Helma Mazon never specifically planned to work in the financial world. She grew up in Charleston, West Virginia. "My parents always instilled in me that I could do anything if I really wanted to," she said. After earning a B.B.A. in business from Marshall University in Huntington, W. Va., she married John Mazon, Sr., an Army pilot, and worked as an assistant manager for the Army and Air Force Exchange in Fort Rucker, Alabama. The couple moved to Dallas after John's term with the Army ended and a job offer from Braniff materialized. But, it was simple luck that introduced Helma to the factoring business. Her Sunday school teacher was a business consultant and offered financing by way of factoring to some of his clients. After running into difficulties with his business, he asked Helma to factor his small customers. After visiting his business one afternoon to help, she decided, "This was for me. I had never been given an opportunity to do something that I would like, that I could do and that I would make money at the same time," she said. After she had applied for a loan to start her factoring company in 1976, a banker advised Helma to go home and "don't waste your husband's money." Luckily, she and John did not listen to the first banker, but they did receive a bank loan from the second bank they went to for a loan. In the late 1980's, a bank called Helma because of her expertise in evaluating troubled loans. During that time period Mazon Associates was called upon by many banks to assist with troubled loans to help with credit, collections, and account management. When she went to the office, she noticed that the bank president looked familiar. Helma asked what Dallas banks he had worked for. He laughed and admitted, "I'm the banker who said go home and don't waste your husband's money." Helma was 33 years old at the time and had three small children. She ran her business from her home for six years and loved it. Her philosophy concerning career and motherhood is simple, "If I ever convince anyone of anything in this life, it is to stay home with your children when they are young. You have plenty of time to have a career.
