1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.680 Sean Murray: All these brokers that you're meeting with, like, 2 00:00:01.680 --> 00:00:04.620 what are they telling you now? Because I hear one side of the 3 00:00:04.620 --> 00:00:07.230 story. And sometimes they're telling me, they're telling me 4 00:00:07.230 --> 00:00:10.230 what they want me to think or what they want me to know, 5 00:00:10.260 --> 00:00:13.650 because they knew who we are. But that conversation between 6 00:00:13.650 --> 00:00:16.860 you and them in a private room about you know, what's going on, 7 00:00:16.890 --> 00:00:19.830 right? Probably a little bit of a different dynamic, like, what 8 00:00:19.830 --> 00:00:22.710 are they telling you like, like, yeah away from, like, the 9 00:00:22.710 --> 00:00:23.760 cameras and all that? 10 00:00:25.340 --> 00:00:27.462 Andrew Altschuler: Interesting, they're still telling me, and I 11 00:00:27.510 --> 00:00:30.404 do believe them that business is good. I think they say that 12 00:00:30.452 --> 00:00:33.250 business is good. And I do believe that I think it is. But 13 00:00:33.298 --> 00:00:36.385 I think what their pains are, is just trying to work through the 14 00:00:36.433 --> 00:00:39.520 marketing a little bit. And what I've seen also a trend and guys 15 00:00:39.569 --> 00:00:42.270 of having more success, and we talked about this is some 16 00:00:42.318 --> 00:00:45.212 overseas marketing guys are trying that, and I think they've 17 00:00:45.260 --> 00:00:48.347 had growing pains with it. But I think it's starting to kick in. 18 00:00:48.395 --> 00:00:51.000 So I think there's a perfect storm of pandemic ending, 19 00:00:51.048 --> 00:00:53.701 lenders starting to get out there and more feeling more 20 00:00:53.749 --> 00:00:56.499 confident, they're master lenders are more confident, and 21 00:00:56.547 --> 00:00:59.345 some of the overseas stuff is starting to work. So I think 22 00:00:59.393 --> 00:01:02.239 that they're seeing that, but it's always the phone calls I 23 00:01:02.287 --> 00:01:04.940 get from brokers all the time, Andrew who are using for 24 00:01:04.988 --> 00:01:07.979 marketing days, Andrew who are using for marketing these these 25 00:01:08.027 --> 00:01:11.162 days. I need a leads guy, I need leads guy that I'm still getting 26 00:01:11.210 --> 00:01:13.767 that phone call, but not as much. So I think guys are 27 00:01:13.815 --> 00:01:16.854 starting to figure that out. I don't know if you're looking for 28 00:01:16.902 --> 00:01:19.796 a negative or a positive. I'm not like those guys. Yeah. But 29 00:01:19.844 --> 00:01:22.931 the positive feedback is I think guys are starting to figure out 30 00:01:22.979 --> 00:01:25.825 marketing and technologies become more, you know, you don't 31 00:01:25.873 --> 00:01:28.719 have to be such an expert to operate technology. Yeah. Some 32 00:01:28.768 --> 00:01:31.758 of these ISO broker owners have guys that can do the marketing 33 00:01:31.806 --> 00:01:34.700 for them and they can figure it out. We don't have to hire a 34 00:01:34.749 --> 00:01:37.160 leads company or hire a marketing company. I think 35 00:01:37.209 --> 00:01:40.199 they've gotten better at it. So I think that's the change that 36 00:01:40.247 --> 00:01:42.755 I've seen is guys are more responsible for their own 37 00:01:42.804 --> 00:01:45.650 independent marketing and I think that's what excites them.
