95
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,320

98
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

99
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 6: So you know, I worked for Fortune one thousand, payroll

100
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 6: and HR services company in San Diego and kind of

101
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 6: twenty fifteen sixteen time frame, you saw we were bringing

102
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 6: on cannabis companies and as soon as we bring them

103
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 6: on and get kicked off, yeah, so you know, I

104
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 6: kind of was like, this is the problem, you know,

105
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 6: and had had an opportunity to visit a few of

106
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 6: these cannabis companies and I was still learning and saw

107
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 6: they were legitimate businesses that needed help.

108
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's a real market. Legitimate is a GIF.

109
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: It's like a T shirt company, like a bakery.

110
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 3: At first, I get it, right, the stigma, everybody's like, Okay, really,

111
00:04:59,360 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: what are you doing?

112
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 2: You know?

113
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 3: I mean that comes with almost the territory, but I

114
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 3: mean at one point there's got to be a shift, yeah, right.

115
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 5: So yeah, so that's what we set out to do.

116
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 6: You know, we set out to help these companies legitimize themselves.

117
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 6: And and so you know, we early on we were

118
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 6: dealing with companies, guys that were operators of you know,

119
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 6: illegal businesses, illegal grows, they were, they were drug dealers

120
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 6: right early on.

121
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 5: And and then you know what it is. I mean,

122
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 5: so these guys were trying to legitimize their business and

123
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 5: you know, there wasn't really an avenue for them to

124
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 5: do it. No one was giving them help.

125
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 6: And if you've ever done pay you know, ever done

126
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 6: payroll taxes, you're hat a process payroll. You know, you're

127
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 6: generally using a service provider, but there's so much going

128
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 6: on behind the scenes. When you don't have access to that,

129
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 6: you're left to, you know, figure it out on your own,

130
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 6: virtually impossible. And then the government this the state starts

131
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 6: to turn. Whether you're in California or any state for

132
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 6: that matter, is legal, the state starts to turn. You

133
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 6: start to be late on penalty. You' starting to be

134
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 6: late on taxes, You're getting late, you're getting late notices,

135
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 6: You're in late penalties. Next thing you know, your license

136
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 6: is in jeopardy. Sure, and that's not right. So that's

137
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 6: a problem we set out to solve, and we did

138
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 6: that around that twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen times.

139
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 4: And I mean, is it a secret trade? But I'm

140
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 4: just so curious, how did you do it? And where's

141
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 4: the I mean, I don't know if you can give

142
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 4: the real secret of how it's done, because let's just

143
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 4: face it, it's not normal in common. You can't just go

144
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 4: to fucking whatever big company's out there and say, hey,

145
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: the Fortune five hundred company that you were working for

146
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 4: that does payroll for this law office, that law office,

147
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 4: this big business, that big business. They can't go there still. Yeah,

148
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 4: so there's like the loop around. It's always a loop around.

149
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 5: Well what you what? We what you? Actually, one of

150
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 5: the big boys paychecks is not a secret.

151
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 6: Everyone knows this, but they're they're publicly held payroll in

152
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 6: hr company. That's the company I worked for as company.

153
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 5: Tyler worked for a.

154
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 6: Lot of we had other boys that and founders that

155
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 6: work there as well. And they entered the They entered

156
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,919
Speaker 6: the industry for about twelve months and then they abruptly

157
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 6: exited and may have this year, and they left about

158
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 6: a thousand clients of theirs just say hey, we're not

159
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 6: going to pay your payroll taxes.

160
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 5: You're on your own figure it out.

161
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 6: Wow, So you can imagine the ship storm that that

162
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 6: caused a lot of operators across the country.

163
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 5: Class I don't necessarily think that. I think they operate

164
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 5: within their.

165
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 2: Graand they probably closed down their business.

166
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, they walked away from the cannabisation. It's a drop

167
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 6: in the bucket for them. They're a multiple billion dollar company.

168
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 6: But there is really no secret. Anybody can do this.

169
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 6: It's just a huge pain in the ass to get

170
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 6: the financial institutions to trust you to.

171
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 5: Have your products in a row.

172
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 6: From your client anti money laundering standpoint, you have to

173
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 6: be in compliant to the Bank Secrecy Act. You have

174
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 6: to have you know, follow up background check protocols and

175
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 6: all these different things of onboarding clients. Oh, by the way,

176
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 6: you know your clients still need service now. They want

177
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 6: to be set up relatively quickly. They want you to

178
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 6: treat them like a traditional business when they're not. So

179
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 6: you're constantly in this fine You're in this balance between

180
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 6: trying to get it right and taking too long or

181
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 6: going too fast for your financial institutions.

182
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 5: So you know that takes a long.

183
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 6: Time to figure out and over the course, and we're

184
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 6: always trying to improve that.

185
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 3: Sure, Yeah, you know, I'm wondering, you know, after being

186
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 3: in it since seventeen right, sixteen seventeen ish, you know,

187
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 3: do you feel it's more of a normalized industry compared.

188
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 2: To I mean what it was.

189
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I I like, you know, I remember them

190
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 3: asking us to pay taxes because I you know, and

191
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 3: we're like, pay taxes on a federally illegal industry.

192
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 2: That's a scary thing to do, right.

193
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 3: You just feel like they're going to just kick your

194
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 3: door down and be like, oh yeah, we're going to

195
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 3: jail for sure. But realizing that they're not, they're not

196
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 3: prosecuting for this, and that they are, you know, on

197
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 3: a state level recognizing it. So how you know, how

198
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 3: much has it changed, you know since seventeen two?

199
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 2: Current times?

200
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 5: It's a whole different world now, Yeah, it's a whole

201
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 5: different world. In sixteen seventeen, eighteen nineteen.

202
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 6: It was a lot of people that didn't trust anybody, right,

203
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 6: and you got to give credit to Colorado. You got

204
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 6: to give states like California credit for kind of pioneer

205
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 6: in the industry and then taking the best practices to

206
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 6: the new newly licensed states.

207
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: Right.

208
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 5: So the the stuff we see.

209
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 6: In New York today, like with New York going legal,

210
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 6: is not like what you saw when California went leads.

211
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 2: Right, people are like.

212
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:21,199
Speaker 5: Let's go.

213
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 6: So there's this there's a level of trust now and

214
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 6: I think that time obviously, you know, the longer we're

215
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 6: in business, the more reputation that we have as a

216
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 6: solid service provider and doing right by our clients. And

217
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 6: I think a lot of companies are experiencing that kind

218
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 6: of You get that benefit of just being in business

219
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 6: for a long time, and and it creates a foundation

220
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 6: for the industry.

221
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 5: So it's a world of difference today.

222
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 6: Businesses have they're more sophisticated, the operators are more sophisticated.

223
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 6: You see a lot of companies come in with highly

224
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 6: sophisticated talent to run their companies. And so you there's

225
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 6: a level of legitimization that comes with that.

226
00:09:59,720 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: Right.

227
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 5: So, yeah, whole different world.

228
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 6: And I think where we're going to be in five

229
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 6: years is going to be another another whole differ world.

230
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

231
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

232
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 3: We we always tell people that, you know, the cannabis

233
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 3: industry is like dog years, right, because you know, it

234
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 3: happens so quickly, and and and you don't realize, you know,

235
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 3: the the growth of these companies.

236
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 2: And some of them don't come back right.

237
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 3: They come out and they disappear because they just they

238
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 3: couldn't make it, or or their their their business skills

239
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 3: sucked because they're from the illicit market or whatever you

240
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 3: know market you want to call it. But I think

241
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 3: there's there's there's a huge shift happening, you know, because

242
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 3: a lot of these new companies now they do have

243
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: you know, college educated you know that are running these

244
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 3: these corporations. They they're running it more professionally. I think

245
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: they're trying to keep the books correct, you know. I

246
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 3: still think there's some backdoor stuff going on. Absolutely, yeah,

247
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 3: I mean, and I don't know.

248
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know if that I'll ever to

249
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 4: be honest with you, Well, I mean, I mean, it's cannabis,

250
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 4: where like maybe.

251
00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 2: With alcohol industry, is it.

252
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't think I think tobacco, know it's

253
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 4: not because they're mass producing a milk Marlbrool and the

254
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 4: big companies came in alcohol, the big companies. Maybe the

255
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 4: big companies come in and there's not But I just

256
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 4: really foresee cannabis always because we can grow it in

257
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 4: our backyard. Dog, and you may be a great grower

258
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 4: and you're selling some crazy bomb that like that.

259
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 2: Blues is just you. I mean, like you can grow

260
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 2: hops in.

261
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 4: Your backyard too, But alcohol is not like that.

262
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 2: I mean, how about this.

263
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 4: I remember growing up in my boys, my Portuguese homies,

264
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 4: they always had some crazy liquor that their famili's made, right,

265
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 4: So like my Portuguese buddies, those are the ones that

266
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 4: had the homemade lind shine. Yeah, we would go and

267
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 4: get their pops and grampa shit. But so my point is,

268
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 4: I think some people still do. But with cannabis, I

269
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 4: think it's still gonna be an abundance of that, always

270
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 4: having that market because I just do. Will it be

271
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,839
Speaker 4: so cheap that you can get an eighth for thirty

272
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 4: bucks probably the other store. Yeah, but there's still gonna

273
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 4: be those people that the neighbors showing it right down

274
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 4: the street and it's like, oh my god, my boy

275
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 4: has some killer.

276
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 2: I don't even need to go to the dispensary.

277
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 6: I think eventually though, you know, eventually, what you're seeing

278
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 6: in the marketplace is that the cost.

279
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 5: To produce it.

280
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 6: Like I've I have like nine plants in my backyard

281
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 6: and one of them is like twelve feet tall and.

282
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 4: Is a limit that's get over their ladies and gentleman,

283
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 4: if you're the l A p D. Please now no

284
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 4: longer a hair brushed his ass over the legal limit anyway,

285
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 4: public surface announcements mark the limit, do tell you six?

286
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 6: Right, we're finding yeah, so so much worse, is it?

287
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 5: Really?

288
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: Yeah?

289
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, we kind of do a show called Cannabis.

290
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 5: You guys should know that. So yeah.

291
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 6: I mean, I think the cost to produce this stuff

292
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 6: is not it's not an expensive It takes a lot

293
00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 6: of time and ever, so I think what you're gonna

294
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 6: see is people will just go like, hey, it's convenience.

295
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 5: It's gonna be convened, right. Is what is a part

296
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 5: I'm getting? Is it? Is it gonna pring uce the

297
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 5: same outcome for me? Right, And That's why I'm gonna

298
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 5: go buy it.

299
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 6: And cost necessarily doesn't matter as much as long as

300
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 6: I get the desired effect.

301
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 5: From whatever whatever as I'm getting.

302
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 6: I mean, the obviously the consumer will take care of

303
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 6: the costs of demand and to supply, right, and.

304
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 2: Let me go of this we're gonna break real quick.

Speaker 4: Elevated Global Supply the highest standard packaging. Elevated Global supplies.

317
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 2: Your preferred parking partner, excuse me for packaging from design

318
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 2: to delivery.

319
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 4: Check out their website egspkg dot com.

320
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 2: Of course that's elevated Global Supply.

321
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 4: We're sitting here with Mark and Tyler, the founding members

322
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 4: of Greenleaf Payroll and Business Solutions. Before we went to break,

323
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 4: I asked you guys, as I read on the cover

324
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 4: of this web page of your guys, is integrated Payroll

325
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 4: and HR services partner not provider.

326
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 2: It's a big statement right there. What do you guys

327
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 2: mean by that and das okay, go ahead. It's sim

328
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 2: said no, I was.

329
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 5: Just gonna say.

330
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 7: I mean from a partner, not provider. In the payroll industry,

331
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 7: everybody has. It's a commodity, especially when you talk about

332
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 7: a paycheck or an ADP some of these fortune one

333
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 7: thousand companies. It's not necessarily and we say this all

334
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 7: the time, a high direction I support.

335
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 5: You know.

336
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,119
Speaker 7: Again, it goes back to like what we talked about, Well, yeah,

337
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 7: cannabis is a traditional business. They got to abide by federal,

338
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 7: they got to bide by state. But then there's a

339
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 7: whole other layer of being where it's just coming out

340
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 7: of being essentially a league in a certain states, and

341
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 7: you just at the end of the day, have to

342
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 7: give that high direction high support.

343
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 5: Be a partner, be.

344
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 7: Able to keep in mind where that client or that

345
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 7: operator wants to go. Do they want to become multi state,

346
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 7: do they want to become vertically integrated?

347
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 5: You know, what is their plan?

348
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 7: And be able to build around them and just be strategic,

349
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 7: whereas a lot of times providers is just hey, we're

350
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 7: gonna process your payroll and that's it.

351
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 5: They don't get that, yeah, and that's just a mistake, and.

352
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 2: So you're helping them figure out exactly what they're doing when.

353
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 3: You can provide it with a more of a white

354
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 3: glove service. If you're hyper focused on this industry.

355
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 5: We're investing.

356
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 6: We're invested in their success, right, right, We're invested in

357
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 6: their success, and I think that if their success is

358
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 6: our success. One thing I always say internally to our

359
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 6: to our staff, managers, directors is that it's not good

360
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 6: enough that we do our best.

361
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 5: We must do what's required. Sure, right, we've all been

362
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 5: in that situation.

363
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 6: We're using a vendor, whether it's you know, whether it's

364
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 6: a cell phone company or naming whatever, where.

365
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 5: You get that phone call some says hey, I saw

366
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 5: your email. I'm on it.

367
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 6: This will be taken care of today a little bit extra, right,

368
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 6: It gives you the peace of mind.

369
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 5: You're like, Okay, it feels good.

370
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 2: This is why I work with we respond or whatever exactly.

371
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 5: So we aim to do that in every situation that

372
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 5: we possibly can.

373
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 6: And it's always a pursuit, right, and that leads into

374
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 6: other things of us trying to always be better and

375
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 6: our systems, our processes, our customer service.

376
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 3: So you know, that's that's what driving us a standard

377
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 3: exactly keep a car carry a standard. Let me ask you,

378
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 3: is this do you guys have to carry a certain

379
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 3: license in order to operate in this space?

380
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 5: For you?

381
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 6: No, So that's interesting about payroll companies. There's a lot

382
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 6: of and there's a lot of a ton of documentation,

383
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 6: there's a lot of shit. You Well, what ends up

384
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 6: happening too, is you know, you impound tax dollars? Is

385
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 6: a payroll company, you're sitting on sometimes millions of millions

386
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 6: of dollars of payroll tax dollars, whether that's you know,

387
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 6: like a few to sueye stay, unemployment insurance, all these

388
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 6: different taxes that you're paying the state and the and

389
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 6: the federal government, and that money sits in a trust

390
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 6: sure right, so.

391
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 5: You're you're in control of those things.

392
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 6: And there is nothing today on a federal or state

393
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 6: basis that regulates payroll companies in particular, which is most

394
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 6: people don't know that.

395
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 2: But no, yeah, that's crazy.

396
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 3: And and also can you so then you can operate

397
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 3: within any state?

398
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, well you're supposed to have a money service licensing.

399
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 5: There's different things that you need to have, you know,

400
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 5: in place.

401
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 6: I don't want to make it seem like it's tapas

402
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 6: or anyone could do payroll.

403
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 5: It's a highly complex industry.

404
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 6: But in terms of like a federal license or some

405
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 6: kind of like you know, like you would pass the

406
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 6: bar to become an attorney or a lawyer or something

407
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 6: of that extent.

408
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: No, wow, Yeah, So walk me through this process.

409
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 4: Say Blue and Eye have a dispensary, and you know,

410
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 4: what do we have to do or what can you

411
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 4: guys do for us? Walk us through a whole scenario

412
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 4: and situation. And I want to know rates too, because

413
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 4: sometimes I feel like when I've heard about companies like

414
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 4: this that are dealing with the cannabis space, I mean,

415
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 4: it just is what it is, folks. The rates are higher, period.

416
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 4: I mean, you can't just fucking walk in to the

417
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 4: paycheck company that you guys used to work for and say, hey,

418
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 4: I want to do this.

419
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, well good luck, They're not going to do it.

420
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 2: But we can do it.

421
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,719
Speaker 4: But we charge a lecture because it's more work for us,

422
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 4: and we have to do all these loops and this

423
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 4: and that. It's just what it is in the space,

424
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 4: which sucks for everybody, and I feel bad for everybody.

425
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 2: But let's give the real numbers of what it looks like.

426
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I would say on the front end, with

427
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 7: a client reaches out or preferred, we get a lot

428
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 7: of our business from financial institutions because they know the

429
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 7: due diligence. They feel confident that we've vetted clients that

430
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 7: they're working to operate correctly and they're not necessarily somebody

431
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 7: that's trying to cut the corners. So if a client

432
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 7: reaches out refer to us, we take them through a discovery.

433
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 7: That's where it goes back to where do you want

434
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 7: to be? What are the goals? What is your six months,

435
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 7: twelve months, what do you see potential hiring? You know,

436
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 7: on the upside maybe medium, like, what is that going

437
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 7: to look like for your organization? Kind of get buy

438
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 7: in from what people need to be a part of that.

439
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 7: So whether that's an IT team, your HR team right now,

440
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 7: you're recruiting a talent team, whoever those are. We want

441
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 7: to make sure that what we're going to show them

442
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 7: is going to meet their need or solve that problem.

443
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,919
Speaker 7: So long term, it's not like they're going to have

444
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 7: to reinvent the wheel and backtrack, So we take them

445
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 7: through that at conversation. Then we go into a demo.

446
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 7: This is where we're a little bit different. Is we

447
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 7: actually have a full department that does They're a part

448
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 7: of our sales team, but also a part of our implementation.

449
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 7: Our goal is to not have where a client is

450
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 7: passed around to ten different contacts to try to get

451
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 7: something over the line and get payroll set up. We

452
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 7: want to know whether they say yes or no to

453
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 7: working with Greenley. We want them at the end of

454
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 7: the day to know their business. Then walk them through

455
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 7: our system. What that's going to look like for their employees.

456
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 7: Does it seem like something that is easy for them?

457
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 5: How does this compare?

458
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 7: Then go into those other teams and departments. Hey, what

459
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 7: if you've been looking for here's how that would look.

460
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 7: Is this something that's an improvement. Is this something you

461
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 7: know similar to your process today that we can streamline.

462
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 7: Then we go and after that we go into kind

463
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 7: of that cost breakdown, and we really boil it down

464
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,959
Speaker 7: simply to four different options, whether that's just a simple

465
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 7: payroll because you're a smaller operator not necessarily needing extra support,

466
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 7: all the way up to you know where we provide

467
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 7: an HR.

468
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 5: Consultant to work inside the business.

469
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 7: Provide retirement so four one K for their employees that

470
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 7: benefit administration.

471
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 2: So you guys do all that, then that's awesome.

472
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 7: So we do that as well and just kind of

473
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 7: figuring it out. Another big thing, we don't do contracts.

474
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 7: We got to earn your business every time we process

475
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 7: your payroll, and and a lot of in the industry

476
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 7: kind of into those contracts. Well, if somebody messes up

477
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 7: your taxes, why should you have to stay with them? Yeah,

478
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 7: that doesn't make sense.

479
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 2: That's horrible.

480
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 5: So at the end of the day.

481
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 2: But you're in the contract, you're contract, but just.

482
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 5: They're just gonna cost you eighty grand to get out

483
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 5: of the contract. Yeah, exactly.

484
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 7: And hopefully next time we don't mess up those tax

485
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 7: dollars and your license isn't in jeopardy.

486
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 5: But that's why we're proud.

487
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 7: We've had a ninety eight percent client with attention over

488
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 7: the last six years that we've been doing this for

489
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 7: operators across the country. It is because it's because they

490
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 7: can leave at any time. So that's where you know,

491
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 7: our people respond, give that piece of mind all of

492
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 7: those things, and and it'll also allows operators to be

493
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 7: able to maybe add those services at a later date,

494
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 7: so kind of move up. Maybe they have you know,

495
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 7: where they've lost their HR department or you know, some

496
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 7: turnover occurred. They can get that support, but then drop down,

497
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 7: you know, to meet their budget that they've kind of

498
00:21:58,720 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 7: forecasted for.

499
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 3: Do you provide like the standardization you know HR, you know,

500
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 3: for their whole company or just is that something you

501
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 3: would come in and identify and.

502
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 2: Say, hey, this is what you guys need.

503
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 4: To Yeah, watch those video. Do this video everybody.

504
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 6: So we have companies that you know, unfortunately right now

505
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 6: in the industry, you guys know you're you're in touch

506
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 6: with the industry enough to know it's it's it's a

507
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 6: little it's brutal out there, right especially in California. Yeah,

508
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 6: And typically companies when they start to make difficult decisions,

509
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 6: the people they're going to lay off and not laying

510
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 6: off salespeople, they're going to be laying off people in

511
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 6: the back of the house. Typically those people in the

512
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 6: back of the house, they're looking at payroll professionals, they're

513
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 6: looking at HR staff, They're looking at those people they

514
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,160
Speaker 6: can eliminate and try to automate some of those positions.

515
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 6: That's the unfortunate reality of the of the game that

516
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 6: we're playing, right, So, you know, we have clients are

517
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 6: in those positions and they're saying, hey, we need help

518
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,360
Speaker 6: because we had to eliminate you know, five of our

519
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 6: people that handle benefits payroll HR And we're able to

520
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 6: step into the step into those roles, whether it be

521
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 6: through leveraging technology or leveraging our internal people to help

522
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 6: them not miss a beat.

523
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 2: Is it big and small doesn't matter everything.

524
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 6: So we have clients that are you know, one employee

525
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 6: pre license that are just getting going, just got banking.

526
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 6: We have clients that are thousands and thousands of employees

527
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 6: work with the largest cannabis companies in the world.

528
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 2: Wow.

529
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 4: And speaking of banking, is that something you guys can

530
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 4: do for clients out there?

531
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 6: We aren't a bank, right, but I think that I

532
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,239
Speaker 6: think what's what is unique about the cannabis industry and

533
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 6: kind of just like traditional business, that each kind of

534
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 6: business is going to have each kind of bank or

535
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,239
Speaker 6: financial excution is going to kind of have their own

536
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 6: appetite for certain type of types of clients.

537
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 5: Right.

538
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 6: Some banks are going to charge you a lot on

539
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 6: transactional fees. Some are going to do this or offer

540
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 6: certain products that are more advantageous for your business. And

541
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 6: what we like to do is when a client comes

542
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 6: to us, because we're going through such an exhausted discovery process,

543
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 6: we just we're able to find, Hey, you're probably going

544
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 6: to be a good fit for this bank. In terms

545
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 6: of bank or banking. We're alllatively agnostic. We just try

546
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 6: to direct our clients to the company or the financial

547
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 6: institution that's going to do and be the rest of

548
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 6: the best fit for them.

549
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 2: I'll let you know, like, Okay, yeah, these ones, they

550
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 2: they're good. They're letting them go through there.

551
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 6: These are the these are the banks that's going to

552
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 6: be probably most advantageou from a fee standpoint, from functionality standpoint,

553
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 6: based on our conversation with your finance team, they're going

554
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 6: to want to have some of this functionality. We probably

555
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 6: recommend if you're asking us to go to the bank,

556
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 6: we're not making upfront recommendations, but they ask us, maybe

557
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 6: we probably suggest you go work with those guys.

558
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 2: That's good. What about processing? Are you guys helping them

559
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 2: with processing as well?

560
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 5: Payment processing?

561
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 6: Yes, so we were agnostic when it comes to payment

562
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 6: processing as well.

563
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 5: So in that case, we're going to refer to refer amount.

564
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 4: But yeah, but you guys have the partners that can

565
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 4: align all that up. Because you're dealing my payroll. It

566
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 4: just kind of seems like it's hand in hand with

567
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 4: businesses that of course it's not your business, but it

568
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 4: goes hand in hand with the business.

569
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 6: Yeah, and it's payment processing one of those things that

570
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 6: you know sell MasterCard the big big issue earlier earlier

571
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 6: this month, and you know these things are going to

572
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 6: continue to be a problem.

573
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 5: So yeah, we we.

574
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 6: Tend to refer them out to companies that we know

575
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 6: have solid operators, kind of leading leading the charge.

576
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 7: What I would say too, I mean the other thing,

577
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 7: like the broker community, So on the insurance side, we

578
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 7: know those people that and we say this internally to

579
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 7: our staff and even working with our clients, is we've

580
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 7: been committed to cannabis from day one, So we don't

581
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 7: really do traditional we don't work in that space. We

582
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 7: focus highly on just cannabis because if you try to

583
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 7: be the master of everything, you end up being the

584
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 7: master of nothing. Sure, and you end up not being

585
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 7: as that that expert consultant for your clients too.

586
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 2: I mean, you guys are hearing what's happening over here.

587
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 2: You hear what's happening over there, and then someone comes

588
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 2: over with this problem. You're like, listen, you know that solution.

589
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 8: I mean, and if you had you know, fifty other

590
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 8: companies or fifty other industries for that matter, that you're

591
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 8: working with that aren't in the cannabis space. You know,

592
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,159
Speaker 8: your folks that that whoever that rep is talking to

593
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 8: that client may not know what you know.

594
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 2: They might take them days or months to figure out

595
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 2: what they're talking about. Whereas you guys are.

596
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 5: Like, yeah, we're going we can make the recommendations straight away. Yeah,

00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,120
Speaker 5: there's no hesitation each.

598
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 2: Now have you guys noticed that is there certain banks?

599
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 3: I know we just went on the bank, but like,

600
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 3: is there is there one one, three banks that you

00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 4: you've been in this game, So do you guys have

630
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 4: a name or what? Do you recommend a few banks

631
00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 4: that you can throw out?

632
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean as for financial institutions banks, you have

633
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 7: a couple and you have ones that essentially they have

634
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 7: the banking relationships, but they're doing the compliance ford. So

635
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 7: so many banks either you got the federally charted banks

636
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 7: that they're not going to get into it that could

637
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 7: jeopardize and we know how the federal stance is on cannabis.

638
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 7: But then you have a lot of credit unions. Those

639
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 7: are underneath the credit union. Yeah, the credit unions end

640
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,919
Speaker 7: up being so a great credit union that we've worked

641
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 7: with and've gotten to have a great relationship is Credit

642
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 7: Union One. They're a great group of guys. They really

643
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 7: are you know, highlight. They will do lending, they will

644
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,719
Speaker 7: do you know, their transaction fees.

645
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 5: All of those things.

646
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 7: End up being a lot better reasonable reasonable exactly, and

647
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 7: you can kind of scale with them.

648
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 5: So they're a great solution. I would say.

649
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 7: The other two that we've worked with for a long time,

650
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 7: know a lot of their team DOMA financial What they

651
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 7: do is they essentially do the compliance arm for their

652
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 7: banking partner. So they handle all that that allows that

653
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 7: bank or their credit union to not have to bear

654
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 7: that burden of overhead salary, all the compliance soups that

655
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 7: they would have to do to bank cannabis.

656
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 5: So that's their value prop.

657
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 7: They have banking relationships, work with one exclusively and that's

658
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 7: what they do.

659
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 5: So we work with their.

660
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 7: Team a lot of times as that extra option. Another one,

661
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 7: Green check Verified, they have.

662
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: Oh that's our guy.

663
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 5: We've had them on here before.

664
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 7: I think his name was Yeah, Yeah, I know who

665
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 7: you're talking about.

666
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: Asian.

667
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, he's a great resource in the industry. But

668
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 7: for Green Check Verified, they do the same thing, except

669
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 7: they have a process where they work with thousands of

670
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 7: credit unions and those that have been friendly to the space.

671
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 7: They do all the technology, they do, that vetting they

672
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 7: do where essentially all transactions that that cannabis operator is

673
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 7: doing from sale with consumer everything, they're tracking all that

674
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 7: reporting to the bank so the bank can do their

675
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 7: portion and of what are called stars they're KYC so

676
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 7: suspicious activity reports based upon what that number is. And

677
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 7: they're a great group because they have those relationships and

678
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,239
Speaker 7: they kind of take that same approach of what's going

679
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 7: to be the best for you is a local credit

680
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 7: union where you reside, because that's going to be your

681
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 7: focus is to stay and have that local footprint. Then

682
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 7: this bank's going to be great. Are you going to

683
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 7: be multi state? We don't want you to outgrow that bank.

684
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 7: So let's look at some of these options. But like

685
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:31,479
Speaker 7: Cojin Bank is another one. So there's just there's If

686
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 7: people are saying there's not options, that's a misnomer.

687
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 5: There definitely are options.

688
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 2: But it depends on what your company is.

689
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 4: Like you said earlier too, you need to find out

690
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 4: what their company is doing, what they're looking to do,

691
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 4: and how they're expanding. Because it's just face it, some

692
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 4: of them are monsters, Like I know that on your

693
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 4: website trusted by cannabis industries. You guys have medmen on here,

694
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 4: cookies I mean Lowell Farms and other big companies out here,

695
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 4: Mohabi Cannabis, smoker edibles, just a bunch of random and

696
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 4: some big names that are on here that are like, wow, okay,

697
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 4: you guys are playing with some heavy hitters.

698
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, we we have massive MSOs. I think when when

699
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 6: we go back to banking too, it's if you don't

700
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 6: know ask somebody, right, ask somebody. I think that the

701
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 6: cannabis community has to be a little bit smarter in

702
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 6: terms of being a consumer, right Like, typically when you're

703
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 6: gonna go buy something as an individual consumer, you're gonna go, Hey,

704
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 6: you're gonna go ask your buddy or girlfriend.

705
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 5: Or hey, like what do you think about those guys?

706
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 6: And there you know that that needs to be something

707
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 6: that happens in the cannabis industry a little bit more

708
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:31,959
Speaker 6: like ask for references.

709
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 5: Ask for references, and.

710
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 6: If someone's not willing to provide them or can't give

711
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 6: them to you, you know.

712
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 5: What I mean?

713
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, so you know we we we try to

714
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 6: provide references at green Leaf upfront to all a lot

715
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 6: of our clients before they even ask for them, because

716
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 6: it's difficult. We know that trust is hard to earn,

717
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 6: especially for financial institutions.

718
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 5: So find someone that's used in a bank.

719
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 3: Well, I think you bring up a good point because

720
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, nowadays, almost all of us, if

721
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 3: you know, especially like if we're buying something online or

722
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 3: you're looking for something, you know, if it's something I'm

723
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 3: interested in and I see it, I'm going you know what,

724
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 3: I like this? Let me go check to see if

725
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 3: there's any reviews, or see if there's anything that might

726
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 3: reflect you know, this isn't real or this is something

727
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 3: that you know because I buy things online and it's

728
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 3: a gadget.

729
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:22,239
Speaker 2: That I like, and I'm like, oh, that's a cool

730
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 2: little gadget. And then you look it up and it's like.

731
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 3: Show never came, didn't get it, and you're like okay,

732
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 3: or you're like, no, I got this. I got this,

733
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 3: And you know, obviously, you know, people out there are

734
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 3: capable of putting together you know, reviews and staying on

735
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 3: top of it. But I mean typically, you know, you

736
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 3: can start diving deep and then if there's nothing there,

737
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 3: you know that it's probably a little sketchy too, you know.

738
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 2: So I like that, and I think that if.

739
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 3: You guys probably are getting referrals from some of your

740
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 3: guys's other clients too, saying hey, look we work with

741
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 3: these guys that are on point. They stay on point,

742
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 3: and it reflects, so that's why you're here.

743
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you guys, I think for those that are

744
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 4: out there that are looking to get yourself some you know,

745
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 4: payroll help or just some HR help or just some help. Overall,

746
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 4: it looks like these guys, Mark and Tyler are able

747
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 4: to help you official like a referee with a whistle.

748

Speaker 6: watch this and we could smoke it. We could smoke something.

1014
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,320

1015
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,920

00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 5: a little while ago and she had a great time.

1021
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 5: So you know, my mom is one her my grandfather,

1022
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 5: her dad, he's dead, but he I love to smoke
