This week, I sit down with EJ Ferrer to talk about his incredible journey from a collecting enthusiast to card dealer, card show promoter, and now the Director of Dealer Relations at Fanatics Events!

EJ has evolved from flipping cards in the early days to setting up as a dealer at shows. He then leveraged his design and marketing skills to help promote smaller local shows, eventually becoming the co-founder and Executive Director of The Burbank Card Show.

At the start of 2024, EJ accepted his current position as Director of Dealer Relations with Fanatics Events.

In this episode, we discuss a variety of topics including:
• How he grew from promoting small shows to large-scale events
• Incredible insights and knowledge about the collectibles space
• The goals he and his team have at Fanatics Events
