Recently, NCT founder and CEO Marty Halpern sat down to discuss his experience, his company, and the future of the check guarantee industry, with Jerod Morris, who is in charge of NCT’s online brand management. The transcript of their discussion is below:
Jerod Morris: Thank you for taking the time to talk with me today, Mr. Halpern.
Marty Halpern: Call me Marty, please.
JM: Thank you, Marty. As we begin, why don’t you provide our readers with a quick background on yourself and NCT.
MH: Well, I was born in New York City and have lived here in South Florida since 1985. I am married with two teenage kids who keep my wife and I very busy.
JM: Why did you choose Ft. Lauderdale, FL as the place you wanted to live?
MH: In 1993, when my wife and I decided to have children we chose Ft. Lauderdale as the place. It is family oriented and I knew that eventually, I wanted to move my company here. We actually made the move in Sept. of 2001 to Miramar just west of Ft. Lauderdale.
JM: What led you to start your own business?
