"We would like to express our sincere appreciation for the role your firm has had in Leapfrog's successful growth. During the two years we worked together, your support was instrumental to our operation. At times our needs required you to look "outside the box" to see how we would work through some difficult cash-flow issues. You had the vision to see our strategy and the strength to believe it. Without your assistance, we would not have been able to grow from a start-up to annual revenues over $10 million in less than 18 months. Thank you again for all of your help..."

"Since the inception of On Point Personnel Services, Inc., BFI® has remained loyal and consistent as our financial business partner through both good and bad times. In the summer of 1999, my partners and I came to your with a concept, one that certainly required you to have a level of trust and confidence in what we were selling. I thank you for your vision and belief in On Point. Without your help and belief, the vision we had would never have materialized or afforded us the opportunity to help so many others reach their financial goals or sustainability in life. So you see, the domino effect is tremendous, your business financing has touched the lives of so many without you possibly even knowing its overall cascading effect.
Dave, I can't say enough good things about you personally and the wonderful staff behind the scenes at your organization. As On Point continues to evolve, I only hope I'm able to emulate some of the corporate philosophies and business practices you and your team employ. Your sound advice and council over the years has proven to be invaluable. Quite often as we would discuss things like employee benefits, holiday functions, pay practices, etc., I found myself looking at ways that I in turn could make my company a better place for people to work and where others would want to work."

"BFI's financing was extremely important to making our management lead buyout work. Our day to day interaction with BFI has been very smooth, and overall our experience has been very positive."

"Thank you and the BFI® team for helping our company get out of the starting block. We became an S-corporation last May when you provided us with our first Accounts Receivable credit facility. Without your team's support, BrandVia would not be where we are today, which is a properly funded, growing, and profitable organization providing livelihood to our 21 employees/families. Thank you and your team for the opportunity to become a part of the community and realize that anything can be accomplished with the right team. You were definitely one of the key components of our success."

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank BFI® for all of the help your firm has given over the past year. From the first meeting with Jeff Johnson and continuing on to dealing with your staff, your organization has shown us nothing but professionalism and respect. At a time when our business was in a situation where we were not attractive to a corporate banker, your firm worked with us and extended a line of credit based first on our work, and subsequently on the documentation to back it up, and had that line of credit in place and available within a week of our first conversation. It was absolutely amazing.
Your organization is a rarity; a firm that is willing to work with companies that show promise, but need help to get there."

"It's my pleasure to write to you to commend your company and its staff for the outstanding quality of service and products that our company has received. Frankly, in the world of finance, I believe that this sort of treatment of customers escapes most companies, but not the staff of BFI®. They have continually kept up with the financials rigors and demands of our growing business.
I would like to thank you, Mr. Drogos, for assembling such a good team of dedicated and professional personnel, with which companies such as my own can take advantage of through the course of growth and maturity."

"Four years ago we recieved a flyer from you that offered a means for our company to have easier and quick access to cash...I remember when we first met and you told us that your goal was to be an interim solution for growing companies and that you would be thrilled to see us grow to a level where we could meet the more desireable terms of the banks.
Well we did grow; our revenues went from $600 thousand to $125 million in only 5 years. We were able to move on to bank financing as we grew, and BFI® was a bridge to that future when we were more risk than other institutions would bet on.
Thanks for your support during our growth. Any growing company would be fortunate to have you help finance their growth.

"Thank you and your staff at BFI® for your assistance over the last two years. You have helped us more than double in size by helping us purchase our largest competitor and financing our operating capital until we were back to the ratios traditional banking requires.
The communication, flexibility, and professionalism you and the BFI® staff showed was of the highest standard. We would be pleased to recommend your company and business financing services to any of our fellow business partners."

"...after more than twenty years of running our company, BFI® took more personal interest, asked more insightful questions, and more clearly understood what our business was about than any lenders we've dealt with before.
When we moved from the world of "conventional" banking, we were forewarned that the personal courtesies and services expected in a banking relationship would be missing. The fact is, we've experienced just the opposite. From our first week with BFI®, our accounting folks praised your staff as being easy to work with and responsive to our needs.
As much as we appreciate your staff, the real reason we are working with BFI® is that you were willing to come through when others were unable. Where other lenders only saw numbers, BFI® saw opportunity. And after our meeting today, it's clear that BFI® shares with us the philosophy of preserving long-term relationships by making good near-term decisions. That philosophy makes you the perfect match for our business."

"I wanted to take a minute and thank you and your organization for the great service you provide. You were able to provide us the access to working capital we needed to complete our turn-around. Your team worked in an efficient and friendly manner, allowing us to focus on running our business. In addition, your daily reports and access to D&B services allowed us to manage our receivables tightly. You have kicked me back to the painful world of traditional banking and reluctantly I will go, but feel free to use me as a reference."
