That was about two and a half three years. Kids pay a lot of money for that kind of stuff. So like math to come on to you because it’s cute. Long story short about two and a half years later that turned intoĢ00 employees in the company working teaching tutoring students on your medical pre-med classes you’re pre-med. I turned it online I started tutoring kids to St. So that was I was very passionate about teaching people one on one. So I ended up not being able to do that because no one was handing out jobs and I ended up running an online tutoring company because I really teaching. You know you don’t really have any degrees in like business or marketing or anything like that. You know I was I was thinking OK I’m going to go get myself a nice government job I’m Canadian so you need to get a degree for someone with degrees in sociology. So it collapsed you know and everyone knows and we and you know everything went sideways. I finished 2008 to get it before the big collapse. I was I was out of graduate school which was which was scary. And then about eight to 12 weeks later I get it back and BAM. He’s like they don’t need your master’s degree. He said Can you write 200 pages on any subject. Like I’ve heard beforehand so I said Well can I like how can I get out of this situation. He’s like well if you want to go into academia you’re going to be doing this for about 40 years. And I said well what do you think I should do. And he turned to me and said you’re not good. And then I remember going back to my supervisor and I told my supervisor I don’t think I’m very good at this. Ended up I think at the end of the year I lost about a third of my class from people dropping out. I ended up being absolutely horrible at it. Students and one of the persons working with me on it and I thought oh man I’m going to have just fantastic. So we had I was teaching a class of round Leave it was like 200 ish And the reason why they get asked is because you’re really cheap and. And in your second year of graduate school they start to give you classes. in sociology down there and I was really excited about becoming a professor and going into academia that was what I wanted to do. So I ran a I was actually at a I guess a graduate student and I was a lecturer at a university. What were you up to where were you and how did you get started. Well take us back to before you were starting up these companies and stuff. But for those that want to make that type of investment it’s it’s big. You do that until you really know that it’s something that you can forward with. It’s an interesting exercise to kind of go about trying. They just respond more because they see the domain and they think to themselves oh that must be legit. And these are people that are not associated with one brand or the other. dot com and we’ll send her e-mails through Leaman’s dot dot com. We’ll send 100 e-mails through you know limit time Dr. Another big component of having a high end domain name when you e-mail people cold and I’ve run this experiment myself. So that also for those people that don’t know it like it. So we just we just bought the domain cash. He got on the pot and we said well you know we can give it to you all in cash. People like to keep pushing us towards the be all same. So he’s trying to push us right as some people like to do people. And then six months later the guy came back saying Hey I have another buyer. And then about six months later we basically said we’re going to hold off and we’re going to see whether we can all buy the product and figure out whether we’re going to achieve product market fit.
Well I mean we originally negotiated I think the private was for 20 and then we really wanted it and we had my staff dot com as an. Karen negotiations back and forth and at the end of the day we kind of got ripped off for both.
We had to go here a very interesting process to be able to actually get it took about six months. Yes it costs about half a million dollars. Everyone likes to talk about that domain name. But sometimes that actually gets kind of frayed as well as I do the same jobs a lot of times but I’m very happy to be here. I’m actually CEMO – my co-founder Rob is the CEO of the company. Well I have to ask about a domain name and a bit too I’m sure because that’s very exciting one. He’s the founder and CEO of Time Doctor.
