1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.810
Johny Fernandez: With this man.

2
00:00:00.900 --> 00:00:01.710
Isaiah Clark: Thanks for having
me.

3
00:00:01.740 --> 00:00:04.350
Johny Fernandez: So kind of talk
to me, your're an underwriter,

4
00:00:04.380 --> 00:00:06.840
your're a senior underwriter
being at an event like this,

5
00:00:06.870 --> 00:00:08.010
what does it mean for you?

6
00:00:08.970 --> 00:00:11.220
Isaiah Clark: It's awesome, you
know, being able to continue to

7
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:14.370
help different businesses and
connect with other brokers that

8
00:00:14.370 --> 00:00:18.000
can, you know, help us continue
to branch out all over the

9
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.970
country. And since different
businesses, that's why we're

10
00:00:20.970 --> 00:00:21.270
here.

11
00:00:21.300 --> 00:00:23.820
Johny Fernandez: So gladly, kind
of walk me through where home

12
00:00:23.820 --> 00:00:26.040
base is for your company, and
how long you've been

13
00:00:26.040 --> 00:00:28.760
Isaiah Clark: I've been
underwriting for about two

14
00:00:26.040 --> 00:00:26.850
underwriting for.

15
00:00:28.850 --> 00:00:33.260
years. We're based in Hartford,
but we've but we service loans

16
00:00:33.260 --> 00:00:37.550
all over the country. Mainly
focusing on MCA is I'm part of

17
00:00:37.550 --> 00:00:42.350
the GM funding, direct side of
general merchant funding. So the

18
00:00:42.350 --> 00:00:45.020
other side would be more of the
more of where the brokers

19
00:00:45.440 --> 00:00:49.070
communicate with other lenders
as well. But my side particular,

20
00:00:49.070 --> 00:00:53.420
we are the in house lending
portion. So we can fund deals up

21
00:00:53.420 --> 00:00:57.740
to 50,000, for the time being
terms as long as terms of up to

22
00:00:57.740 --> 00:01:02.120
120 days, things like that. But
it definitely depends more on

23
00:01:02.120 --> 00:01:05.060
the deal, and you know, how we
can can help this specific

24
00:01:05.150 --> 00:01:05.630
business.

25
00:01:05.670 --> 00:01:07.650
Johny Fernandez: So let's talk a
little bit about this event. I

26
00:01:07.650 --> 00:01:10.560
mean, what's been your what's
your expectation for this day? I

27
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:12.900
mean, this has been in the works
for two years, you know, we have

28
00:01:12.900 --> 00:01:15.510
people from all across the
industry. So what's your

29
00:01:15.510 --> 00:01:16.530
expectation for today?

30
00:01:17.110 --> 00:01:20.320
Isaiah Clark: Just getting a lot
of business cards out a lot of a

31
00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:23.410
lot of our name out, you know, a
lot of it's a lot of

32
00:01:23.440 --> 00:01:27.190
opportunities here to speak with
people and brokers all over the

33
00:01:27.190 --> 00:01:30.490
fair that we don't speak to on a
regular basis. So definitely

34
00:01:30.490 --> 00:01:31.630
trying to take advantage of
that.

35
00:01:31.710 --> 00:01:34.470
Johny Fernandez: Awesome. And
then so far, what's been the big

36
00:01:34.980 --> 00:01:37.590
debate of the panel, the
discussion that you're looking

37
00:01:37.590 --> 00:01:38.610
forward to the most?

38
00:01:39.750 --> 00:01:41.940
Isaiah Clark: The discussion I'm
looking,

39
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:45.060
Johny Fernandez: Like New York
law, we also have like the big

40
00:01:45.060 --> 00:01:48.030
broker culture event, you know,
we have the main event. So is

41
00:01:48.030 --> 00:01:50.700
there anyone that specifically
you're you're looking forward to

42
00:01:50.700 --> 00:01:50.880
the most?

43
00:01:51.930 --> 00:01:54.810
Isaiah Clark: Particularly the
broker culture, I'm an

44
00:01:54.810 --> 00:01:57.720
underwriter myself. So the more
I get familiar with how they

45
00:01:57.720 --> 00:02:00.480
work and how they like things,
you know, better for both of us.

46
00:02:00.540 --> 00:02:02.190
Johny Fernandez: Awesome. All
right man. Well, thank you so

47
00:02:02.190 --> 00:02:02.880

48
00:02:02.960 --> 00:02:03.980
Isaiah Clark: All right thank
you as well.
