1 00:00:04,710 --> 00:00:06,660 Vlad Sherbatov: There is a big difference between seeing those 2 00:00:06,660 --> 00:00:10,230 gaps and also taking that plunge into the entrepreneurial 3 00:00:10,230 --> 00:00:14,940 lifestyle. And that is something that not everybody is willing to 4 00:00:14,940 --> 00:00:19,920 do. And talk about this and talk about your life as an 5 00:00:19,950 --> 00:00:23,250 entrepreneur, did you always have that desire? Or is it just 6 00:00:23,250 --> 00:00:27,090 something that you got inspired into throughout your life? How 7 00:00:27,090 --> 00:00:28,860 did you end up doing this? 8 00:00:29,489 --> 00:00:33,037 Unknown: Yeah, that's a good question. It's definitely not 9 00:00:33,109 --> 00:00:37,526 something I like necessarily was pursuing since graduating or 10 00:00:37,599 --> 00:00:41,437 even earlier, which I know is the case with that some 11 00:00:41,509 --> 00:00:45,999 entrepreneurs. But what I came to observe throughout my career 12 00:00:46,071 --> 00:00:50,343 and working with big companies is that one thing I did want 13 00:00:50,416 --> 00:00:54,978 from my career was working for an organization that was focused 14 00:00:55,050 --> 00:00:59,178 on growth. Because I think that's where you learned so so 15 00:00:59,250 --> 00:01:03,740 much, because you're trying to move quickly, and you're trying 16 00:01:03,812 --> 00:01:08,229 to get new customers and that and to do that you need to find 17 00:01:08,302 --> 00:01:12,646 kind of innovative, and ideas that haven't been done before. 18 00:01:12,719 --> 00:01:17,208 And then when my co founder kind of came to me with this idea, 19 00:01:17,281 --> 00:01:21,626 and said, you know what the Canadian market is behind. We've 20 00:01:21,698 --> 00:01:26,043 seen some of this innovation happening in other markets like 21 00:01:26,115 --> 00:01:30,605 this is the time to do it. And let's I think there's a big gap 22 00:01:30,677 --> 00:01:34,732 and kind of how slow the industry is moving to meet some 23 00:01:34,805 --> 00:01:38,208 of these new customer expectations. And there's 24 00:01:38,281 --> 00:01:42,843 probably a place for us to play a big role here. I was I jumped 25 00:01:42,915 --> 00:01:43,350 on it. 26 00:01:43,620 --> 00:01:45,990 Vlad Sherbatov: Don't forget to subscribe to the Smarter Loans 27 00:01:46,041 --> 00:01:49,287 YouTube channel for more videos that will help you make smarter 28 00:01:49,339 --> 00:01:50,370 financial decisions.
