In the August 2006 national opinion poll sponsored by E-Myth Worldwide and completed by Synovate1, 6-million Americans who are currently working say they plan to strike out on their own and start a new business in the next 12 months. Respondents 18-years and older reported that their 3-major concerns of being a new entrepreneur are:

1. 44% expressed a lack of business knowledge and confidence.

2. 44% raising the money to start their business, and

3. 39% expressed a concern about economic and competitive climates.

We help your franchisee solve number 2 and in doing so number 1 solves itself.

For most franchisees securing financing for their business is a new experience. Developing a business plan and financial projections are difficult. Navigating the loan forms application process is difficult. Franchisees with unique or special circumstances cannot find the answers they need resulting in many not getting the financing they need or getting it timely.

Even with a business plan, “where do you go to get financing that best meets your current and future needs?” Most try a local bank with marginal success. Next you may struggle with a home equity loan and equipment lease combination – neither the most cost effective nor the best long-term financing plan, especially if you are planning for additional locations.

Our niche -- we have secured financing for many franchisees by helping them create an effective Business Plan that answers the lenders questions. We understand the franchise business model. We have national lenders that we use to get franchisees the best financing terms for conventional or SBA backed loans and at the lowest rates so they can concentrate on building their business.
