0:10.3	Hey, what's up, everybody?
0:11.4	Pat Flynn here and welcome to episode 971 of Ask Pat.
0:14.6	Thank you so much for joining me today.
0:16.2	As always, I'm here to help you by answering your online business questions five days a week.
0:19.8	All right now, here's today's question from Joey. Hey, Pat. This is Joey. I was wondering if you could help me out.
