1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.040 Johny Fernandez: What patterns have you seen, especially after 2 00:00:02.070 --> 00:00:05.370 2020, in regards to them focusing on something versus 3 00:00:05.370 --> 00:00:06.900 trying to be a jack of all trades? 4 00:00:07.140 --> 00:00:09.570 Oz Konar: Well, I think people notice that the old the jack of 5 00:00:09.570 --> 00:00:12.510 all trades mentality doesn't really work. You need to niche 6 00:00:12.510 --> 00:00:16.260 down on specific skill sets for you to claim your mountain. If 7 00:00:16.260 --> 00:00:18.450 you're trying to claim the biggest mountain that becomes a 8 00:00:18.450 --> 00:00:22.500 problem until 2020. That was okay, you can get by but now we 9 00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:25.620 know that if you want to survive and thrive, that's more 10 00:00:25.620 --> 00:00:28.380 important. Obviously, you need to define what it is that that's 11 00:00:28.380 --> 00:00:31.230 going to make the biggest impact and the biggest ROI on your 12 00:00:31.230 --> 00:00:33.660 investment, your time and your money and resources. 13 00:00:33.660 --> 00:00:35.570 Johny Fernandez: So for people not here that they're watching 14 00:00:35.570 --> 00:00:38.780 from home, right, what piece of advice would you give them 15 00:00:38.930 --> 00:00:41.930 regarding the specific skill that they should be going at? 16 00:00:42.540 --> 00:00:44.490 Oz Konar: Well, I think they should definitely cling to a 17 00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:46.710 business loan brokerage industry, this industry has been 18 00:00:46.710 --> 00:00:50.040 booming for for a long time. And, and the future is brighter 19 00:00:50.040 --> 00:00:52.440 because of what's happening with the traditional banks, right? 20 00:00:52.710 --> 00:00:55.140 The one thing that people need to focus on I know it's such a 21 00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.590 still a broad word is online marketing. So if you're not 22 00:00:58.590 --> 00:01:01.230 involved with online marketing, any type of online marketing and 23 00:01:01.230 --> 00:01:04.260 within online marketing unless you're niching down into one of 24 00:01:04.260 --> 00:01:07.320 the categories, it could be YouTube ads, Facebook ads and 25 00:01:07.320 --> 00:01:09.660 then Tik Tok ads, as you're going to have great difficulty 26 00:01:09.660 --> 00:01:11.820 because the landscape is changing really fast. 27 00:01:11.970 --> 00:01:14.250 Johny Fernandez: So let's talk a little bit about that when when 28 00:01:14.250 --> 00:01:17.460 it comes to this the the landscape changing fast and 29 00:01:17.460 --> 00:01:20.820 people having to adjust pretty much right, you know, every six 30 00:01:20.820 --> 00:01:23.880 months or every year. What do you say to that and someone 31 00:01:23.880 --> 00:01:27.000 that's having that's struggling? Adjusting? 32 00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:29.820 Oz Konar: Yeah, I mean, every change is difficult, right? So 33 00:01:29.820 --> 00:01:32.100 that happens to everyone whenever something changes so 34 00:01:32.100 --> 00:01:35.040 fast, people will struggle. That's the part of my talk. I 35 00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:39.480 want to show them how they can adjust because the the key is to 36 00:01:39.600 --> 00:01:43.080 learn the skill of learning a new skill. Otherwise you jump 37 00:01:43.080 --> 00:01:45.600 from Tik Tok one day thinking that that's gonna be the big 38 00:01:45.600 --> 00:01:48.000 thing and it changes to something else then you're like 39 00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:51.840 wait, I wasted all this time on this very one tool. Now this 40 00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:54.960 changed but if you can follow patterns, it makes your job a 41 00:01:54.960 --> 00:01:57.870 lot easier to survive and thrive as a business loan broker.
