FULL BIO
Is your company in need of working capital?
1. Do you ever need money to meet payroll or to make
tax deposits?
2. If you had more cash today could you grow your
business?
3. Does your business ever have growth spikes that
your bank is not willing to finance?
4. Has your bank refused to increase your line of credit
or denied your request for one?
5. Could your company qualify for cash discounts on
essentials if you had the cash out of your a/r now?
6. Would your financials look better if you cashed out
the a/r before a reporting period?
7. Do you understand the cost of lost opportunity and
could you use working capital to avoid that cost?
8. Do you ever wonder if there were some short-term
funding option that wouldn't be an albatross around
your neck in slow times, but would allow you to
access funding when your company needs it?
9. Would you like to fund your firm without giving away
any equity?
American Prudential can accelerate your cash flow by
funding on your commercial accounts receivable and giving you immediate cash to meet your needs. It doesn't cost anything to apply and let us tell you if we can work with your company. Is this something you would like to know more about?

| Employer: | The Fundraising Advantage |
| Position: | Pro Rep Mentor |
| Time period: | September 2005 - Present |
| Description: | TFA Mentor - TFA, particularly in Phase II is the ability to raise substantial monies without asking
for donations from members – at all. This is a remarkable point of departure and indeed a welcome ‘change of pace’ for both organization leaders and organization members. Imagine raising hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars for your church or Christian charity without having to ask loyal, yet somewhat beleaguered members to dig into their pockets for yet another ‘fund drive.’ If you run across anyone who would be open to receiving hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars for their ministry or faith-based non-profit without asking anyone for any money whatsoever? If we could take most of the fundraising responsibilities off their shoulders and help them accomplish their monetary goals in approximately 6-12 months, would you know anyone who might be willing to spend a few minutes to meet with our director? http://www.businessconferen...
