HomeCoast In Action
What Our Clients Are Saying About HomeCoast
"My
business was literally month-to-month. My business partner and I would
sit down with the finances at the end of the month and have a hard
discussion about closing the doors. We had over 20 employees counting
on us. We just couldn't solve the cash flow crisis. Our customers' slow
pay held our cash flow for ransom, keeping us from completing our next
project. The day my HomeCoast rep walked through our door was the day
our business turned around. Now, we have the cash we need to deliver
projects on time."
-Ryan, Creative Director for a Graphic Design and Marketing Firm
"I
was skeptical about factoring because of some horror stories I've heard
from some of my business associates. From the moment I spoke to my
Account Executive at HomeCoast, my concerns were put to rest. They were
knowledgeable, honest and I couldn't believe how easy it was. I'm so
thankful that HomeCoast contacted me."
-Martina, CFO for an Industrial Manufacturer
"We
had the opportunity to bid a huge project that our competitor dropped
the ball on. We needed to get some cash to staff up and prepare to
handle this opportunity. I went to my bank…turned down. Another
bank…turned down. They didn't like the fact that we had negative growth
in the last year. Nevermind that we had double-digit growth for the
previous 8 years! After being turned down by 5 banks, we accepted the
fact that we would have to pass on the project. HomeCoast Capital met
with us and put together a finance strategy for getting us the cash we
need. They had all the answers to our questions and their rates were
very reasonable. Long story short, we won the project and are on track
for our most profitable year in 9 years!"
-Doug, Operations Manager of a Steel Fabrication Plant
Spotlight on Success
Problem:
A staffing company is constantly waiting 60 to 90 days to get paid from
their customers. Their staff is 100% commission, so they are having
horrible employee turnover due to inability to collect fees in a timely
manner to pay the sales force.
Solution: HomeCoast set up a receivables financing relationship and took their turn time on invoices from months to days.
Result:
The client was able to hire back two of their top sales reps that had
left the company, as well as three experienced recruiters, because they
can offer something that their competition cannot-an immediate return
on the sales rep's efforts.
Problem:
A boat manufacturer had their warehouse burn to the ground, completely
destroying all inventory and supplies. They had numerous orders to
fulfill and no cash flow to do so.
Solution:
The client had 2 large purchase orders that HomeCoast Capital was able
to finance, giving them access to enough cash to begin filling their
current orders.
Result:
Although it took some time to get back to full operating capacity, the
client was able to start generating revenue almost immediately after
the tragedy, keeping them in business and allowing their cash flow to
replenish over time.
Problem:
A screen printing company had the opportunity to branch out into the
uniform sales market, which would triple their gross sales within two
years. They needed two large pieces of equipment. However, they did not
have the cash to purchase the equipment and could not qualify for a
lease due to the owner having a past bankruptcy.
Solution:
The client had purchase order commitments from several uniform
companies. HomeCoast was able to finance those purchase orders and
provide the working capital to purchase the two pieces of equipment
immediately.
Result: Within
weeks, the client was producing product and fulfilling orders. They
have had so much success in the uniform market that they have
completely overhauled their marketing and sales emphasis to focus on
this new opportunity. They predict that the uniform market will be over
50% of their total product mix by year end.
