ON DIRECT LENDING
B2B funding through Merchant cash advance.
SUMMARY:
Dade Strategic Syndication Co. is a Master Trust Fund with a standing Joint
Venture Contract with US Working Capital a Private Hedge Fund who is our
Vendor Fund. This contractual relationship makes us the only Fund authorized
to make Direct Merchant Cash Advances on behalf of the US Working Capital
or through our platform of 591 Corresponding Syndication Funds who are
both Private and Public Hedge Funds. As an Independent Contractor all of our
Advances are underwritten, funded and syndicated through US Working
Capital platform(s).
Your role as an independent contractor for Dade Strategic Syndication Co.
begins with you being you being assigned leads thus resulting in your first
initial phone call and perhaps most important communication with a
potential client. This is your shot to build a relationship and make the
merchant feel comfortable with the process of applying for a cash advance
on their future business.
POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN ENGAGING THE MERCHANT:
Grab their attention!
a) Don't sound like the typical salesman that you would normally hang up on.
b) Get right to the point with the introductory lines of You inquired on the
internet in the past... still need capital?" If so I have great news we are a
Direct Lender!
c) Try to relate to the person- make them like you, make them laugh do
something to stand out, make an attempt you have nothing to lose.
i) Don't try too hard...some people are all business, so don't be the
instigator of unnecessary small STtalk with these people, ask what they

need help with in order to
increase
their profits.

How will they spend the money?
19.
Have them give you a break down?
20.
Above all else this will demonstrate you are taking an
underwriting approach and not a sales man approach.
21.
Everyone will say Ok but you will probably know to reduce
the amount advnaced, if you know all the items they will be
using the working capital for so you can say "I may not be able to
help you with the equipment and the cash flow, but we can help

the cash flow for now and get you the money for the equipment
in a couple of months."

THE PROGRAM THAT FITS:
23.
client on.
24.
Let them know, they may be qualified for several different
programs; explain them all if applicable.
25.
Tell them the strengths and weaknesses of each program.
26.
Some people may have a negative connotation about the
MCA due to past encounters with MCA salesmen, be sure to let
them know that we finance business who do not except credit
cards as well with ACH.
27.
Determine what tier of pricing the client will fall within.
MANAGE THEIR EXPECTATIONS NO NEED TO BE SPECIFIC:
28.
simple.
31.
This is a waste of yours and the underwriting departments
time and money.
32.
Give them a range of an expected term length and explain
to the how term length, cost and payments are related. When
first engaging the merchant always explain they get two of three
choices while dealing with a cash advance a. the amont, b. the
rate, c. the term. High amount with longer term can mean low
daily paymnets. High Amounts with lower rates can mean high
daily paymnets. Lower amount with either lower rate or term is a
more flexible negotiaton for the Merchant.
COMFORT:
a. Devil's advocate approach (encourage them to take less than max);
b. Money is a sensitive subject so you don't want to sound like your trying
too hard to give them money ... fishy;
c. Be upfront and honest. Don't be afraid to admit the money is
expensive, but also explain how it can be extremely helpful if used
wisely.
d. Remember act more like an underwriter rather than a salesman!
