1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.080
Alright, so welcome back.

2
00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:02.760
So we've been talking to different people here at the

3
00:00:02.760 --> 00:00:04.085
B2B Finance Expo.

4
00:00:04.085 --> 00:00:05.965
You're here with Danny. Danny, I know you,

5
00:00:05.965 --> 00:00:07.365
you're familiar face at the bank.

6
00:00:07.585 --> 00:00:08.605
The people that are watching

7
00:00:08.615 --> 00:00:09.925
don't know you introduce yourself.

8
00:00:10.305 --> 00:00:11.805
Uh, my name is Daniel Nevsky.

9
00:00:11.905 --> 00:00:14.085
I'm the CEO of Aspire Funding Platform.

10
00:00:14.585 --> 00:00:16.565
Uh, we've, uh, we're kind of a newer shop.

11
00:00:16.565 --> 00:00:18.045
We've been around for almost two years now,

12
00:00:18.105 --> 00:00:20.285
but we've, uh, really grown

13
00:00:20.345 --> 00:00:22.565
and, you know, stormed onto the MCA scene.

14
00:00:22.565 --> 00:00:24.525
You know, I've been in this space for a long time, so,

15
00:00:24.905 --> 00:00:27.045
you know, uh, it's not my first time at the rodeo,

16
00:00:27.145 --> 00:00:28.845
but this is a little bit of a newer venture.

17
00:00:28.945 --> 00:00:31.925
And, uh, we run a multi-book funding platform.

18
00:00:32.145 --> 00:00:33.805
Um, and the way we're set up, it allows us

19
00:00:33.805 --> 00:00:36.365
to fund the widest range of deals within this space.

20
00:00:36.415 --> 00:00:41.325
We're doing, uh, Texas, we're doing it tins, Puerto Rico,

21
00:00:41.705 --> 00:00:43.405
pretty much every industry out there.

22
00:00:43.635 --> 00:00:46.925
Auto sales, trucking, construction, marijuana, you name it.

23
00:00:47.185 --> 00:00:48.885
The other things we don't do are New York

24
00:00:48.905 --> 00:00:50.125
and Cali sole props.

25
00:00:50.125 --> 00:00:52.485
Otherwise, you know, it's at my underwriter's discretion.

26
00:00:52.485 --> 00:00:54.885
And it allows us to fund, you know, like I said,

27
00:00:54.905 --> 00:00:56.445
an incredibly wide range of deals.

28
00:00:56.945 --> 00:00:59.765
Um, our commission structure allows us to pay, you know,

29
00:00:59.945 --> 00:01:01.525
the largest commissions in the industry.

30
00:01:02.185 --> 00:01:05.885
Um, and, uh, it's a very ISO centric, I come from a,

31
00:01:05.885 --> 00:01:08.405
like an ISO management side of the, of the business.

32
00:01:08.465 --> 00:01:10.925
So the whole, the whole way I have it set up is, you know,

33
00:01:10.925 --> 00:01:12.485
to be as ISO friendly as possible

34
00:01:12.485 --> 00:01:14.805
and for the system to communicate with the ISOs directly

35
00:01:14.805 --> 00:01:17.405
as much as possible, um, in a way that you don't see

36
00:01:17.405 --> 00:01:19.605
with a lot of companies or someone from like an underwriting

37
00:01:19.605 --> 00:01:21.805
background or something, you know, you know,

38
00:01:21.805 --> 00:01:22.805
when they would start a company.

39
00:01:22.945 --> 00:01:25.445
So, you know, we try to make it as, as easy to use

40
00:01:25.445 --> 00:01:27.925
as possible, as lucrative as, you know, as lucrative

41
00:01:27.925 --> 00:01:29.125
as possible for the ISOs.

42
00:01:29.125 --> 00:01:31.125
And, uh, you know, we try to do as great

43
00:01:31.125 --> 00:01:32.725
of a job on our underwriting as possible as well.

44
00:01:33.025 --> 00:01:34.645
So what makes you this, what makes you guys different?

45
00:01:34.645 --> 00:01:36.245
I mean, you guys, you just said that you,

46
00:01:36.305 --> 00:01:37.685
you give the biggest commission,

47
00:01:37.685 --> 00:01:38.845
but what would you say, uh,

48
00:01:38.845 --> 00:01:40.765
makes you stand out versus competitors?

49
00:01:41.365 --> 00:01:43.125
I mean, aside from the commission, which is, you know,

50
00:01:43.205 --> 00:01:45.485
I think that brokers in general, um,

51
00:01:46.035 --> 00:01:47.645
they really worry about, you know,

52
00:01:47.645 --> 00:01:49.125
three different things I think when they're,

53
00:01:49.315 --> 00:01:51.045
when they're looking at signing up.

54
00:01:51.185 --> 00:01:53.485
So, you know, it's who's their boy?

55
00:01:53.485 --> 00:01:55.125
Who do they trust, who do they, you know,

56
00:01:55.735 --> 00:01:57.365
enjoy doing business with on that end?

57
00:01:57.365 --> 00:01:59.125
You know, and who's gonna pay them the most commission

58
00:01:59.345 --> 00:02:00.445
and who's gonna make it as easy

59
00:02:00.465 --> 00:02:02.045
as possible to, to fund the deal?

60
00:02:02.145 --> 00:02:04.885
So I try to do as good

61
00:02:04.885 --> 00:02:06.725
of a job in all three of those things as possible.

62
00:02:06.785 --> 00:02:08.125
And, um, I think we do,

63
00:02:08.785 --> 00:02:10.565
and I think that sets us apart in a lot

64
00:02:10.805 --> 00:02:13.245
of ways from other shops, uh, you know,

65
00:02:13.745 --> 00:02:16.205
who maybe don't think about those things when they're,

66
00:02:16.205 --> 00:02:18.005
when they're running a, a business, you know?

67
00:02:18.185 --> 00:02:21.565
So coming to B2B Expo, coming to an event like this, um,

68
00:02:21.585 --> 00:02:23.045
how is it beneficial for your business?

69
00:02:23.845 --> 00:02:25.685
I mean, it's, it's great. It's, it's, you know, this,

70
00:02:25.685 --> 00:02:27.205
this business is all about relationships.

71
00:02:27.865 --> 00:02:30.045
Um, it's very, very relationship driven.

72
00:02:30.395 --> 00:02:31.445
It's very word of mouth.

73
00:02:31.625 --> 00:02:33.885
Um, you know, if you do a good job for somebody else,

74
00:02:33.885 --> 00:02:35.205
they're gonna know someone who's,

75
00:02:35.205 --> 00:02:36.285
you know, they're gonna recommend you.

76
00:02:36.305 --> 00:02:38.325
And I think that, um, coming to the bank

77
00:02:38.325 --> 00:02:39.565
and establishing a presence,

78
00:02:39.585 --> 00:02:41.165
and even if it's not like to get,

79
00:02:41.205 --> 00:02:42.285
I know we were talking about this before,

80
00:02:42.285 --> 00:02:43.925
even if it's not always to get new signups

81
00:02:43.925 --> 00:02:46.005
and stuff like that, it's about seeing the people

82
00:02:46.005 --> 00:02:47.125
that you're doing business with

83
00:02:47.185 --> 00:02:49.365
and, you know, establishing that relationship

84
00:02:49.365 --> 00:02:50.565
and nurturing that relationship.

85
00:02:50.625 --> 00:02:53.525
And I think that, you know, from whatever side of, you know,

86
00:02:53.585 --> 00:02:54.965
the, the space you're on, you know,

87
00:02:54.965 --> 00:02:56.445
there's all these new data companies

88
00:02:56.445 --> 00:02:58.165
and stuff out here, it's, it's beneficial

89
00:02:58.225 --> 00:03:00.285
for anyone you know, know to come to these type of events.

90
00:03:00.385 --> 00:03:02.685
And you guys always do such a good job throwing 'em.

91
00:03:02.685 --> 00:03:04.965
And you know, like, uh, as much as I hate having

92
00:03:04.965 --> 00:03:06.845
to travel out to Vegas and leaving my wife

93
00:03:06.845 --> 00:03:08.965
and kid, you know, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

94
00:03:09.025 --> 00:03:10.605
You know? So Sorry babe.

95
00:03:11.545 --> 00:03:13.165
That's awesome. So let me ask you this.

96
00:03:13.465 --> 00:03:14.885
Um, what would you say to someone

97
00:03:14.885 --> 00:03:16.085
that's ever been to this event?

98
00:03:17.065 --> 00:03:19.045
Um, sign up for the next one.

99
00:03:19.145 --> 00:03:20.885
You know, come out here, check it out.

100
00:03:20.905 --> 00:03:22.925
You know, there's a, you know, it's,

101
00:03:23.115 --> 00:03:24.645
it's, it's a good environment.

102
00:03:24.795 --> 00:03:27.445
It's, you know, it's a good time aside from it like being

103
00:03:27.445 --> 00:03:29.045
good for business, it's a good time, you know,

104
00:03:29.045 --> 00:03:32.365
and, uh, you know, this is this, this, this industry has,

105
00:03:32.425 --> 00:03:35.325
you know, so many cool, interesting people that you know,

106
00:03:35.325 --> 00:03:37.925
even if you're, even if like it's a competitor

107
00:03:37.945 --> 00:03:40.085
or someone that you know you're not even gonna do business

108
00:03:40.085 --> 00:03:41.565
with, it's nice to come and meet people

109
00:03:41.665 --> 00:03:43.325
and, you know, see how different people,

110
00:03:43.465 --> 00:03:44.645
you know, in the business do things.

111
00:03:44.645 --> 00:03:46.405
And you know how you can kind of take that back

112
00:03:46.425 --> 00:03:48.965
and, you know, incorporate that into, you know,

113
00:03:48.965 --> 00:03:50.125
your brand to cash advance.

114
00:03:50.285 --> 00:03:52.085
I think that, you know, it's,

115
00:03:52.195 --> 00:03:54.525
it's beneficial no matter which way you look at it.

116
00:03:54.525 --> 00:03:55.845
Yeah. Awesome brother. It's always great

117
00:03:55.845 --> 00:03:57.005
to have you on here, meet Johnny.

118
00:03:57.185 --> 00:03:59.565
And then definitely something key takeaway is that,

119
00:03:59.825 --> 00:04:01.605
you know, definitely beneficial to network

120
00:04:01.705 --> 00:04:03.685
and meet new people as you try to grow your business.

121
00:04:03.785 --> 00:04:06.045
So again, thank you so much for that piece of advice.
