We are pleased to announce the formation of CASA (Certified Agents Specialist Association). CASA has been created by industry leaders to provide educational and networking opportunities for Repossession Companies, Lenders and Repossession Vendors nationwide to enhance their business practices.
You can see by many of the remarks who still believes and continues to incorporate old and antiquated business practices. Who are some of these people actually fighting? The forwarders? The clients? Their competition? As I have said numerous times, the “old timers” want it to go back to the way it was. Sorry guys/gals, that is never going to happen. The world is a dynamic environment and we as industry owners are not exempt from this fact. Our businesses have changed over the last 20 years in leaps and bounds. As some of the posts explain, changes include tow trucks, computers, camera systems. Get ready folks, CFPB is now in the ballgame. As of right now with the traditional trade associations, none of them truly know how this is going to impact our industry. However, CASA, with some of the members being considered industry leaders, has open dialogue with the lenders and we are asking the questions and getting direct answers. I have been provided training materials from the traditional trade associations in regards to the CFPB, and they are way off the mark. What they don’t get, the CFPB is a dynamic entity as well. They are constantly changing their own minds. CASA is speaking with the lenders and gaining their knowledge of what they (the lenders) have already been informed of what they need to have. So let’s not dance around a subject about a duck, we already have the traditional associations, and as far as I have seen, have been the lame duck for many years. If I go to a horse track to bet on a race, I can guarantee I am not going to put my wager on an old philly, but rather look to a younger horse that has the stamina, enthusiasm, and desire to prove itself on the track. As with CASA, it might be the young horse in this race of associations, but I can guarantee that the jockey’s for this horse have a lot of experience and know how to start, run, and better yet, finish the race. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting the same results, ie traditional trade associations. If you want to join the ranks of innovative industry leaders breaking the mold of insanity this industry has laid upon us, come join CASA.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a(DIFFERENT)result…
If anyone really wants to BREAK THE MOLD they should try working together with industry leaders for a change rather than running off and forming another association. Just say’n….
