If I have a project, and I'm looking for something specifically, I'll contact the agents that I know and trust, and tell them what I'm looking for.

If we do a project down the road that's similar to that one, we'll obviously remember, and bring them back. With commercials, they go by so fast that we typically call our agents, the ones that we work with regularly, and rely on them to tell us who's available, who's interested, who we can get from them, and have them come in to see how they do.
