Motivated by the arrogance of a business rival (alien.top)

Just a quick rant: I’m currently starting a company and was looking for local manufacturers in my country for the goods. We have exactly one company that also offer a franchise approach. Thought I should give him a call and ask for some more details. Old guy answered the phone and was super arrogant from the begging and judged for trying to start in the industry at my „young“ age. Tried to be nice and keep talking to him but he did hang up mid sentence.

End of the story: Realised that I dodged a bullet trying to partner up with him. Also found out he imports too and way worse quality. So I’m more motivated than ever to start the business and be his competitor.
