Speaker 1: All right, I'm here with Austin from Commsdepot, right, yes,
Speaker 1: Commsdepot dot com. And I saw the off grid weather
Speaker 1: and that that got me kind of interested in that too,
Speaker 1: So Austin.
Speaker 2: Tell us about what you've got here today. Absolutely, So
Speaker 2: this whole thing started out with off grid weather.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: I basically created a field reference guide which has a
Speaker 2: ton of data for those who go dopoda soda camping.
Speaker 2: It's originally how I why I designed it because I
Speaker 2: go camping all the time, and I found that when
Speaker 2: I was out there and I didn't have cel phone service,
Speaker 2: I needed access to a bunch of reference material. So
Speaker 2: originally built this for myself and it kind of took
Speaker 2: off from there. So this we've been expanding. We've been
Speaker 2: starting to create additional modules that you can get, so
Speaker 2: things like repeater listings for your states. Okay, equipment manuals,
Speaker 2: so like the eight fifty seven for example, the manual
Speaker 2: for that is like one hundred and twenty pages. You've
Speaker 2: been able to condense that down to about about sixteen pages.
Speaker 2: Same form factor goes inside this tiny little binder really
Speaker 2: and then you can just take that into the field
Speaker 2: going camping hiking, coota soda, things like that. You can
Speaker 2: have all that reference material available offline. So that's how
Speaker 2: this whole thing started. And then we transitioned over to
Speaker 2: Comm's Depot, which is a brand new platform. As a
Speaker 2: small business owner, I found that a lot of platforms
Speaker 2: like ets eBay, Amazon, they were very expensive. Yeah, the
Speaker 2: customer service is not great. There's a lot of return
Speaker 2: fraud and things like that happening. So Comm's Depot was
Speaker 2: my attempt at a solution to that. So Comm's Depot
Speaker 2: is essentially a marketplace for small businesses. So we have
Speaker 2: for example, Tim Orts n nine sab all of his
Speaker 2: intendors are on the website. Now he makes these in
Speaker 2: the US, fantastic quality. You can buy them right on
Speaker 2: the website. And so the idea with Comm's Depot is
Speaker 2: basically to provide small businesses and tinkerers and people who
Speaker 2: just have a niche product that they want to sell
Speaker 2: a good platform that's affordable, user friendly, and easily accessible
Speaker 2: to sell their products. So that's kind of the whole
Speaker 2: idea behind Comm's Depot. We have ten different vendors to
Speaker 2: ten different sellers on the platform right now, okay, and
Speaker 2: we're constantly growing.
Speaker 3: I recognize the Mad Gear company.
Speaker 2: I know those guys.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 2: Sam is a good friend of mine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, so he.
Speaker 2: Sells on the platforms JACOBT grid Base. He's a good dude, yep.
Speaker 3: So cool man. Yeah that's great. I have not heard
Speaker 3: of that website yet, so I have to go check
Speaker 3: that out.
Speaker 2: We are brand new this year.
Speaker 3: Okay, good, yeah, good. Thanks for your time, man, appreciate it.
Speaker 3: Thank gus On Good Show, you too.
