My name is John Galindo. I'm with Velocity Capital Group. Uh,

7
00:00:23.320 --> 00:00:25.840
I've been in the industry for about 10 years. Uh,

8
00:00:26.180 --> 00:00:28.560
so far this has been a great experience. You meet a lot of people.

9
00:00:28.910 --> 00:00:30.320
It's a great way to, uh, network.

10
00:00:30.940 --> 00:00:33.760
So what's been your favorite part about Broker Fair so far this morning?

11
00:00:34.550 --> 00:00:37.920
Just meeting new people. Just, uh, you know, the acquaintances.

12
00:00:38.780 --> 00:00:41.520
So walk us through, I mean, this is an event that it's,

13
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.480
it's crucial for the MCA space, for the alternative finance space.

14
00:00:44.630 --> 00:00:46.360
What could someone get out of joining and,

15
00:00:46.360 --> 00:00:49.120
and participating in this type of event? Well,

16
00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:51.120
the main thing you're gonna find is you're gonna, you're gonna meet new people.

17
00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:56.000
You're gonna getting new, uh, Camera.

18
00:00:56.220 --> 00:01:00.160
Are you gonna, uh, no, you're just gonna, again, it's just networking.

19
00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:02.160
And it's all about networking. The more people you meet,

20
00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:06.760
the better it's gonna be. The more doors that are gonna open, more business,

21
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:10.880
you're gonna get. Awesome. And from all your years of,

22
00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:14.520
of being in this industry, uh, how has this impacted, you know, your, your,

23
00:01:14.800 --> 00:01:18.600
your business book? Well, it's, again, it's,

24
00:01:18.600 --> 00:01:21.160
it all all comes down to networking. The more people you meet,

25
00:01:21.160 --> 00:01:23.880
the more business you're gonna get. Uh, since I'm on the lenders side,

26
00:01:23.980 --> 00:01:27.200
I'm gonna meet a lot more brokers. Relationships I wouldn't meet, say,

27
00:01:27.270 --> 00:01:29.720
over the phone or, you know, maybe they wouldn't sit with me,

28
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:32.840
actually see face to face with somebody. And, and again, it's,

29
00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:37.240
it's a new way to, um, just gather new business. All right, John.

30
00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:39.080
Well thank you so much. Really appreciate it. Pleasure, likewise.
