So, get nice and cozy, make yourself a cup of tea, coffee, hot chocolate or an invigorating herbal infusion and have a listen...
Once upon a time, there lived two young brothers named Firoz and Ferhan Patel who were born and raised in the lovely city of Montreal, nestled in the heart of Canada's only French province — Quebec. They grew up watching their parents run two successful businesses: one a grocery store and the other a home-based needle-trade business. Adopting their family's entrepreneurial spirit, both young men knew that they were destined for great things.
"I can't wait to get started!" said Firoz, right before he started his own comic book business in high school. This endeavor was so successful that he went on to study Business Administration in college to prepare for all of the industrious ideas he planned on executing upon graduation.
After showing limitless potential in the realm of commerce, Firoz was auspiciously dubbed Technology Officer for a company that developed business expense reporting software. After establishing himself and gaining the skills he needed to move to the next level and pursue his dreams, he opened a company specializing in offline sales processing — a choice that would change the course of his life forever.
His younger brother Ferhan also felt the winds of change and progress and went on to study Computer Science and Project Management in hopes of also pursuing a successful online career at some point in his life. The high kings of Montreal's leading consulting company recognized his potential and took him under their wings, giving him the lofty title of IT consultant.
After developing the potential that the high kings so valued, Ferhan left on a quest to fulfill his destiny, like his brother, and later joined a start-up company developing affiliate marketing software. His time at this company gave him the courage and the know-how to go off on his own. Not long after, he started his own e-commerce chocolate business to test out the software which turned into quite the lucrative venture.
One day, Firoz and Ferhan had a meeting of the minds and got to talking. "You know, I think it would be way more efficient if we used a payment processing solution for our businesses. What say you?" Asked Firoz. "That's a brilliant idea! Let's do it! We can create the solution ourselves!" Exclaimed Ferhan in a flurry of excitement. Right after, he sold his chocolate company, joined forces with his brother and brought AlertPay to the world's fingertips... literally.
They started off with a little over a handful of employees: 6, including themselves. The team often sat around the round table, discussing ways to gain some authority over their land and eventually take over the world... of payment processing.
Slowly but surely, the round table grew to include more than 50 new knights and ladies, including Lady Shannerella of Customer Support, Sir Ogsworth of Resolutions, Lady Elizabeth of Business Analysis, Sir Jaywyn of Banking, Sir Olivier of Software Development and so many others with the power to bring AlertPay to the next level and help fight off the competing kingdoms known for bribing sheriffs and destroying trade routes.
Still in the company of the original team and countless other new additions, Firoz keeps an eye on the far reaches of the e-commerce realm and works on building alliances with like-minded folk, while Ferhan presides over the more immediate kingdom and his fleet of gifted knights and ladies. They are now finally propelling their empire to the myriad corners of the online world in hopes of offering their three plus million citizens of the realm the ability to securely send and receive money online from the comfort of their own home or office.
