1
00:00:00.140 --> 00:00:04.680
We have the man, the another fellow Minnesotan. Hey, how's it going? I'm

2
00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:05.680
Excellent, man. Good to see you.

3
00:00:05.900 --> 00:00:09.680
See you. Absolutely. For sure. All. So for those that don't know you,

4
00:00:09.740 --> 00:00:10.573
who are you?

5
00:00:10.620 --> 00:00:14.120
Uh, Mike Mozza. I'm with Dedicated Financial. I'm on the sales team.

6
00:00:14.270 --> 00:00:16.520
Been around, uh, three years in the industry,

7
00:00:16.700 --> 00:00:21.000
and so dedicated does portfolio servicing M C A collections,

8
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:23.760
U c C enforcements and Nationwide Legal. So,

9
00:00:23.820 --> 00:00:26.520
So let me ask you this. We're here, we've talked to you in New York.

10
00:00:26.650 --> 00:00:30.320
We've talked to you in San Diego, uh, in Miami. Now we're in California. Yeah.

11
00:00:30.460 --> 00:00:32.960
So what's, what's been the biggest benefit of you,

12
00:00:33.020 --> 00:00:34.400
of you and your business coming here?

13
00:00:35.070 --> 00:00:39.920
Well, de Bank is like the premier conference in this space, right. You know,

14
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:44.800
we get to see all of our friends, our existing clients, uh, prospects.

15
00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:48.160
We're meeting new folks, and then like obviously tons of industry friends,

16
00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:48.400
right?

17
00:00:48.400 --> 00:00:52.120
We got Keith behind the camera here who's joined us on the Dominican Republic

18
00:00:52.120 --> 00:00:56.160
trip. And, you know, we got Johnny Fernandez and we got, you know, other,

19
00:00:56.260 --> 00:00:59.760
you know, vendors here that have just become life lifelong friends. And so it,

20
00:00:59.760 --> 00:01:02.760
it's, it's been great. Uh, it's a, it's a fun community to be a part of.

21
00:01:03.140 --> 00:01:04.880
So let's talk about California. I mean,

22
00:01:04.880 --> 00:01:07.800
what have you seen in regards to the patterns, uh, you know,

23
00:01:07.800 --> 00:01:10.320
of clients here in California versus New York and Miami?

24
00:01:11.140 --> 00:01:15.680
Um, you know, I guess it probably is a little bit smaller of a market right?

25
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:20.320
Than, uh, New York, but, uh, you know, growing just like Miami is, right? Um,

26
00:01:20.540 --> 00:01:23.680
but we got, we got a handful of customers down here. I, I was doing, uh,

27
00:01:23.860 --> 00:01:26.800
you know, client and prospect visits yesterday. So, uh,

28
00:01:26.800 --> 00:01:30.400
between this and I think SoCal, you know, uh, that Irvine area, like there's,

29
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:33.280
you know, tons of people in the space that are around here. So, uh,

30
00:01:33.310 --> 00:01:35.320
it's definitely worthwhile coming out here. Awesome,

31
00:01:35.460 --> 00:01:38.460
Brother, man, thanks so much for joining us. Absolutely. Appreciate it. Oh,

32
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:40.140
one more question. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Sure. All right.

33
00:01:40.410 --> 00:01:43.740
Give me your best Minnesota, Minnesota accent. 'cause we just spoke with Hannah.

34
00:01:43.960 --> 00:01:46.860
Oh, okay. And she said big. Oh, not big, big.

35
00:01:47.210 --> 00:01:50.860
Yeah. Oh yeah. Don't you know, up there in the, um,

36
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:53.100
the northern part of Minnesota, you know,

37
00:01:53.150 --> 00:01:57.340
we're up there where we got our bags and we gotta, we gotta have our hot dish,

38
00:01:57.340 --> 00:02:01.340
