info_outlineIn this week’s AmiSights Podcast, we dive into Joe McAleer’s journey and experience as Senior Director of Business Financing at MultiFunding. Joe talks about how he knew MultiFunding was the right fit from his first visit 11 years ago. He shares insights into MultiFunding’s unique approach, where the team acts as analysts first to ensure every loan opportunity is carefully evaluated and presented in the best light. “We are so hands-on; you know we are analysts before we are brokers. We dig in, we understand things, and we make sure that we're positioning an opportunity—or a loan request—in the best light possible. We also focus on understanding potential hurdles, the rules and regulations, and how we’re going to guide and advise people. Ultimately, we position them with the best resources to create success." We discuss key insights from MultiFunding, including how the team’s approach focuses on thorough analysis before acting as brokers, ensuring they position each loan request in the best light possible. We also explore how a prospective business buyer’s personal debt and financial needs impact their loan eligibility, as well as the unpredictable journey of running a business, which often follows the natural ebbs and flows rather than a straight line.
