So how did you get into TikTok? What's your story there? You've been doing about four years, which is kind of means the whole time.

No one ever remembers this, but they used to play like the most cringe ads and everyone was like making fun of TikTok.

I bought a school bus with a friend because we had all this extra time on our hands.

I couldn't get my CDL and I couldn't get the insurance required to run a party bus business.

So I decided to move into the school bus and find something that I could do from the road.

I had a little bit of e-commerce experience at that point, but while I was traveling, I started working directly with brands, did over 100 million views for different product brands, and that was kind of what led me into the world of TikTok.

Once TikTok Shop came out, just about two years after that, that's when I realized that I was really onto something.

And I was like, Okay, let me take this more seriously, got more into the agency side of things started managing promotional strategies, customer service, doing all the other things that kind of come with it.

And so how old is your agency? Well, how old is Tiktok shop now? Two years, maybe?
