Preparedness and willingness to put in the effort when you're starting your sourcing journey on. What I mean by that is there's a lot of businesses that want to continue doing business as usual, where they just say, Hey, I want let's say water bottle right And they'll say, I want a water bottle and has to be insulated And it has toe pertain, heat and the cold for six hours. And those are all my requirements. Well, they'll approach the factory with that. They'll say, Oh, I want this and I want, you know, 500 start off and I promise I'll get bigger and this and that is something that the factory has heard and has been given to go around a few times, at least to say the least. Um, the issue with that is that as soon as the factory receives that they're probably receiving a dozen other requests exactly like that. That air just sort of not really well thought out. I don't know what you want for packaging. Do you need a private design on it? What colors are you looking for? Um, you know, what is your ideal target pricing? Because that, of course, has to do with quality. The cheaper that Ugo, it's it's hands down. Always gonna be a cheaper product. I mean, that's just natural right. Itt's taking all these facets of a project and spending a few hours and putting enough thought into them that if a manufacturer receives them, they can say, Okay, they want, you know, a double wall insulated, uh, tumbler. And they need their own logo on the bottom of it, and it has to have a stainless steel trim to it. And it has to have a Matt finishing, and it's going to come in a double pack and we're gonna have a blue in a pink for maybe a his and hers. Um, and that packaging is not gonna have their logo. It's just gonna have a sticker with their company brand on it. They want 500 to start. You know they have a budget of 8 to $10,000. It's something that not enough businesses they're doing when they're approaching suppliers on let's say Alibaba on, and that one thing is always gonna be preparedness
