actually meet some of you guys and because i get fans from all over the country so to track that what i thought would be a cool idea is i've created a landing page i'm going to link that below where you can go on you can put your name phone email and the city you reside in the most what i'm going to do is i'm going to compile a list of where i have groups of people i've got a group in chicago a group in la a group in nashville a group in miami and i want to compile all this together and let's organize a nationwide meetup by the cities and we'll plan on coming out there seeing you guys meeting y'all face to face having you know collect your conversations stuff like that i think it'd be a great idea so click the link below put your information in there so i can start tracking where everybody's at you guys ask us a lot about the hats we've been trying to figure out what we're gonna do and how we're going to implement this so i think we're just going to do what you want we're going to offer the merchandise up for sale you're going to see that pop up on my website here in the next week or so we've got some photography being done and getting the e-commerce side of that put together but give it about a week and you will see that up on my website the hats will be available speaking of the hats in last week's video i asked you guys to share this video and comment below to see or for the chance to win a hat i've picked 20 of you based on the comments below at random this time and i'm gonna leave those in the description below so you guys know who you are reach out to me i'll put my cell phone down there so you can shoot me a text and let me know you are the owner of that youtube channel and i'll get in touch with you so congratulations and guys thank you for sharing that as well as far as the collector conversations go we want to also start doing another segment where we actually interview one of you guys like we're looking for a collector that has a solid collection and the solid collection does not mean a high price point it means a collection that you've built over a period of time and there is a story behind it there's a story behind these pieces something that you think would resonate with the viewers like yourself so guys if you've got a collection worthy of putting a story out there that has a great story behind it drop a comment below and i want to pick somebody in an upcoming video to do an interview for you so if you if that's you drop it below you have my cell phone number get in contact with me and a couple videos ago we did the youtube winner that's going to be flying out mike uh we've got him scheduled on the 22nd and 23rd or i'm sorry 23rd and 24th of this month to be coming out so look for about video eight or nine i believe he'll be in there he's we're flying him out he's gonna spend the day with us so we're looking forward to that we also keep paying attention we are gonna do that again at the end of that video we are going to announce another one one thing i want to mention is when it comes to collectors watches out there have significant meaning now i bought this 88 gmt pepsi with a tiffany and coast stamp because it was a birth year sub i haven't i've had it for about three months and i haven't really worn it i've been wearing it the last two days trying to grow an attachment to it aside from the fact that it's my birth year and i'll be honest and guys please don't shun me for this i just haven't gotten into it yet so i'm saying that to say that it's a gorgeous watch there's a lot of history here there's a lot there's a very special meaning to it for whatever reason it just doesn't hit me the way i feel like it should to justify keeping it if you are a collector out there and tiffany and co tiffany stamped dials are something you're interested in if the year 88 has any significant meaning to it or to you reach out to me i i'm gonna get rid of this watch i'm gonna sell it but i'm gonna make sure that this actually goes to a true collector's hands and that's what i want i want i want to appreciate it more i just i'm not there yet and i feel like it would be better deserved in someone else's collection that could enjoy it right now not just me having it because it's my birth year so if that's you reach out to me guys if you're following along i hope you love the series based on the comments that we get every week people are loving it they're enjoying it and we couldn't be more grateful the whole team enjoys reading the comments they do it with me we enjoy filming this so if you're following us on this journey we're we've just finished up week 6 of 52 we've got a lot of time left ahead of us and i mean who really knows what's in store for us so you know to tune in every monday morning at 10 a.m we're dropping these videos make sure you like this video make sure you subscribe and don't forget to hit the bell so you're notified next time we drop a video we're also looking in some more videos you guys have been asking for more than one video a week we're gonna go to the drawing board this week and we're gonna brainstorm how to add more videos so guys i hope you enjoyed it and i'll see you in the next one [Music] [Applause] [Music]
