A few weeks ago, 13 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,880 Speaker 3: probably like a couple of months ago. Actually, we started 14 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 3: because people always ask to all the time, like how 15 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 3: do I get on the podcast? How can I get 16 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 3: on the podcast? So we have a variety of different 17 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,160 Speaker 3: ways to bring people on the podcast. Like some people 18 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 3: we know personally, some people get referred to, some people 19 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 3: we reach out to. So what we wanted to do 20 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 3: also is to have like kind of like like open 21 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 3: audition for lack of a better word. Whereas we do 22 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 3: Instagram Live and then people just come on and then 23 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 3: they just talk, and then it's like they got a 24 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 3: compelling story and something that we haven't covered. It's like, 25 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 3: let's bring people like our supporters, like you know what 26 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 3: I mean, because that's a way to actually engage the 27 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 3: community as well. It's like, we have a bunch of supporters, 28 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 3: so let's bring some of our supporters on and people 29 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 3: that we may not have known about. 30 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 4: So it keeps the community alive. That way, you'll always 31 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 4: have people because either people are coming up with ideas 32 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 4: or they're hearing ideas and they're actually saying, listen, next year, 33 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be on your show. And the response is 34 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 4: always the same, I can't wait, Let's do it. Yeah yeah, 35 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 4: so for sure. 36 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 3: So Carl Pierre, he came on an Instagram Live about 37 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 3: a month ago, maybe a month and a half ago, 38 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 3: and when he came on, he was spending a lot 39 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 3: of information about the healthcare industry and a bunch of stuff, 40 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: and everybody that was on the live watching it. 41 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 4: They agreed like you should get at them. 42 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 3: So we set up a time and actually it was 43 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 3: crazy because obviously I was before this whole COVID nineteen outbreak, 44 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 3: so we couldn't do it in person. 45 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 4: We had to reschedule it it. 46 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 3: And now we're setting it up on a zoom, so 47 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna do the introduction. So Carl, he's interesting because 48 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 3: we haven't covered the healthcare industry and it's ironic that 49 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 3: we're covering it now. 50 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 4: It's like perfect time. 51 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 3: But the healthcare industry makes up eighteen percent of the 52 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 3: US GDC. It's a three point six trillion dollar industry, 53 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 3: and it's so vast, like there's so many different fields 54 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 3: within the healthcare industry. 55 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 4: Right so we can only imagine that number is going up. 56 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 3: Of course, So only thing that we hear on the 57 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 3: news right now is healthcare because of obviously what's going 58 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 3: on with COVID nineteen crisis. Yeah, exact epidemic, pandemic, pandemic. 59 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 3: So but Carl's interesting because even before this, he's been 60 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 3: an entrepreneur in the healthcare space. So he has a 61 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 3: home nurse staffing company with over three hundred employees where 62 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 3: they help people like elderly people thinks like long term 63 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 3: care situation where they you know, they desploy nurses to 64 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 3: people's Home. And then he also is called Avalanche Care. 65 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 3: And then he also has a software company that he's 66 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 3: built for medical payroll.

Come on, man, we've been 86 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 4: watching you, all right, So let's let's talk about the backstory. 87 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: So you you know, West Indian descent shout out to 88 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 3: the Haitian massive, So yeah, you know choice you're making. 89 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 3: So you said that your your family, you come from 90 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: a line of healthcare workers, right, which is not which 91 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 3: is not uncommon for Indian furse, doctor, practitioner, things of 92 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 3: that nature. So all right, but you said that you 93 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 3: know your family with healthcare workers and you're you're a 94 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 3: healthcare entrepreneur. So can you talk about that as far 95 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 3: as your backstory into coming into the health field and 96 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 3: what made you transition your family's trajectory from being a 97 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 3: healthcare worker to being a healthcare entrepreneur? 98 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 5: Gotcha? So well, I guess the story starts man. 99 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 6: Mom was in nursing school while she was pregnant with me, right, 100 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 6: so I always saw her work, and she was working 101 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 6: in the hospitals in New York City during the AIDS epidemic, 102 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 6: So it was a constant bit of conversation in the house, 103 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 6: what's going on in healthcare? How to take care of yourself? 104 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 6: What are the trends? And I saw her progress from 105 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 6: being a staff nurse to floor supervisor to an assistant 106 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 6: director of a nursing home. So she was always progressive 107 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 6: in her career, and my father was a respiratory therapist, 108 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 6: still working and he's dealing with a lot with COVID nineteen. Yeah, 109 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 6: and he's a respiratory therapist. So every patient that's coming 110 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 6: in to see him all coming to see him. So 111 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 6: for them, their vision for all their children were was 112 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 6: to work in healthcare and of course be a doctor. 113 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 5: Right. 114 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 6: So one of my brothers is a physician, and yeah, 115 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 6: so essentially the idea was always that we would go 116 00:05:55,080 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 6: the doctor route, right. So I did start thinking of about, 117 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 6: I guess business until I was like about thirteen fourteen 118 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 6: years old, because my mom started a nurse staff infirm. 119 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 6: She was working at a nursing home and they were 120 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 6: using what they call agency nurses, and she was like, well, 121 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 6: why don't I just start when I don't, just start 122 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 6: an agency and get my friends from other hospitals to 123 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 6: work for me and be one of your providers. 124 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 5: And that's where that company started. But my mom has 125 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 5: like zero. 126 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 6: Computer skills, so when it was time to create the documents, 127 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 6: it was me making the documents. 128 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 5: When it was time to create. 129 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 6: Spreadsheets, to do the invoicing, to manage quick books, anything 130 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 6: that was on a computer was me right, because I 131 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 6: was the kind of computer geek of my household. So 132 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 6: it's like, Oh, Carl, I need this, can you know 133 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 6: how to make this it? Could you get get it 134 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 6: out of the computer. So it was always me and 135 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 6: my mom working on that side of the business. So 136 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 6: when I went to college, I ended up expanding the 137 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 6: business into Lowland, and every lesson that I took that 138 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 6: I could kind of like learn from to bring that 139 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 6: knowledge back to the business, I did, and I ended 140 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 6: up studying health technology and management with a concentration in 141 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 6: radiology radiological studies, and that was to become an X 142 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 6: ray tech and a CATSCAN technologist and an MRI technologist. 143 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 6: And I chose that path because I wanted to have 144 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 6: flexibility in when I worked, right, because there's certain positions 145 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 6: in healthcare that are twenty four seven and there's some 146 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 6: of them that are only like nine to five, And 147 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 6: I didn't want to choose a career path within healthcare 148 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 6: that would narrow me down. 149 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 5: To work in nine to five because I knew I needed. 150 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 6: To have the nine to five the business hours free 151 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 6: to expand on my business. So that was kind of 152 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 6: the reason why I chose x ray because it's you know, 153 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 6: their X ray techs are working all shifts, they're doing 154 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 6: catscan at night, or they could flex into MRI. So 155 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 6: I thought that that was going to be the best 156 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 6: fit for me. And plus I knew that I would 157 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 6: have work as well. And I never you know, and 158 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 6: this is a message anybody who's thinking about going the entrepreneuribile. 159 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 5: I never like to not have a guaranteed income from somewhere. 160 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 6: And I felt like, I'm if I can work nights 161 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 6: and I could work weekends and use all of my 162 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 6: free time during the day to focus in the business, 163 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 6: then I'm going to do that. But I'm never going 164 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 6: to sacrifice the potential to earn. And that's one of 165 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 6: the things that is pretty special about about healthcare is 166 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 6: because you know, a nurse could work, you know, three 167 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 6: three days a week, three thirteen hour shifts or three 168 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 6: twelve hour shifts, be full time, and then have four 169 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 6: days a week, you know, on a nurse's sally at 170 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 6: that four days a week to focus on whatever else. 171 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,599 Speaker 4: It is that it's like a firefighter. It's like a firefighter. 172 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 3: Like a lot of firefighters, they work like two twenty 173 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 3: four hour shifts and then they got the rest of 174 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 3: the week where they can do, you know, a variety 175 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 3: whatever else they want to do in life. So it's 176 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 3: like you can be a real estate entrepreneur, you can 177 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: work another job if you want. 178 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 7: It's like, you know, it's it's pretty flexible out So let. 179 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 4: Me ask you this. 180 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 3: As far as the healthcare industry is something that pretty 181 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: much is recession proof, there's a shortage just like the 182 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: only especially nurses, there's the only professional I think that 183 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 3: is extremely on demand right now where everybody else is 184 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 3: firing people and it's like they can't find enough nurses, 185 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 3: especially where we're at in New York. So as far 186 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: as that is concerned, right for an entrepreneur, because we 187 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 3: don't get in the business model of it, how did 188 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 3: you like, what was the steps for you to start 189 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 3: your Your home is it? I don't have a misquote. 190 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: It's a home nursing service home long term nursing service. 191 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 4: Care agency, homecare. 192 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 6: Agency, care service agency. And in New York they call 193 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 6: them lixas and jos. It's two types actually, But it 194 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 6: started first as a staffing firm, which is very simple 195 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 6: to start a staffing firm. 196 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 5: Just need to incorporate yourself. You need to have a contract. 197 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 6: That's is that you're going to be providing, you know, 198 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 6: contracted services, a rate sheet that says how much you're charging, 199 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 6: and you're in business literally for less. 200 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 5: Than a thousand dollars. 201 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 6: You could start out a nursing agency, right because and 202 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 6: it's it's actually mislabeled as a nursing agency because you're 203 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 6: not taking a percentage of the wages of that employee. 204 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 6: So like in New York City, we could get a 205 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 6: license to be an agency through consumer Affairs, so and. 206 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 5: That's a very easy process. 207 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 6: But that's because you're charging a fee to the person 208 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 6: that you that you're getting the job for. 209 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 5: Right. 210 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 6: A staffing firm is different because those people work for 211 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 6: your company and you're assigning them to work in a hospital, 212 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 6: in a nursing home or something like that, and you're 213 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 6: charging the hospital of fee, taking your. 214 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 5: Cut, and then paying your employee. 215 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 6: So it's not by definition an agency, but they just 216 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 6: refer to them as agency nurses. 217 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 4: That's what technology is. Where did the idea for the 218 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 4: staffing agency come? Right, So you're doing X rays? You 219 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 4: deviated from the plan of being a doctor. Was it 220 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 4: from the influx of people coming into the hospital and 221 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 4: seeing that there was a shortage. Where did the influence 222 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 4: come from. 223 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 5: Well, the influence came from my mom. 224 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 6: She just saw an opportunity for a money grab and 225 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 6: she was like, well, if I know several nurses myself 226 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 6: and I'm a nurse, so if I could start this, 227 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 6: then I could just pull my friends together and we 228 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 6: could provide services to these you know, understaffed hospitals and 229 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 6: nursing homes. 230 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 5: So that's where the idea came from. I got to 231 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 5: give her that. 232 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 6: But being exposed to that at fourteen years old made 233 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 6: and seeing what the numbers were made it like, okay, 234 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 6: this is a no brainer for me to kind of 235 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 6: expand on that. But while we were in the staff 236 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 6: in firm business, she also was like, well, since we're 237 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 6: doing well here, there's another side to this business, which 238 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 6: is home healthcare. 239 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 5: And I see those companies and she worked. 240 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 6: She would work, and that's my mom is I guess 241 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 6: pretty genius. Would have work for them to kind of 242 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 6: learn how they maneuver and get exposed to like where 243 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 6: they get their contracts from, how what's the money flown. 244 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 6: And then she was like, all right, let's look into 245 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 6: getting a license. So while we were in high school. 246 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 5: We were working with a license. 247 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 6: A license didn't hit until two thousand and one. But 248 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 6: the staffing firm business was going well. I had expanded 249 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 6: to Long Island. We didn't do anything with the nursing agency, 250 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 6: I mean with the home healthcare agency. 251 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 5: It was just sitting there dormant. But something cool happened, 252 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 5: which is New. 253 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 6: York State stopped issuing the licenses, right, they capped out 254 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 6: the licenses. So we saw a getting phone calls to 255 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 6: buy a license, and the phone call first it was 256 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 6: fifty thousand dollars. That it was one hundred thousand dollars, 257 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 6: then it was two hundred and fifty thousand, there was 258 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 6: four hundred thousand, and. 259 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 5: We thought about selling it just to fuel the staffing firm. 260 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 6: But it was like, wait, if we're getting offered four 261 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 6: hundred k for this license to operate, there's money here, right, 262 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 6: And that's when we pivoted into home healthcare. 263 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 4: So what was what was the reason that New York 264 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 4: State decided to stop issuing the license? 265 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 6: Oh, the same reason why they're trying to scale back 266 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 6: the agencies now. It's just too much oversight, right, So 267 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 6: there's more than two thousand agencies in New York, right, 268 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 6: every three years we get surveyed by the state and 269 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 6: they have to send three nurses to your agency to 270 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 6: review your medical records. 271 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 5: So to do that to two thousand agencies, you need 272 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 5: a lot of personnel. 273 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 6: So it gets out of control every now and then 274 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 6: where it's just too many people to monitor. So they're 275 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 6: actually trying to force a consolidation within the industry, shrinking 276 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 6: the number of licenses that are out there so it's 277 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 6: easier for them to maintain oversight. 278 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 3: So all right, so in a sense you have the 279 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: company where it's like a middleman. In a sense, staffing 280 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 3: is actually really big. We haven't even to talk about 281 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 3: staffing on this podcast before. But so you recruit, you 282 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 3: recruit people for jobs pretty much, and staffing you could 283 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 3: do any you could do staffing in any type of it, staffing, 284 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 3: NA staff and stuff like that. And then you you 285 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 3: charge the high hospital and they pay you and then 286 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: you paid a difference. How lucrative can that? 287 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 5: Like? 288 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 4: Is there what's the profit margins on those? 289 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 5: So it could be. 290 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 6: As much as fifty percent because it depends on what 291 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 6: the hospital is willing to pay. In home care, the 292 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 6: profit margins about eleven to thirteen percent because it's getting 293 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 6: Medicaid dollars and the margins are small there, just like 294 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 6: the margin for a hospital is only eight percent, right, 295 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 6: hospitals are a functioning on eight percent margin. But with 296 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 6: staffing itself, it can be as high as fifty because 297 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 6: it's it's how desperate are they for staff and what 298 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 6: are they willing to pay? So usually you're charging like 299 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 6: a thirty percent markup over what you're paying. 300 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 3: Your staff, So fifty percent the best case scenario, if 301 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 3: they give you two hundred, you give the employee one hundred. 302 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 4: And you take and you're taking one hundred. 303 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, clean, clean if if if that's what they negotiated, right, 304 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 8: So with the nursing comp it's usually about thirty percent 305 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 8: over because the hospital and the nursing facility is thinking, 306 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 8: well do we pay our nurses? 307 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 5: What about matching their payroll taxes? Right? 308 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 6: That's another expense their workers comp and their healthcare expenses 309 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 6: plus PTO. So when you're trying to you want to 310 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 6: come in as close to their price or their overtime 311 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 6: price as possible because they're either going to mandate their 312 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 6: staff to work overtime or they're going to use an agency, 313 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 6: and if you come in for like a dollar or 314 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 6: two less than what that figure is, it's now a 315 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 6: saving to that facility and they'll be interesting. So you 316 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 6: can charge like thirty to fifty percent above because if 317 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 6: it's at fifty percent, you know you're hitting the time 318 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 6: and a half member right, and they're still going to 319 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 6: they still may be short, so they still may go 320 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 6: with you even though it's equal to their time in 321 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 6: the half number. And that doesn't include the workers compon 322 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 6: taxes that they're going to have to pay as the employer. 323 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 4: So can we go back to that four hundred thousand 324 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 4: offer for the license? Did you guys decide to sell? 325 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 4: You decide, you know what, we got something great here, 326 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 4: let's hold on to it. 327 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 6: No, we got that's what we decided. We got something 328 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 6: great care that's hold on to it. And at the 329 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 6: same time, I'm the market crashed. So in the staffing business, right, 330 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 6: you have a contract that says, all right, you're gonna 331 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 6: pay me forty five dollars an hour for an LPN nurse, 332 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 6: and I'm going to pay them and we're going to 333 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 6: provide the service. But what ends up happening is that 334 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 6: you have the terms that maybe every thirty days, every sixty, 335 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 6: every ninety, so you're front running the payroll until you 336 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 6: get reimbursed on your invoice. 337 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 5: Right, you're not getting paid weekly from the nursing facility. 338 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 5: They don't pay out weekly. 339 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 6: So right before the market crashed, we were growing pretty 340 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 6: aggressively and we had line of credits to float that money. 341 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 5: So just like what's happening right. 342 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 6: Now in this crash, the banks pulled back on those 343 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 6: line of credits, so we couldn't even provide. 344 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 5: As much service as anyway. 345 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 6: So it's like, well, what are we going to do 346 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 6: because now we can only provide like thirty percent of 347 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 6: our services. And that's why we're even flirting with the 348 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 6: idea of selling, because it's like if we've sold this 349 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 6: for four hundred K, that helps us, you know, have 350 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 6: worked bff for money. But then we thought like, well, 351 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 6: the home healthy, it's get paid less than nurses, So 352 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 6: let's just start spooling up that side of the business, 353 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 6: making you know, smaller spread, but we can grow this 354 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 6: beyond and people are thinking about paying you know, almost 355 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 6: half a million dollars for the license. 356 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 5: There's got to be some money here and that's where 357 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 5: that pivot took us. 358 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 4: Is that true just for New York State? Was that 359 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 4: something that was happening throughout the country where licenses were 360 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 4: being ceased? 361 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, that's that's New York State. 362 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 6: Like right now in Florida where I am and expanding 363 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 6: on my new venture, there isn't a monitory of the licenses. 364 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 5: I'm applying for a license right now. Some states, I 365 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 5: think Michigan doesn't even have a license to operate. 366 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 6: You could just start a home care agency without any oversight, 367 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 6: which is kind of nuts to me because New York 368 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 6: is heavily regulated. California, of course heavily regulated. So you know, 369 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 6: short answer is that it depends on your state. 370 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I was actually so a friend mine in Ohio. 371 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 3: He has a health clinic and he was kind of 372 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 3: explaining it to me, and it was it was crazy 373 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 3: because he was saying, like with the healthcare industry, the 374 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 3: common mistake that people make is that they think that 375 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 3: they actually have to be in the field to actually be, 376 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 3: you know, an entrepreneur and like open a type of business. 377 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 3: But you don't have to be a doctor. You don't 378 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 3: have to be a licensed doctor to have these type 379 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 3: of business right, like that you have like you're not 380 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 3: a licensed doctor right now, I'm not a. 381 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 6: Licensed doctor, but in most states you have to have 382 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 6: a licensed person like either a nurse or a physician 383 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 6: on your founding. 384 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 5: Team if you're gonna if you're gonna. 385 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 6: Do a license film caurgency, but as a staffing firm, 386 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 6: you could turn around and start once tomorrow. 387 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 4: So your mom would your mom filled that role, right 388 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 4: she was the nurse. 389 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, she was a nurse. So that's that's how it works. 390 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 6: So you know, if you're thinking about getting into this business, 391 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 6: like I get increased all the time on my channel 392 00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 6: where it's like how do I start? 393 00:18:58,840 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 5: How do I start? 394 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 6: So I started showing them step by step this is 395 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 6: how you do it. So step one, if you're going 396 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 6: to go and become a home care agency, you've got 397 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 6: to just research your Department of Health website and find 398 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 6: out are the issuing licenses, what is the application process, 399 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 6: and what are the rules and regulations? Right because those 400 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 6: regulations are going to dictate what your policies are and 401 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,719 Speaker 6: how your policies need to be drafted, and you're going 402 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 6: to need to develop your policies when you're applying. 403 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 5: It's actually pretty a pretty. 404 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 6: Grueling process because you're doing like man like four hundred 405 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 6: pages of policies, your forms that you're going to be 406 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 6: using to do your assessments. It's pretty intense. But you 407 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 6: could also hire a consultant to help you with that. 408 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 6: Like right now in Florida, since I'm in a much 409 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 6: better financial position than when we started the whole agency before, 410 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 6: I'm just paying a consultant to handle the entire application 411 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 6: process and working on building my team while while. 412 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 5: They're doing that piece, rather than physically typing. 413 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 6: But from the staffing firm perspective, you just need a 414 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 6: You can get like a boiler plate generic staffing firm contract. 415 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 6: Pull that up on Google, determine what area you're going 416 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 6: to focus on, if it's going to be healthcare or nursing, 417 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 6: and then disciples your rates are going to be. Make 418 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 6: sure you're cushioning in at least thirty percent spread because 419 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 6: your payroll taxes are going to cost you close to 420 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,479 Speaker 6: like ten percent, and then your worker's comp is going 421 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 6: to be around six to seven percent, so then you're 422 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 6: only going to be left of like twenty so at 423 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 6: least charge your thirty percent markup if you're going to 424 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 6: do that. But the process, you know, once you get licensed, 425 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 6: is all about what relationships you build and executing on 426 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,239 Speaker 6: your marketing strategy so that you're finding those patients. But 427 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 6: on the staffing firm side, the process is call the 428 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 6: nursing home, call the hospital, speak with either the administrator 429 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 6: or the director of nursing and say, I am a 430 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 6: staffing firm. 431 00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 5: I'm looking to bride services. Do you need coverage? Best time? Summertime? Why? 432 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 6: Because people are going on vacation, They're going to be short, right, 433 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 6: so that's when people are going to be desperate. They'll say, hey, 434 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 6: you know what, sure, you know, send us over your 435 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 6: send us over the contract. 436 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 5: We'll have a review. 437 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 6: The first contract that I got when I expanded in 438 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 6: Long Island took me about maybe two weeks of phone calls. 439 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 6: I just literally downloaded National County Nursing Homes and I 440 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 6: just picked up the phone. 441 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 7: Cold call, cold calling, cold calling. 442 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 4: You created the contrast yourself, or you sat down with 443 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 4: a lawyer. How did that process work? 444 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 5: Oh? 445 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 6: She took my mom took a copy of the contract 446 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 6: that her nursing home is using, and I just retyped it. 447 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 4: The mom's a hustler, shout out the mom. 448 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 5: Yeah she's she's she's got hustle to her. She definitely does. 449 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 3: All right, Well, in the next segment, we want to 450 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 3: talk more about the business and also about the acquisition 451 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 3: that you guys. I know you were saying off camera 452 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 3: that somebody had offered you some money and you looked 453 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 3: at that then, because we'd like to talk about stories 454 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 3: like that on EYOL, because these are things that the 455 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 3: general public does not know and isn't privy to. So yeah, 456 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 3: we're gonna talk some more in depth about the healthcare 457 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 3: fail in the next segment. All right, So in this 458 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 3: in this segment, we're gonna we're gonna talk some more 459 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 3: about some actionable items. This is what everybody loves EYO for. 460 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 3: So you have two different businesses with the staffing firm 461 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 3: and the nursing But first I want to talk about 462 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 3: staffing so for people, because you said that's that's probably 463 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 3: like the more practical thing that really anybody can can 464 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 3: do as a staffing firm. And like I said, staffing 465 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 3: firms are big on a variety of different levels, not 466 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 3: just the medical all over. Staffing firms extremely big and 467 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 3: pretty much is just bridging a gap where somebody needs 468 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 3: work and their employees that are skilled to work but 469 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 3: they don't. They got to come together. So the staffings 470 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 3: firm's job is to find the qualified employees and match 471 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 3: them with good employers. So what are some steps if 472 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 3: somebody wants to start their own staffing firm? 473 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 6: So I want to try to break it down as 474 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 6: simple as possible. If you're going to be starting a 475 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,479 Speaker 6: staff infirm, the first thing that you're going to need 476 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 6: to do is get your hands on just a basic 477 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 6: staffing contract. Okay, get a contract, review that contract, and 478 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 6: part of that contract is going to have a fee schedule, right, 479 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 6: This is what you're charging for the positions. Right, So 480 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 6: if you're starting with nursing, start with a fee schedule 481 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 6: for urns, a fee schedule for LPNs. 482 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 5: Which are licensed practical nurses, and. 483 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 6: Then for nurse aids, because that those are the most 484 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 6: utilized workers in a nursing home or in a hospital. 485 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 5: Right. 486 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 6: So that's that's one thing that you want to have. 487 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 6: But you're going to do your market research next to 488 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 6: know what is a nurse commanding as far as salary? 489 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 6: What is an LPN commanding as far as salary and 490 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 6: the nurse aid, right, so that you know what you're. 491 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 4: Supposed to be paying out specific to each state that 492 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 4: you're in, specific to specific to the state that you're in. 493 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 5: Specific to your region, even in New York region.

How many people are you putting on 546 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 4: the team to start? We're doing like two or three 547 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 4: including yourself. So you got a four person team. 548 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 5: And if you're starting a staffing. 549 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 4: Firm, yeah, I would at least. 550 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 6: Three in each position that you're that you're marketing, so 551 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 6: at least you have, you know, some depth to your 552 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 6: to your staff. 553 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 4: All right, So we had r N, LPN and then healthcare, 554 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 4: so that would be nine people. Yeah, gotcha. 555 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 3: So how do how do you Because like there's a 556 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 3: shortage of nurses right now in New York and there's 557 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 3: like they're like begging nurses to come from all over 558 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 3: the country. Right, So this is like a perfect if 559 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 3: somebody had a staffing agency for nurses right now, it'd 560 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 3: be perfect, But like how. 561 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 7: Do you find the candidates? Like I'm sure the tract. 562 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 6: Out Okay, So you got to just public. You're going 563 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 6: to post on whatever you can, indeed LinkedIn Facebook jobs 564 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,719 Speaker 6: wherever the threads list, just post that you're hiring. And 565 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,959 Speaker 6: the thing is, people are nurses. I know. 566 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 5: Most nurses I know are working two jobs. 567 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 6: Right. They're usually the top earner in their household, especially 568 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:19,919 Speaker 6: in our community. 569 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 5: They're working two jobs, sometimes three jobs. 570 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 6: So they're always looking for jobs, right, because one that 571 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 6: their jobs exist and they're always looking. But if you 572 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 6: dangle a carrot, like higher rates than what they're normally 573 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 6: getting paid, then that also attracts them. So let's just 574 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 6: say the averages thirty but you're paying thirty three. Then 575 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 6: nurses who are working for some other agency or they'll 576 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 6: give up their part time job and work with you 577 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 6: for a little more money. So you make it a 578 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 6: smaller spread, but you're attracting the talent that way. 579 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 4: What is what makes a candidate qualify? What are the 580 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 4: things they need? I'm assuming experience or maybe not in 581 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 4: this type of crisis. 582 00:27:58,320 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, sometimes not even experience. 583 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 6: License they need to have most most people in healthcare 584 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 6: need to be licensed, right, so our into license. LPNs 585 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 6: are licensed, nurse aids have a certificate home health aids 586 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 6: have a certificate, so they obviously need to be meet 587 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 6: whatever the guidelines are for the state. 588 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 5: They also need to. 589 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 6: Have an up to date physical which shows that they're 590 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 6: immune to beesels, bumps, rubella, rubiola, checking poks for oursella, 591 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 6: that they also are TV negative so they can't have 592 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 6: active tuberculosis, and that they're what's called, you know, safe 593 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 6: and fit to work okay, So that physical needs it's 594 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 6: done annually. All healthcare workers working in direct contact with 595 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 6: patients have to have an annual physical, so they physical 596 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 6: needs to. 597 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 5: Be on to date. But every nurse and everybody in 598 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 5: the field knows that. 599 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 6: So either they're getting the physical is done as the 600 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 6: job and they could get their physicals from their job, 601 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 6: or they just get their physical from their doctor. 602 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 5: But once they have that, they. 603 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 6: Have the application, they filled out their W two forms 604 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 6: or the ten ninety nine informs if they're or W 605 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 6: nine's if they're going to be ten ninety nine, and 606 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 6: they have their medical clearance and you have a copy 607 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 6: of their license, that's what you would consider a profile 608 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 6: for that for that nurse. Of course, their resume helps, 609 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 6: but most of the time they're not even asking for 610 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 6: the resumes. 611 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 5: Because they're so behind. 612 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 6: It's just like, does this person have at least one 613 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 6: year's experience typically is what they're looking. 614 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 5: For, so you would also look for that. 615 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 6: But sometimes you might have a new nurse who has 616 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 6: maybe eight years experience as a nurse aid that understands 617 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 6: how things move in a nursing facility that they'll be 618 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 6: willing to take as well. Sometimes they orient them at 619 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 6: the facility and really it's really a case by case, 620 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 6: but at minimum physical licensing certificate and identification and you 621 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 6: know eligibility. 622 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 4: Work in the United States, are there terms after you 623 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 4: find a candidate that they have to stay with the 624 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 4: company for six to twelve months or does that exist 625 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 4: in this in the staffing agency? 626 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 5: It can if you if. 627 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 6: You have that agreement with the worker, and usually within 628 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 6: the contract you have like a provision that they can 629 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 6: hire that person after one year if they pay you 630 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 6: x percentage of that person's salary. 631 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 5: If not, they can't hire that person. 632 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 6: So it's also a way for them to kind of 633 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 6: vent and recruit talent to a certain extent. 634 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, so that in that sense, right, Let's say that 635 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 4: they made one hundred thousand, if they want to hire 636 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 4: them after the year, you take a percentage of that, 637 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 4: so you like, maybe I'll get five percent fifteen, So 638 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 4: that's fifteen fifteen thousand if we make it one hundred yep, okay, gotcha? Okay, 639 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 4: So the staffing how lucrative is staffing? 640 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 5: Okay? 641 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 6: So before we pivoted to home care, we're doing about 642 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 6: a million a year in revenue, and like the net 643 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 6: margin is about twenty percent, so you're seeing two hundred grandfit, 644 00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 6: so it's enough to earn on it wasn't it wasn't 645 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 6: it what it was for for like how it is. 646 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 5: For home care. 647 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 6: But we never got to the point like as far 648 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 6: as size that we did with the homecare agency. 649 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 3: So pivoting to pivoting towards home care, so home care 650 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 3: is more is way more lucrative in your opinion? 651 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 5: Uh, No, they're there. I think I think they're equally lucrative. 652 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 6: It's just that the the funnel is different and there's 653 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 6: a larger barrier to entry.

Hospitals are 757 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 6: under pressure to discharge patients quickly and make sure those 758 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 6: patients are re admitted. But what happens when somebody has pneumonia, 759 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 6: goes home, doesn't pick up their medication, they don't know 760 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 6: how to take their medication, they're not following a good diet, 761 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 6: they regress, they labs, stand up back in nursing facility. 762 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:07,720 Speaker 6: When that happens, the hospital gets penalized. So our mission 763 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 6: is to streamline that process so that hospitals are discharging 764 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 6: using our software solutions right discharging to home care so 765 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 6: that immediately we're picking up that patient, servicing them, making 766 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 6: sure that someone is there, pick up the medication, take 767 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 6: care of them, making sure they're not falling at home, 768 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 6: making sure they're not regressing so they don't trigger back 769 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 6: into the hospital and trigger that penalty. By doing that, 770 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 6: refunneling ourselves with a lot. 771 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 4: Of new referras, you said the hospital, So solving that 772 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 4: hospital's problem, the hospital gets penalized as like a fee 773 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 4: or a fine that the hospital gets. 774 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, well it's not a fee or fine. 775 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 6: They will subtract up to three percent of their top 776 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 6: line revenue for penalties on the following year. So let's 777 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,399 Speaker 6: just say the hospital is making a hundred million, right, 778 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 6: the hospital margin eight percent, right, so they only make 779 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 6: an eight million dollars profit. 780 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 5: Medicare will penalize them three percent on. 781 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 6: Revenue and reimbursement, right, But their operation costs are still 782 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 6: going to cost them that ninety two million. So from 783 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 6: going from one hundred million to ninety seven and having 784 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 6: an underlying ninety two million dollars you know, cost to 785 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 6: provide services, they're only making five million. That's that's almost 786 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 6: forty percent loss in their bottom line if they get penalized. 787 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 4: How many patients would it would it take for like 788 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 4: a hospital to get penalized for something like that to 789 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 4: kick in. 790 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 6: Actually, it's it's like ratios, and so it depends on 791 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 6: how many bits they have, how many what disease processes, 792 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 6: because they're targeting six disease processes, pneumonia, heart failure, cabbage 793 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 6: which is bypass surgery, complete joint replacement surgeries. So those 794 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,919 Speaker 6: are the ones that are like the high risk because 795 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 6: they're expensive to take care of, and it's you know 796 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 6: you the mentality of the government is we're paying you. 797 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 5: To fix them, fix them, you. 798 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 6: Know what I'm saying, like, fix them, make sure that 799 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 6: they're healthy. But at the same time, we're only paying 800 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 6: you for four days for this hospital state because that's 801 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 6: the national average. So what is the hospital doing They 802 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 6: need to get them out or is they losing body 803 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 6: and they need to ensure that they don't come back. 804 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 5: So our company is. 805 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 6: Focusing on that transitional care and converting into long. 806 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 4: Term care for Yeah, you're helping making sure that they 807 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 4: don't come back. 808 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 5: We help them to make sure they don't come back 809 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 5: and saving their revenue. 810 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 4: Gotcha? 811 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 3: And so what's the business modecle?

Always That's always been the case, right. I 870 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 6: always wanted to push the business further. And what I 871 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 6: realized is that they were going into business for the 872 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 6: freedom that you know, owning your own business allows, right, you. 873 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 5: Could take vacation when you want, do what you want. 874 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,879 Speaker 6: And they were comfortable with what we're making there, right, 875 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 6: So they weren't looking to push They do want growth, 876 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 6: they do want to make more money, but they're not 877 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 6: willing to adjust their habits and mindset to. 878 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 5: Run multiple locations to expand into different states. They're not 879 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 5: They're not there. 880 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:36,879 Speaker 6: So the first thing that I'm doing with aid Book 881 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 6: is assembling a team that has industry knowledge and working 882 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 6: in public companies and highlight. 883 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:50,320 Speaker 4: I know where I'm at. 884 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 5: Gotcha, Sorry about that, man. 885 00:43:56,080 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 6: So what I'm doing at aid Book is folks on 886 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 6: talent that has worked in publicly traded companies and just 887 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 6: building our infrastructure with that mindset. So not only are 888 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:10,800 Speaker 6: we going to be used in technology as and solving 889 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 6: that problem for the hospital to be a driver of 890 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 6: growth in our business, but we will entertain you know, 891 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 6: acquisitions as well, because as we get close. 892 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 5: It makes more sense to so let me let me 893 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 5: put it this way. 894 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 6: I believe that our software and aligning ourselves with the 895 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 6: hospitals will allow us to grow by you know. 896 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 5: One hundred patients per month. Right. 897 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 6: If I'm growing by by one hundred patients per month 898 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 6: in one city, then I need to set up in 899 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 6: another city and grow an agency by one hundred patients 900 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,840 Speaker 6: a month by employing the same software, the same marketing 901 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 6: team to do that. 902 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:45,919 Speaker 5: Right. 903 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 6: So, if I'm going into a new state, rather than 904 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 6: go through this lengthy you know, licensing process, which for 905 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 6: Florida is going to take me four months to have 906 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:58,760 Speaker 6: the license and then another six. 907 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 5: Months to get Medicare approval, what I could do when 908 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 5: I'm going. 909 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 6: Into a new state and better capitalized I could just 910 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 6: start buying smaller mid sized companies at five times earnings 911 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,280 Speaker 6: and just point our marketing engine to them and scale 912 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:17,239 Speaker 6: them up to two thousand, three thousand patients per per 913 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 6: an agency, per state. 914 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 5: Once I get to like twelve fifteen. 915 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 6: Thousand lives in the management, I have something that I 916 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 6: can take to the public market, or once again step 917 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 6: to a larger, you know, conglomerate and say, look, we're 918 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 6: growing at one thousand patients per month. We don't see 919 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 6: an end in our funnel. You're growing by acquiring companies 920 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 6: right at five times earnings. If you just buy our 921 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 6: system that's already functional and fully aligned with the hospitals, 922 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:55,919 Speaker 6: then you're going to grow at this rate in perpetuity, right, 923 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 6: So why wouldn't you want to buy this? But at 924 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 6: the same time, I'll still be on the track to 925 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 6: take the company public. So for me, the most important 926 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:08,959 Speaker 6: thing is an initial team that has that experience. So 927 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 6: I've already poached some talent from TopWare, and now I 928 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:17,920 Speaker 6: poached one person from from Emory the hospital system in Atlanta, 929 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 6: And these are people who are interested in being involved 930 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 6: in a startup with this With this trajectory in mind, 931 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 6: that within five to seven years, we're going to exit 932 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 6: and we're going to exit big, and we need to 933 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:35,759 Speaker 6: function this way and just replicating systems with that that you. 934 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 5: Would come to find in a public trading company. 935 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 6: So you'll see that most publicly traded companies are you know, 936 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 6: will have one of the major accounting firms doing their 937 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 6: accounting or at least doing their audits, like PwC for instance. 938 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 6: So from from day one, our accounting structure has to 939 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 6: be on point right because that happens if you if 940 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 6: you notice, like when you're looking at like startups that 941 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 6: are trying to go public, they some of them get 942 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 6: jammed up because. 943 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 5: Of accounting, you know issues. 944 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 6: Is because they didn't have their structure right and now 945 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 6: they got to get they got to spend two or 946 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 6: three years getting their financial straight to then take the 947 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,760 Speaker 6: company public. So by building from from the very beginning 948 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 6: with the mindset of this is this is how accounting. 949 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 5: Is done in publicly traded companies. 950 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 6: This is how much money is allocated to marketing spend 951 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 6: versus revenue. Having all those details and people who are 952 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 6: familiar with those details being on your team from the 953 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 6: beginning is what you need. And also you're going to 954 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 6: need money to support that. A lot of one of 955 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 6: the mistakes that we make, as you know, as a 956 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 6: community is we'll start our business with too little money 957 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:44,640 Speaker 6: with our friends, with our family, and they're not skilled 958 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 6: to take it to a certain point, and then we 959 00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 6: don't even have the discussion of what is the vision. 960 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 5: For the company? 961 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 6: Where are we trying to go, what are we trying 962 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,359 Speaker 6: to do, how are we trying to get there? Are 963 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 6: our visions aligned? Are values aligned? And those things you 964 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:01,760 Speaker 6: need to set, you need to set them from the beginning. 965 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 6: If you don't, you're gonna be building a company on 966 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 6: a shaky foundation. 967 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 5: So you're gonna build a. 968 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 6: Company that you know at a certain point it can't 969 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 6: grow anymore because your foundation isn't set. 970 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's big. Obviously, I've heard of assets under management. 971 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 3: I never heard of lives under management before, but makes 972 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:22,880 Speaker 3: sense if you're in the medical field. 973 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 7: So yeah, I mean that. 974 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,840 Speaker 3: Like you said, I mean you just outlined your vision, 975 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 3: and I think that that's important for entrepreneurs, whether it's big, small, 976 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 3: middle whatever. You have to have a vision. And it's 977 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:36,400 Speaker 3: like you already kind of have an idea in your mind. 978 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 3: Nothing ever goes according to plan, but at least you 979 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,839 Speaker 3: have a roadmap of where you want your company to go. 980 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 3: And that's more than half the battle right there. I 981 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 3: think a lot of entrepreneurs are just winging it, winking 982 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 3: up and just trying to figure it out day to day, 983 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 3: like they're literally living day to day, and times like 984 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 3: this it just really exposes that. And now you're in 985 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:59,439 Speaker 3: a financial crisis because you never really had a business plan. 986 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 3: You just had you know, figure it out mentality as 987 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 3: you go, and that can only take you so far. 988 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 5: Correct, It's it's a and the thing. 989 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 6: I'm lucky, really, I'm lucky, like just like like like 990 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 6: like the VC dude that was just from Black Star, Yeah, 991 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 6: kwami he When I was watching that, I was like, 992 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 6: this is like my story, right because his father's a physician, 993 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 6: he's helping out at the office, he's learning and he's 994 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 6: watching and like having that that information coming into your 995 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 6: mind from that young you start to just like you say, 996 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 6: I think you say something. If you start looking at 997 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 6: a yellow car, you start to notice more yellow cars. 998 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 5: Right, So if I am ready I'm looking. 999 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 6: At okay, my mom's staffing business, and I'm now I'm 1000 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:47,520 Speaker 6: in the staffing business myself. 1001 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,360 Speaker 5: You start and I'm working in hospital. 1002 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 6: Still you start having your eyes open to where's the 1003 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,399 Speaker 6: money moving, how's it moving? So certain things that will 1004 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,440 Speaker 6: go over your head don't go over your head anymore. 1005 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,839 Speaker 5: Certain keywords immediately R So it's it's the same thing. 1006 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 6: But what I see with a lot of people is 1007 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,280 Speaker 6: that they either they don't have much, you know, entrepreneurial experience, 1008 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 6: they get it later in life and they start. 1009 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 5: Just winging it. 1010 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 6: The best thing that you could do is, you know, 1011 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:19,840 Speaker 6: hit what one do like a business a business template 1012 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,760 Speaker 6: or a business model. It just look this Google business 1013 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:27,640 Speaker 6: model and YouTube a business model video. It walks you 1014 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,839 Speaker 6: through how you should be thinking about your business. The 1015 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,280 Speaker 6: very first thing is what is your value proposition? 1016 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 5: What do you often? 1017 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:37,840 Speaker 6: What problem are you fixing or what need are you addressing? 1018 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 6: What is what is that in your company? Right so 1019 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:46,360 Speaker 6: at eight book, what is our value proposition? We're dealing 1020 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:51,400 Speaker 6: with this problem that hospitals have of patients being readmitted, 1021 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 6: and that's the problem that we're trying to solve, and 1022 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,799 Speaker 6: we're going to monetize that by solving that problem and 1023 00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 6: by being the service provider. 1024 00:50:58,040 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 5: To those patients. 1025 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,479 Speaker 4: Many how many the states are you operating in right now, 1026 00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:02,399 Speaker 4: right now? 1027 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,839 Speaker 5: Well, New York and then with eight book, it's going 1028 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 5: to be. 1029 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 4: Florida, Florida. And when I'm thinking Florida, and I'm thinking, 1030 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:11,280 Speaker 4: like when you said you want to grow your clients 1031 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 4: by one hundred per or thousand per year, you're in 1032 00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 4: a state with the largest population, well the oldest population 1033 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,280 Speaker 4: in the country. Was that done intentionally? 1034 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 6: Actually not really, because Florida, like in New York, we're 1035 00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 6: dealing mostly with Medicaid, managed law, term care right as 1036 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 6: the payer. Florida has a cap on how many waivers 1037 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 6: they put out. 1038 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,760 Speaker 5: Right, it's a red state mostly, so. 1039 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 6: They put out you know, they do less spending, so 1040 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 6: a lot of the people here are self paid. But 1041 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 6: I liked Florida because, you know, I'm going to be 1042 00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 6: living part time in Colombia. 1043 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:55,319 Speaker 5: So it's a good midpoint between Columbia and New York. So, 1044 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 5: and it has the international airports, the weather it's good, 1045 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 5: So that's why I chose. I chose Florida. 1046 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 6: But I'm going to be expanding into every state that 1047 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:07,879 Speaker 6: has you know, a thriving home care community, like home 1048 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 6: care infrastructure. So Florida North Carolina, Texas, Atlanta, or Georgia, Pennsylvania, California. 1049 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 6: So those are states that I would be willing to 1050 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 6: enter because I know that the home care infrastructure is good. 1051 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 3: There you have it, ladies and gentlemen. So on the 1052 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,160 Speaker 3: last segment, we're going to talk about your software system. 1053 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 3: That's actually something you're a lot going on. We go 1054 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 3: time on time the software system, and then we're going 1055 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 3: to bring home with everything yet you got going on now, 1056 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 3: So yeah, so we're going to talk about your software system. 1057 00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 3: But before, one quick question about your company. So how 1058 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:46,759 Speaker 3: do you raise money? Because I am you know, it's 1059 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:50,399 Speaker 3: probably a lot as far as the expenses to run 1060 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:52,840 Speaker 3: these type of organizations. You say, you even have to 1061 00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:54,759 Speaker 3: pay upfront then you get reimbursed on the back end. 1062 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,759 Speaker 3: So finance finances is always the biggest hurdle for any 1063 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:02,760 Speaker 3: business for the most part. So how do you raise money? 1064 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 3: How do you have money coming in on a consistent 1065 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 3: basis to float your operations? 1066 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:09,799 Speaker 5: Okay, so in. 1067 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 6: Looking at the staff and business that started with five 1068 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 6: thousand dollars five K and obviously that's undercapitalized. 1069 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,839 Speaker 5: Right, that's what ended up happening. Is that all right? 1070 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:27,839 Speaker 6: We're limited to how much services we can provide. Some 1071 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,440 Speaker 6: people waiting a month to get paid because we were 1072 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:35,719 Speaker 6: getting paid on a monthly basis. So first was like 1073 00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:37,560 Speaker 6: the most traditional people, You go to a bank, you 1074 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:40,440 Speaker 6: apply for a line of credit, right, but that's only 1075 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 6: going to be if you have business history, right, and 1076 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,760 Speaker 6: then they feel that you're credit worthy. But with time, 1077 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 6: those lines of credit, it was tapping. For one case, 1078 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 6: it was tapping friends and family. And that's usually where 1079 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:57,280 Speaker 6: most people start with either basic credit cards or getting 1080 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,359 Speaker 6: money from the bank, right, But they're not let much 1081 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 6: and it's not enough to really turbo charge your company. 1082 00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 6: It wasn't until I was trading stocks and building, you know, 1083 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 6: a tech company that I started to understand that starting 1084 00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,399 Speaker 6: with friends and family money is pools fight. 1085 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:17,880 Speaker 5: It's you know, it could get you started. 1086 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,399 Speaker 6: Starting with little credit cards and bank money is enough 1087 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,239 Speaker 6: to get you started. But if you're really gonna try 1088 00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 6: to expand your business, you're going to have to raise 1089 00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 6: money from from institutional investors, right from VC firms, from 1090 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 6: angel investors. And their entire business model is to identify 1091 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:43,439 Speaker 6: solid companies, pump money in with the intention solely. 1092 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:44,160 Speaker 5: To scale them. Right. 1093 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:49,239 Speaker 6: That's a little different than starting from scratch, right, because 1094 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 6: it's sometimes all right, so. 1095 00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 5: In the world, in the in the startup world. 1096 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:56,280 Speaker 6: Right, and it's not just tech startups because any obviously 1097 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 6: any industry could be a startup. 1098 00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:57,879 Speaker 5: But in the. 1099 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:04,160 Speaker 6: Startup world, you your first objective is to develop an MVP, right, 1100 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:08,239 Speaker 6: your minimally viable product, and that's the. 1101 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 5: First thing that you need to finance. 1102 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:12,879 Speaker 6: Right. Prove that you have a product or service that 1103 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:14,480 Speaker 6: the market is in demand for. 1104 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 5: Prove that you can monetize it. That's the first thing 1105 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 5: that you should raise money for. 1106 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:19,680 Speaker 6: And if you're going to do it with your credit 1107 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:22,399 Speaker 6: cards and with friends and family money, that's the time 1108 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 6: because you don't necessarily have to go out there and 1109 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:27,640 Speaker 6: form a business. You just have to prove that you 1110 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,800 Speaker 6: have a product or service that people. 1111 00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:30,400 Speaker 5: Are willing to pay for. 1112 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 6: Once you can prove that with this product or service, 1113 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 6: it costs, you know, ten thousand dollars a month to operate, 1114 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:43,840 Speaker 6: but it generates fifty thousand dollars of money like annual profits. 1115 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,000 Speaker 6: Once you can prove that relationship that money in. Doing 1116 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 6: this thing produces money out at a multiple larger than 1117 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 6: money in. 1118 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:54,920 Speaker 5: You can take that. 1119 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 6: Little company to market and start raising money from angel 1120 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:02,479 Speaker 6: and vests and venture capitalist and then. 1121 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 5: There's gonna be different. 1122 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,640 Speaker 6: There's gonna be different levels of them, right, there's gonna 1123 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 6: be there's gonna be like Brooklyn what is it, Brooklyn 1124 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 6: Bread Ventures, Right, Charlie Charlie o'donnald is the guy who 1125 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:15,920 Speaker 6: hits that fund. He likes to deal with companies that 1126 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 6: are at that seed level, that first investment usually five 1127 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 6: hundred thousand million in capital. 1128 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 5: Then there's like the. 1129 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 6: Series A, Series B and so on and some So 1130 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,879 Speaker 6: there's some VC firms that only get in at that 1131 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 6: pre like like two hundred million dollar minimum. Like we 1132 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 6: don't look at any company that doesn't require two hundred 1133 00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,680 Speaker 6: million dollars or more. Right, So it's all about what 1134 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,080 Speaker 6: we're trying to go. But the first, the first that 1135 00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 6: seed funding of that that anywhere from half a million 1136 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 6: dollars to like one to one point five.

Sure? 1183 00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 6: So a long time ITS was born out of me 1184 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 6: doing my fashion tech company. Right, my ex wife was 1185 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 6: interested in fashion. She had this idea and I was like, 1186 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 6: you know what, let's do it. So I found some 1187 00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 6: web developers in India started building that fashion tech, built 1188 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:18,480 Speaker 6: a fashion application. And I'm going around now as this 1189 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 6: is a break from healthcare, because I got kind of 1190 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 6: tired of it's been my whole life. So I'm going 1191 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:28,360 Speaker 6: around function as the CEO of this tech fashion tech startup. 1192 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 6: And I went to an accelerator, And an accelerator is 1193 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 6: kind of like a VC firm, but they take you 1194 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 6: from concept to the point where you. 1195 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 5: Start to raise your first round. 1196 00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:42,840 Speaker 6: So they forced, they mentor you, they coach you, they 1197 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,720 Speaker 6: give you your initial money, they take like eight percent, right, 1198 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 6: they fund you maybe one hundred thousand, take eight percent 1199 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 6: of the company from jump and then they start telling 1200 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 6: they start modeling you so you can get that initial 1201 00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,840 Speaker 6: traction and then they take you to market the final 1202 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 6: do you graduate from an celebrator on pitch me. So 1203 01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:04,479 Speaker 6: there's tech stars, there's e R which is the one 1204 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 6: that I'm talking about. 1205 01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 5: There's there's a uh this. 1206 01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:10,440 Speaker 6: There's tons of them, right and there some somewhere in 1207 01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 6: New York, A lot of them are in San Francisco. 1208 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:16,120 Speaker 6: So I was starting to go through that circuit, right, 1209 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 6: learning about the start of culture, learning how to raise money. 1210 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 6: So I go to I'm pitching at uh T E 1211 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,640 Speaker 6: R A and the the principle there is his name 1212 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:27,640 Speaker 6: is Mira Mirror. 1213 01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:28,120 Speaker 5: It's like. 1214 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:31,920 Speaker 6: I'm looking at your resume I'm looking at your history 1215 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:35,920 Speaker 6: and you're you're honestly proven as an entrepreneur. What the 1216 01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,320 Speaker 6: hell are you doing in fashion? Why don't you solve 1217 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:42,840 Speaker 6: a problem in healthcare? And that's something I could get 1218 01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:46,520 Speaker 6: behind because that's that tells a better story. I could 1219 01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:48,919 Speaker 6: see that story. I don't see your connection. I don't 1220 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 6: see your understanding the fashion. This is this, this is 1221 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 6: a good idea, but do you have relevant experience in 1222 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:58,480 Speaker 6: that field two to really see it through? 1223 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 5: And he was like, so something in healthcare. So then 1224 01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 5: I'm thinking back to my. 1225 01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 6: Homecare agency and I'm like, you know what's really annoying? 1226 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:10,920 Speaker 6: Time sheets. We're functioning on paper time sheets where the 1227 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 6: home health aid went to the patient's house, worked for 1228 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:15,360 Speaker 6: the week, patient signs off because that's something that the 1229 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 6: state requires. 1230 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,840 Speaker 5: They need proof that the service was provided, notes, that 1231 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 5: sort of thing. 1232 01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 6: So I was like, that timesheet, they have to bring 1233 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 6: it in by the deadline on a certain date so 1234 01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:27,960 Speaker 6: that they g get processed on time for payroll, and 1235 01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:28,720 Speaker 6: if they bring it in. 1236 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 5: Late, they're still upset that they didn't get paid. So 1237 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 5: I was like, this is a nightmare. 1238 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,440 Speaker 6: So it's like, you know what, let me create a 1239 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 6: mobile application that allows my home health aids to capture 1240 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 6: their time sheet on their cell phone, right, and that's where. 1241 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 5: On time was born. 1242 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 6: So all times a home healthcare practice management solution that 1243 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 6: allows you to handle time and attendance, payroll, scheduling, billing. 1244 01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:01,920 Speaker 6: And we're now building the medical records portion, right so 1245 01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:04,440 Speaker 6: that nursing nurses, notes, etetera, because that's still on paper 1246 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:09,120 Speaker 6: our company. And that's a solution that I'm going to 1247 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 6: provide to social built daycare, which is another part of 1248 01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:16,480 Speaker 6: the home care hustle, to home care agencies, and a 1249 01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 6: version that's like industry agnostic as well. Were time and 1250 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,919 Speaker 6: attendance for any mobile worker. So if it's the cable guy, 1251 01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,600 Speaker 6: then he could punch in that I'm at this work site, 1252 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,200 Speaker 6: I got here and get paid that way. 1253 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 5: So that's what on time is. 1254 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:35,400 Speaker 4: Well, how long did it take to build out that platform, Well, 1255 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 4: I've been building that. 1256 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:42,520 Speaker 6: Since I've been building that since twenty fifteen, so the 1257 01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:47,040 Speaker 6: time and attendance, the first iteration of on time probably 1258 01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 6: took about six months. And then that was built on 1259 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:54,920 Speaker 6: a shaky foundation and we figured that out later. Then 1260 01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:58,560 Speaker 6: we rebuilt it. So this is like version two of 1261 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 6: the system. The first version was time and attendance and 1262 01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 6: that's it. Then we built time and Attendance and schedule 1263 01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 6: and then we started. Then we added billing because billing 1264 01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 6: is done, you know, on these forms, it's a very 1265 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:16,480 Speaker 6: repetitive process. Manually put in the wrong billing code, you 1266 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,560 Speaker 6: get rejected. You you won't know it until thirty days 1267 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 6: from there. So it was like, you know what, this 1268 01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 6: is another problem within the company that we need to 1269 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:25,880 Speaker 6: fix is we need to automate the billing process so 1270 01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:28,840 Speaker 6: that it's accurate and it's end to end. So the 1271 01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:33,120 Speaker 6: home healthy punches in a regislation. In your system, you 1272 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 6: run payroll by just selecting the date range. Payrolls processed 1273 01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 6: and ran, and then you do the same thing you 1274 01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:43,840 Speaker 6: select the date range the insurance company process. Billing is done, 1275 01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:47,600 Speaker 6: so I'm able to function with far less staff, right, 1276 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:49,240 Speaker 6: I got less administrative staff. 1277 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 5: I also outsourced part of my staff to Venezuela and Columbia, 1278 01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:56,320 Speaker 5: so I have some of my support there as well. 1279 01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:59,920 Speaker 5: So you know, and that was made possible by software. 1280 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:01,840 Speaker 5: A simple question. 1281 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 6: You could probably create a software solution in three to 1282 01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,200 Speaker 6: six months and then expand on it. 1283 01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:10,360 Speaker 5: However, you need to. 1284 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:14,240 Speaker 4: I was reading on the platform that there's a GPS component. 1285 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:15,360 Speaker 4: How does that work? 1286 01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 6: Okay, so the patient lives somewhere, right, So the patient 1287 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,760 Speaker 6: gets entered in into the system and they get a 1288 01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 6: GPS point for their home. The aid can only punch 1289 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:32,400 Speaker 6: in when they're within like six meters of that point, 1290 01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 6: so that verifies first of all that they were there. 1291 01:04:36,280 --> 01:04:39,160 Speaker 5: Right. They can't pull the patient's name, they. 1292 01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:41,280 Speaker 6: Can't do anything without being on site. So that's a 1293 01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 6: GPS component. So it's like geo fencing. It's it's by 1294 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:49,240 Speaker 6: using their GPS coordinate. This person is able to take 1295 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:52,120 Speaker 6: an action only when they're at that same point. So 1296 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:54,280 Speaker 6: they just have to turn on their GPS on their phone, 1297 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:57,960 Speaker 6: rent to their location, punch in. It confirms the location, 1298 01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 6: then allows them to mark off what they've done. They 1299 01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,480 Speaker 6: get a pace of bath reminders. You can also tell 1300 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 6: them what they need to do. 1301 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:04,840 Speaker 5: For the day. 1302 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. I would assume that also helps in attendance. Right 1303 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:10,160 Speaker 4: if somebody says that at the location, you can one 1304 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 4: thousand percent prove that they were and how long they were, 1305 01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:15,480 Speaker 4: the duration of time so exactly that that helps out 1306 01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 4: in the billing process too. Nobody's gonna getting overpaid or 1307 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:20,800 Speaker 4: underpaid for what they did correct. 1308 01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 3: And also also the thing I really like about the 1309 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:28,520 Speaker 3: whole story is that it's like you found This is 1310 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 3: a common theme with guests from our podcast, is that 1311 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 3: you found the need in the industry that you was 1312 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:35,520 Speaker 3: already at. And it's like when people say like multiple 1313 01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:37,120 Speaker 3: streams of income, and it's like the same thing with 1314 01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 3: like multiple businesses and different ideas. It's like, you don't 1315 01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:41,560 Speaker 3: have to do something completely different from what you're already doing. 1316 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 7: You're already in the industry. You see a need for it, 1317 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:45,160 Speaker 7: and it's like. 1318 01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 3: Okay, well, why not just create a software that can 1319 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 3: help out. But it's like now you've created not only 1320 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:56,000 Speaker 3: multiple revenue streams, but also you stayed within your pocket, 1321 01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:58,440 Speaker 3: like you're not doing something completely foreign from what you're 1322 01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:01,760 Speaker 3: already doing because you have actually saw it. You're you're 1323 01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 3: in the industry. You see that there's an issue with 1324 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 3: processing payments and all that stuff. So it's like, okay, now, 1325 01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:10,520 Speaker 3: not only will it help the industry and make things 1326 01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:13,800 Speaker 3: more efficient, but it's also another source of revenue as well. 1327 01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:17,360 Speaker 3: And not even on a micro level. Regularly every day 1328 01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:19,280 Speaker 3: people can just you know, think about that it's like, 1329 01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:21,920 Speaker 3: you know, you have a job, and it's like, okay, well, 1330 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:23,800 Speaker 3: how can I if I want to start a business, 1331 01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:26,000 Speaker 3: I don't have to do something completely different from my job. 1332 01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:28,120 Speaker 3: I already know what I'm doing for a living. So 1333 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:30,960 Speaker 3: maybe you know my side hustle is going to be 1334 01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 3: a branch off of my job, like you said, like you, 1335 01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:36,640 Speaker 3: like Troy says all the time. If you're a teacher, 1336 01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 3: you know, why not be why not start a tutoring company? 1337 01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:41,080 Speaker 4: Right? 1338 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 3: Like, you already teach science, so you know that there's 1339 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 3: a problem with kids in STEM and there's not enough 1340 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 3: science teachers and kids don't understand science properly, So why not, 1341 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:53,920 Speaker 3: you know, have a tutoring program. Why not have an 1342 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:56,680 Speaker 3: after school program? And I have a summer? Why not 1343 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 3: write a book? 1344 01:06:57,360 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 4: Right? 1345 01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:00,600 Speaker 7: This isn't far from what you're doing. 1346 01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 6: Create a protocol that's that proves that by studying this way, check. 1347 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:08,960 Speaker 5: This out for you. 1348 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:13,360 Speaker 6: Create a protocol that says, if students do X, Y, 1349 01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 6: and Z, they see a twenty percent increase doing this 1350 01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 6: thing that I've created, they see a twenty percent increase 1351 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:23,800 Speaker 6: in their stamp scoops. Right, prove that in your school 1352 01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 6: and then now you got something right there that you 1353 01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:30,120 Speaker 6: could sit there and say, hey, twenty percent increase. I'm 1354 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 6: going to sell this to every school, right, I'm gonna. 1355 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 6: I'm gonna This protocol is proven to do this in 1356 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:40,080 Speaker 6: schools are interested in having their scores increased. And you 1357 01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:42,320 Speaker 6: got something right there that's that's fundable, and it could 1358 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:43,520 Speaker 6: be something as simple as a game. 1359 01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:44,760 Speaker 5: You just have to prove it. 1360 01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 4: That's fat and your software is proprietory, correct, ye, So 1361 01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:51,920 Speaker 4: are we going to i mean scale this where we're 1362 01:07:51,960 --> 01:07:55,880 Speaker 4: actually selling it the software to hospitals and healthcare agencies 1363 01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 4: as well. Yes, that's nice, Okay. 1364 01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:00,920 Speaker 6: So to get you the full I'm gonna give you 1365 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:03,480 Speaker 6: the full play. And I don't care because you know 1366 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:06,480 Speaker 6: if anybody who's listening, I'll compete to me. 1367 01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:09,440 Speaker 5: Right with my own idea. 1368 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 6: That's my problem, right and that and that means that 1369 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:15,160 Speaker 6: they're extraordinary as well, and that's probably somebody I wanted me. 1370 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 5: I'll give you. I'll give you the full story. So 1371 01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:20,600 Speaker 5: the software. 1372 01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:23,639 Speaker 6: Allowed on time allows me to run my operation very 1373 01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,719 Speaker 6: lead right. So I'm trying to bring everything onto the platform, 1374 01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:29,840 Speaker 6: so I eliminate paper, eliminate a lot of overhead and 1375 01:08:29,880 --> 01:08:32,439 Speaker 6: I could continue to outsource more and more of my 1376 01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:36,800 Speaker 6: talent too, you know countries where the wages are cheaper. Right, 1377 01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 6: So that's that's that's what's happening with all the time. 1378 01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:45,160 Speaker 6: I could license that out to you know, my competitors 1379 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:47,320 Speaker 6: so that they could become more efficient and I and 1380 01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:50,080 Speaker 6: I'm gonna charge and I charge per patient, right, So 1381 01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 6: when you wrote, my bottom line grows, right. But I 1382 01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:58,960 Speaker 6: also have an idea to franchise my business as well, 1383 01:08:59,320 --> 01:09:01,519 Speaker 6: because I get I get so many inquiries of how 1384 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 6: do I start? 1385 01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,160 Speaker 5: Can you consult me? You know? And and I hit 1386 01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 5: I tell them straight out. 1387 01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:09,439 Speaker 6: I was like, based on how much I make now, right, 1388 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:11,800 Speaker 6: I need to charge you one thousand dollars an hour 1389 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:13,040 Speaker 6: for my time. 1390 01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 5: Right. 1391 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:16,360 Speaker 6: And I know that's a lot of money, but that's 1392 01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:18,880 Speaker 6: what I need to charge you because that's how much 1393 01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:19,599 Speaker 6: I'm earning. 1394 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:20,160 Speaker 5: Right. 1395 01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,320 Speaker 6: So if I'm going to move my attention from what 1396 01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:25,000 Speaker 6: I'm doing, this is what it has to be. 1397 01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:27,200 Speaker 5: You get what I'm saying. So I get a lot 1398 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:28,519 Speaker 5: of those inquiries and they're like, you know what, how 1399 01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:31,280 Speaker 5: can I monetize this right in a larger way? 1400 01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:34,639 Speaker 6: And it's like, maybe I need to to franchise a book, 1401 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:37,479 Speaker 6: so that if they're either going to start a staffing 1402 01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:40,479 Speaker 6: company or they're going to start a home care agency. Hey, 1403 01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:42,240 Speaker 6: they're going to expand my brand, I'm going to earn 1404 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:44,880 Speaker 6: three percent on their on their revenue or whatever the 1405 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 6: case may be. They're going to use my software, that's 1406 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:51,640 Speaker 6: another fee, and I can turn when I'm taught, when 1407 01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:54,559 Speaker 6: it's time for me to acquire or expand, I can 1408 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 6: either acquire what I've created because they're work functioning on 1409 01:09:56,960 --> 01:10:00,120 Speaker 6: the same infrastructure as me, and I can buy them 1410 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,680 Speaker 6: out at five times earnings, and when I'm ready to go, 1411 01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 6: just start buying back what I've already seeded, you know 1412 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:08,000 Speaker 6: what I mean. That's that's one of the plays that 1413 01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:11,280 Speaker 6: I have in mind. So you know, on the other side, 1414 01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:15,160 Speaker 6: like I said, our core focus, our core vision, and 1415 01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:19,240 Speaker 6: the problem that we're solving with aid book is. 1416 01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 5: To solve that discharge planning process. 1417 01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:25,400 Speaker 6: Right, So that's that's a I'm just using the Google 1418 01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:27,519 Speaker 6: play here's the software for free. 1419 01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:30,679 Speaker 5: It's proven to reduce your readmission rates. 1420 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 6: But all that does it serves their bottom line, right, 1421 01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:37,080 Speaker 6: But all that does is allows me to collect all 1422 01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:41,160 Speaker 6: the referrals. So as I'm proving that this software reduces 1423 01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:44,960 Speaker 6: your readmission rates, right, and all of your referrals are 1424 01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:49,920 Speaker 6: all these all these six diseases are guaranteed to be discharged. 1425 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,920 Speaker 5: Through my solution. I control all the referrals. 1426 01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 6: I don't want to even charge them for that I can, 1427 01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 6: but I control all the referrals, so I can wrap 1428 01:10:58,080 --> 01:10:59,760 Speaker 6: them to my FRANCHISESE. 1429 01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:03,760 Speaker 5: I can route them to myself and grow massively because 1430 01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 5: I control your referrals. 1431 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:06,360 Speaker 6: And it's free, and it's and it's and it's service 1432 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:10,320 Speaker 6: is serving a basic need for your hospital. 1433 01:11:10,600 --> 01:11:11,800 Speaker 5: So that's that's a full plane. 1434 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:14,679 Speaker 6: So that's why for me, it's it's it's as simple 1435 01:11:14,720 --> 01:11:18,200 Speaker 6: as you know, what, if I only succeed in Miami 1436 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 6: and I don't expand, and I don't whatever, I definitely 1437 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:23,639 Speaker 6: could create what I what I have in New York, Right, 1438 01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:25,519 Speaker 6: I could bump that off for a few million dollars. 1439 01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 6: I could probably get to to maybe four times of 1440 01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 6: size and just my market and then made myself at 1441 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:34,400 Speaker 6: twenty five million. But I'm pretty damn sure that I'm 1442 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 6: going to get to the point that I'm saying that 1443 01:11:36,240 --> 01:11:37,840 Speaker 6: I'm going to get to, and then I'm going to 1444 01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:40,920 Speaker 6: have you know, maybe at one point two billion dollar exit. 1445 01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:43,679 Speaker 5: And that's and that's the thinking, and that's and that's 1446 01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:44,400 Speaker 5: what I have in my mind. 1447 01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:46,639 Speaker 6: It's like, how do I reach Like when you think 1448 01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:51,280 Speaker 6: about this thing about the virus, right, you got to 1449 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:54,599 Speaker 6: spread that thing, right so that it comes in contact 1450 01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:55,280 Speaker 6: with more people. 1451 01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:58,840 Speaker 5: And that costs to spread more and more and more. 1452 01:11:58,920 --> 01:11:59,679 Speaker 5: So you have. 1453 01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:02,639 Speaker 6: To kind of set up these little cells or kind 1454 01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:07,719 Speaker 6: of transmit all over the country to see real growth. 1455 01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:11,759 Speaker 5: You can't just saturate your one market. So that's the idea. 1456 01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:12,040 Speaker 5: For me. 1457 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:15,680 Speaker 6: It's like, all right, prove this concept, get it into hospitals, 1458 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:19,320 Speaker 6: go to the next hospital, say hospital one is using 1459 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:20,680 Speaker 6: this and every emission. 1460 01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:23,600 Speaker 5: Rates are down and it's free. Just use our system. 1461 01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:26,800 Speaker 6: Then going to the next city again, Like for me, 1462 01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:33,760 Speaker 6: the plan is Fort Laurdale, Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, if 1463 01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:35,280 Speaker 6: I prove if I prove it. 1464 01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:37,439 Speaker 5: There, and I'm going to prove it there. 1465 01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:39,840 Speaker 6: But when I prove it there, then it's back to 1466 01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 6: the venture capital firms and saying, hey, look we're now 1467 01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:46,760 Speaker 6: growing up five hundred patients a month in Florida or 1468 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:49,559 Speaker 6: whatever the number is.
