Step back a little more than a century as electricity was being commercialized.

I had spent a part of 2022 trying to break into electric signage (my background as an owner and a manager) as a vertical market for my consulting services. Being persistent, I’m not giving up on that market, at least not yet. Hopefully, I can rely on pure selling instead. I had also gained very little traction toward that goal.
