  Speaker 1: When I say co-signing, I'm not talking about signing up for the car note of your kid or your cousin or your significant other.

  Speaker 1: I'm talking about the people out there in the community that you believe in, the people that you connect with, the people that inspire you.

  Speaker 1: And there's some responsibility that comes with this idea, because people trust you.

  Speaker 1: You have influence.

  Speaker 1: You may not be aware of it, but I pinky promise you do.

  Speaker 1: People look to you and take note of who you support, whose posts you comment on, the type of subject matter that you share.

  Speaker 1: The very first time I went to get a haircut at the exclusive way, there was a young barber working on my do and he got a little bit off track and he voiced it to Isaiah, who's the owner operator of the business, and Isaiah took the time to walk him through.

  Speaker 1: He didn't chastise him, he didn't get irritated.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: It was clear to me that a mistake had been made, but Isaiah was patient, he was thorough, he was direct and professional, and the leadership that he demonstrated through that haircut helped me know, without a doubt, that I am co-signing him.

  Speaker 1: So one I want to say if you're in the deuce dime, the 210 San Antonio area, you got to go check out the exclusive way and hook up with my buddy, isaiah, and hook up with the boys there at the exclusive way.
