BrightStar Care Franchisee Secures Business Loan Using BoeFly.com to Open his First Location

NEW YORK - March 16, 2015 - PRLog -- BoeFly.com, the premier online marketplace connecting small business borrowers with lenders announced today that Tony Memarianfard, a BrightStar Care franchisee, secured a start-up business loan from AccessBank Texas, in North Texas, through a connection made by BoeFly.

Tony Memarianfard, a real estate research expert and investor, was committed to opening a BrightStar Care franchise in the Dallas area. With Memarianfard’s expertise, he knew that getting his homecare and medical staffing business funded in this environment could be a challenge.

“Fortunately, I chose to invest in a BrightStar Care franchise, which supports its franchisees in many ways—one important way is with financing. BrightStar Care recommended I use the BrightStar Care Finance Center powered by BoeFly in order to connect to a network of lenders and have the best chance of finding financing at competitive rates and terms,” said Tony Memarianfard.

Borrower connects with 18 lenders to secure business loan

Memarianfard was connected with 18 lending institutions that competed to win his business.  One lender that the new franchisee found on BoeFly was from Eleina Leon from AccessBank Texas, who ultimately provided the SBA loan. "I'm thrilled to have met Tony, a sophisticated entrepreneur through BoeFly,” said Eleina Leon, VP of SBA Lending at AccessBank Texas. “My bank has had great success in using BoeFly to efficiently find new borrowers like Tony.”

“The reason BrightStar Care is so popular for new business owners is for the proven support and guidance we deliver,” said  Shelly Sun, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of BrightStar Care. “BrightStar Care looks at financing as one of the key ways that we can help, which is why we partnered with BoeFly to be able to give our franchisees access to a network of 5,000+ lenders.  BoeFly is available to both our first time franchisees looking to start-up, as well as to our existing franchisees looking to expand. BoeFly has been a supportive partner in BrightStar Care’s growth since we began our partnership a few years ago.”

“BoeFly was created to make sure business owners like Tony Memarianfard who are looking to start-up a small business, aren’t hindered by the lack of access to capital,” said Mike Rozman, Co-President of BoeFly. “The more efficiently business owners can secure the financing they need, the more jobs get created.”
