Would love to hear how everyone is doing this summer! Our experience in the past is July/August are not as busy as other months of the year. However this year we are seeing steady business through July so far, both renewals and new biz. We are definitely noticing funders stepping up their email games BIG TIME trying to get more business from ISOs. Anyone else seeing a noticeable difference this summer?

Also here is an interesting article:

"Before the recession, about 80% of small business owners went to a bank first and when rejected, they turned to the internet to find funding. Today, 80% go online first, and some 60% of them are doing so via a mobile platform. Further, almost two-thirds (65%) fill out loan applications after 6:00 p.m. and on weekends — times outside traditional banking hours."
