3 points on 250K you call a win? I call it getting your pants pulled down, off, and flung across the room.

Well that's your thought - but by getting this customer the cash he needed I also got a lease for 473,000 on equipment - and a satisfied customer who will refer other Business associates.

You posted looking for a lender yesterday at 1pm. You already got him funded and an equipment lease done for half a million bucks?

#1 You are an amazing salesperson.

#2 What is the name of the lender that made that happen? I need their contact information.

Not to mention, if the merchant already took out $400K+ on an equipment deal, all the above mentioned potential offers are null and void.

I have an offer from three funders subject to final all presented to client - the lease was in the works but he needed the money for building improvements in order to upgrade his plant and power systems all not things a lease can provide. I did not look for the cash improvements until final approval on the lease was given on Monday. Its called customer service and working the deal to closing.

The lenders are aware of the equipment deal and the use of funds. And before you get confused the improvements are on a property he leases triple net and his landlord is not responsible for upgrading to 880 Three Phase power systems and he has to pay the power company to upgrade the feed service to the building. He also needs to install some Direct Current and Battery backups to use the New Equipment.

You presented your offer to the client, and you think you are anywhere NEAR closing this deal? Yesterday was your first day wasn't it?

Its impossible to have an intelligent conversation with someone like you. The client has been a customer for 8 years on various leasing projects. And you wonder why this industry has such a bad reputation with people trying to bury the customer with Hugh commissions and fees. You want to rape clients on one time commission complaining that 3 percent on 250k is not a good days work and then you can do nothing but make smart ass comments to people who develop long term customers based on hard work and business solutions. This industry does really need some regulation.

Is this what your experience has led you to believe? That we need regulation and are a bunch of 'rapists'? Let me break it down pee-wee: 3 points on 250K is NOT a good "days" work. If you ever ran a business you would know that there are costs, like admin, rent, marketing, payroll, TAXES, etc. - You're a certified idiot. Have fun not closing this deal. I'm done.

You just made my case - You don't have Hugh marketing cost and payroll cost when you have repeat customers. You have to build relationships to get referrals. And the Bulk of our business with my partners is SBA and receivable and lease financing. If you just look at our customer list I can tell you that we have a stack of customers in Illinois whose credit has been hammered by the States Budget problems and they have been forced into short term borrowing - but that does not mean that I would take the route of burying them with expense loans and hit them for max commission. When Illinois and the Federal Government start paying again in under 6 months then all of these business's owners credit will recover.

And then we can refinance with SBA and bank products - and your right we will only earn 2 points on SBA loans and according to you nobody can run a business doing this type of lending.
