So so let's talk about a 12 00:00:36.500 --> 00:00:39.400 couple of things. So we spoke about, you know, you being busy, 13 00:00:39.400 --> 00:00:43.300 I mean, it's January. It's part of the Year. Everyone's looking forward to 2023. 14 00:00:42.300 --> 00:00:46.200 So kind of walk me through exactly just 15 00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:48.100 keeping busy keeping clients coming in 16 00:00:48.100 --> 00:00:51.200 getting those deals and wrapping up those deals that 17 00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.100 are a good amount of money. So kind of walk me through. How do 18 00:00:54.100 --> 00:00:55.000 you manage something like that? 19 00:00:55.300 --> 00:00:58.300 It's tough. The inbox is always flooding with 20 00:00:58.300 --> 00:01:01.800 emails. So just try to stay on top of it checking it constantly replying 21 00:01:01.800 --> 00:01:04.100 to people keeping emails open is really helpful. 22 00:01:04.100 --> 00:01:08.300 Just that way. You can go through things throughout the day and using 23 00:01:07.300 --> 00:01:10.100 file storage and things like that to 24 00:01:10.100 --> 00:01:13.000 stay organized with everything. So beginning of the year is fun 25 00:01:13.100 --> 00:01:16.100 because you see the trends and the industry we've seen like, you know, 26 00:01:16.100 --> 00:01:19.200 so many construction deals come in and you see what's kind of hot already this 27 00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:22.300 year and you kind of get to see how it'll 28 00:01:22.300 --> 00:01:25.300 Trend the rest of the year. So so let's talk specifics about that. So 29 00:01:25.300 --> 00:01:28.600 I mean the industries changing drastically. So what 30 00:01:28.600 --> 00:01:31.300 exactly have you seen in regards to Trends? I mean, let's talk 31 00:01:31.300 --> 00:01:34.100 about more details regarding the trends that you've seen so far 32 00:01:34.100 --> 00:01:37.300 this month. Yeah. So a lot of oil and 33 00:01:37.300 --> 00:01:40.100 gas a lot of solar a lot of solar companies and coming 34 00:01:40.100 --> 00:01:43.300 out of a lot of times you see them in Texas, California, but we've 35 00:01:43.300 --> 00:01:46.200 seen them in more west coast states. So that's always 36 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:49.600 exciting and booming industry as always a lot 37 00:01:49.600 --> 00:01:52.600 of construction and Trucking and Logistics see 38 00:01:52.600 --> 00:01:55.100 that pop up quite a bit. So these are trends that we 39 00:01:55.100 --> 00:01:55.100 see 40 00:01:55.300 --> 00:01:59.000 Often but seeing them continue through 2023 is 41 00:01:58.900 --> 00:02:01.100 cool. So let's talk about 42 00:02:01.100 --> 00:02:04.300 being successful in this industry. That's what everyone wants to do. Everyone 43 00:02:04.300 --> 00:02:07.200 wants to make money.

How do you become successful in this industry? I think 46 00:02:13.500 --> 00:02:16.100 it's being available. I think like there's so much 47 00:02:16.100 --> 00:02:19.500 competition in this industry. If you're available, you're answering your tags. You're 48 00:02:19.500 --> 00:02:22.100 answering your calls. You're applying to people quickly. You're gonna get 49 00:02:22.100 --> 00:02:25.300 all those deals if you let things slide and don't keep 50 00:02:25.300 --> 00:02:28.200 on top of the Inbox and things like that. I feel like it's just so easy to 51 00:02:28.200 --> 00:02:31.300 find new lenders find new people in this space to work with who want your 52 00:02:31.300 --> 00:02:34.200 business. So I feel like that's a big thing for us 53 00:02:34.200 --> 00:02:37.000 is just being available. Even if it's taking calls at 8 o'clock at night 54 00:02:37.300 --> 00:02:40.100 or waking up early to get on new intro calls with 55 00:02:40.100 --> 00:02:43.500 merchants and things like that. So availability is key 56 00:02:43.500 --> 00:02:46.400 and then in regards to be in such a male dominated 57 00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:50.000 industry, I mean you and your partner you guys are killing it right.
