Trey Markel: Broker Fair, especially the New York one, I
got to give it to Sean Murray, the whole deBanked team. It's
just a fabulous show. It brings everyone together in the
community. People are closing deals, we haven't seen each
other for a little while. There's new technology coming
out. There's new funders and brokers coming to the floor. So
this is a great way to bring everyone together, shake some
hands, do some business, and you know, keep it going.
Speaker 1: What's been your biggest takeaway from this
experience so far?
Trey Markel: The biggest takeaway I think I get from
Broker Fair is kind of the knowledge and what everyone's up
to, right. So we're a tech company. We're not a broker,
we're a funder center software offers, you know, technology
into the industry. And the takeaway is really the feedback
for us, you know, hey, clients, how are you doing? What kind of
feedback do you have in the software? How's the software
been going? Are you diving deep into the software? So for tech
companies like us, it's like, Hey, guys, what's what's going
on? How do you feel about what's going on? How can we help you do
more? And that's some of the big learning stuff that we take away
every year from Broker Fair.
Speaker 1: Okay, and what are you looking forward to the most
at this event this year?
Trey Markel: You know, I always look forward to just you know
shaking hands and seeing both current clients and seeing new
clients. It's always great to see what's new in the industry,
what people are up to. So just just, you know, shaking hands
with people that we've seen, or haven't seen for a little while
now. And getting to getting to know new customers is what I
always look forward to every year.
Speaker 1: You did the tech talk, right?
Trey Markel: I did, yeah.
Speaker 1: How did this tech talk go?
Trey Markel: The tech talk went really, really good. We always
hope that that there's more people that show up every year,
as always, but it was really great this year was really
special for Centrex Software, cause we launched some really,
really new, groundbreaking technology for the industry to
help clients become more engaged with their clients. So it was it
was really great. You know, if you kind of look at the eyes of
people as I was talking and I was saying certain things. You
can see kind of the eyes perk up a little bit, because some of
the new tech that we're dropping is, it's pretty cool stuff.
Speaker 1: Do you think coming here and speaking doing your
tech talk, helps your business grow through like connections or
helps you prove to potential clients or potential employees?
Trey Markel: Yeah, speaking at Broker Fair always helps the
brand always helps the business gets our new releases out there.
It's always nice for me to show face with current customers and
potential customers. But we love coming here. We love speaking.
It helps with marketing lead gen, it helps with the brand and
it also helps with the community. You know, I don't
care what industry you're in. It's all about community and
Centrex always wants to be a part of that community.
