Good morning or good afternoon to you. This is Marcos here at Amada Senior Care. Thank you so much for taking the time to join us to hear from one of our franchise partners. And by the way, this call is for you. The reason we do these calls so you can ask questions. So if it's your first time you've ever listened to one of our phone calls or if you've been following Amada Senior Care for a long time, welcome. And again this is a call for you. So before we start, just want to do a few things. For those of you who are joining us live, in order for you to ask questions, there's two ways for you to do this. One is you just go to the question box in the go to webinar panel and in fact would it be really cool is if you are here with us and you can see the question box, click on it and just say hello.

Hi. Anything you want to do? Tell me what the weather is like or what your favorite team is. I don't know. Put something in there just to know that I can see that you found the question box. Okay, cool. So some of you are coming in letting us know that you can hear us loud and clear. Thank you for that. So that's one way to ask questions. Muggy in LA and Will from Maryland. Okay cool. So we got some good folks there. So thank you for doing that. It really helps us know that we're going out to you loud and clear and by the way, if there's an issue with audio, please go in there and if you can't hear us or something's going on, let us know so we can fix the audio. Now the other way to ask questions, which is the way that we prefer that we love for you to do is raise your hand.

What we'll do is unmute you and you can ask a question live from Kevin and Greg and asking the live question allows you to have a followup, right? You could have like a four part question and again, this is really for you guys, so let me go ahead and share my screen here. All right, there we go. So I'm sharing my screen now. Real quick. Before I introduce you to Kevin and Greg, I wanted to tell you real quick, for those of you who are brand new to Amada Senior Care who don't know what we do, just real briefly, we are a senior care company, which means we send caregivers to seniors' homes to take care of activities of daily living. That is things like dressing, bathing, walking, grooming, toileting, and then also other things like meal preparation, companionship, even driving the senior to a doctor's appointment or to the grocery store.

It's really whatever it takes to help that senior thrive in their home. Now when home is not ideal, we can also help them find services like going to an assisted living, helping them with affording the care through veteran's administration, longterm care insurance, or whatever it takes. We really talk about the fact that we're like the navy seals of home care because although it is important to have amazing caregivers, it's also really important to help them navigate all of the crazy options that are out there. As Kevin and Greg will tell you here in a little bit, when you are in the situation of finding care for a loved one, it is absolute chaos. It is really difficult to find out and figure out what is you need to do to make sure you can provide the best care for your loved one. And that's what we're really here to do.

So that's Amada Senior Care and as you're going through this process, you're going to find out a lot more about Amada, what the process is, what does it mean to become a Franchisee, but that is going to come in the process as you go through and it takes a little bit of time. We'll walk you through that, but today I want to introduce you to Greg Hines and Kevin Manuel. I've got their profiles here on Linkedin because I know that they are cool with you guys reaching out to them, connecting with them on linkedin. So here's Gregory Hines and Kevin Manuel.
