- I was a sales associate (сотрудник отдела продаж) at EF Hutton.
- The broker? Really? And now you're in the tire business.
- That's right and auto supply (поставка). In the retail (в розничной
торговле), as I understand. Uh we get about 60% of our business from
automotive service.
- And do you mind me asking what kind of sales you did last year just, uh,
ballpark (в среднем)?
- We did 1.7 million in total revenue (валовый доход).
- 1.7 that's great and, uh, what do you project for this year?
- I think we're gonna have a banner year (рекордный год). Sales are up
almost 20% in the first quarter. And we just landed (подписали контракт
с) a major trucking company account.
- Well that didn't look great, that's terrific. So that puts your watch just a tad
over (немного выше) two million.
- That's right and that would make us number one in our market. Excuse me,
I'm gonna get a glass of water.
