Camp Bow Wow Selects BoeFly to Assist Its Franchisees in Obtaining Bank Financing
Leading pet services franchisor to offer BoeFly’s Concierge Team Services to its franchisees nationwide.
New York, NY, April 02, 2011 --(PR.com)-- BoeFly, the premier online marketplace connecting lenders with business borrowers, announced today that Camp Bow Wow, the nation’s largest pet services company, has selected BoeFly to assist its franchisees in obtaining bank financing.
Nearly half (49.2%) of the respondents in a recent survey by the International Franchise Association (IFA) of its members identified “financing/access to credit” as the top issue of concern to franchise business leaders. In response to this concern, and bolstered by its success in helping many individual franchisees obtain financing, BoeFly created a portfolio of services for the franchisor market. Through BoeFly, they can offer their franchisees access to a network of lenders through the posting of a single loan request on BoeFly’s Internet-based loan exchange, assistance in creating an effective loan request, and support managing lender inquiries. BoeFly uses proprietary matching technology to connect franchisees with lenders that their loan package meets specific lending criteria, increasing franchise revenue by helping franchisees connect with the capital they need to open their businesses.
Camp Bow Wow is a premier doggy day and overnight care camp in North America that boasts an all-day play environment for its campers. The camp combines fun, safety and service for its campers. Currently there are over 100 locations across North America.
“Camp Bow Wow franchise owners give a great experience to our pet campers and we’ve turned to BoeFly so all of our franchisees can have a great experience in seeking financing,” said Heidi Ganahl, founder and CEO of Camp Bow Wow. All current and future Camp Bow Wow franchisees will now have access to professional resources to help them complete their loan requests and a service that will match them with compatible lenders from among over 500 banks from around the country through the leading online business loan marketplace.
“Today even top franchisors face a significant challenge – converting otherwise qualified franchisee candidates into ongoing, paying customers because of the difficulty they have accessing capital,” said David Nayor, President of BoeFly. “Franchise lending has been down by as much as 40% in the past two years due in part to the inefficiencies in the lending process that have been exposed by the financial crisis. BoeFly eliminates these inefficiencies by connecting franchisees with banks that are ready and willing to lend.”
