Introduce yourself for those that don't know you Sure.

1
00:00:02.060 --> 00:00:03.040
And the company that you're with.

2
00:00:03.100 --> 00:00:06.280
All right. Mike Brooks, owner of Best Connect Capital. Uh, we're a small,

3
00:00:06.570 --> 00:00:11.040
small broker marketplace and the MCA and private finance space,

4
00:00:11.060 --> 00:00:15.240
as well as other financial services. And, um, you know, we've been at it since,

5
00:00:15.340 --> 00:00:17.000
uh, 2017.

6
00:00:17.020 --> 00:00:21.880
We went in business and I've been in the industry since 2015. And, um, I'm here.

7
00:00:22.060 --> 00:00:23.520
You know, I'm, I'm, I'm here.

8
00:00:23.780 --> 00:00:26.560
What's been you experienced so far this morning? What, what's, what's the vibe?

9
00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:28.120
Like, what's the, what's the energy like?

10
00:00:28.820 --> 00:00:33.720
Um, you know, I, I feel, I feel like some of the key players are aren't, um,

11
00:00:33.980 --> 00:00:38.920
in attendance or, so it's just a funny time in, you know, the economic space.

12
00:00:39.220 --> 00:00:42.600
Um, I have picked up a couple of funding companies that I,

13
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.080
I need a niche for like low revenue trucking companies.

14
00:00:46.080 --> 00:00:50.240
I found one over there doing the minimum of 25 k a month. And, um, you know,

15
00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:53.080
I've definitely, uh, like every broker fair I've been to, you know,

16
00:00:53.150 --> 00:00:56.720
I've always found some resources that can definitely intermingle.

17
00:00:56.740 --> 00:00:58.360
So that's shortly why I come.

18
00:00:58.860 --> 00:01:01.720
So let's talk a little, a little bit about that. So for those people that are,

19
00:01:01.750 --> 00:01:05.320
that, you know, need help with their business, uh, and that they need a network,

20
00:01:06.100 --> 00:01:08.760
why is this place important to come to and how has it helped your business?

21
00:01:08.820 --> 00:01:11.080
Oh, this, it's tremendously helped my business. I mean,

22
00:01:11.080 --> 00:01:15.800
I used to work for a funder back in 2018 and I got one of my biggest ISOs in the

23
00:01:15.800 --> 00:01:20.680
San Diego Broker Fair. Um, and there's a lot of aspects to the industry,

24
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:23.920
you know, marketing, um, different things of marketing, text marketing,

25
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:27.160
email campaigns, different types of leads, different types of funders.

26
00:01:27.340 --> 00:01:30.360
So when you come here and they're all set up at the table, um,

27
00:01:30.360 --> 00:01:32.720
rather than having to go on the phone and, you know,

28
00:01:32.720 --> 00:01:36.480
wondering who's who you're here to see, who's who. Um, all the,

29
00:01:36.660 --> 00:01:39.040
the pamphlets are in black and white and it's always,

30
00:01:39.350 --> 00:01:41.800
I've always had good results at Broker affair. Yeah. Yep. Awesome.

31
00:01:42.180 --> 00:01:45.440
So what, what panel are you interested in hearing, uh, to today?

32
00:01:45.440 --> 00:01:48.200
Because there's a lot of different conversations going on, uh,

33
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:50.640
regarding the panels, you know, a lot of wealth of knowledge.

34
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:52.840
So which ones are you interested in checking out today? Well,

35
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:56.080
I just checked out some of the earlier ones. Um, you know, I always,

36
00:01:56.080 --> 00:01:58.560
like I said, I always pick something up. Um, I'm currently,

37
00:01:58.620 --> 00:02:02.400
I'm not active on daily funder. Like you see me, I'm on LinkedIn a lot. But, um,

38
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:04.560
you know, Sean Murray was saying that like, look,

39
00:02:04.600 --> 00:02:08.640
a lot of ISOs get other ISOs that are getting their deals done on daily funder.

40
00:02:08.640 --> 00:02:09.360
And quite frankly,

41
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:13.360
that's I something I've been looking for because the MCA industry's like a

42
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:16.400
revolving door. Somebody comes in every day and somebody goes out every day.

43
00:02:16.580 --> 00:02:19.680
So I'm looking to see who's coming in and I want to utilize my industry

44
00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:23.520
experience and help other growing companies out, you know, by, you know,

45
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:26.600
fund getting their deals funded and showing them the different aspects of the

46
00:02:26.600 --> 00:02:27.340
process of the deal.

47
00:02:27.340 --> 00:02:30.680
So I'm gonna go on daily funder and I'm gonna start looking for these ISOs now.

48
00:02:31.180 --> 00:02:34.880
And as a shop owner, you know, I've seen the panel, um,

49
00:02:34.890 --> 00:02:38.560
where United Capital Source and a couple of other guys were speaking about like

50
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:41.720
how they manage, and I picked a couple of things up from there too. Nice. Yep.

51
00:02:41.720 --> 00:02:44.880
So Mikey, thanks so much for stopping by. Appreciate it, man. Thank you so much.
