WELCOME !

Thanks for dropping in for some hopefully great business info and on occasion some hopefully not too sarcastic comments on the state of Business Financing in Canada and what we are doing about it !

In 2004 I founded 7 PARK AVENUE FINANCIAL. At that time I had spent all my working life, at that time - Over 30 years in Commercial credit and lending and Canadian business financing. I believe the commercial lending landscape has drastically changed in Canada. I believe a void exists for business owners and finance managers for companies, large and small who want service, creativity, and alternatives.

Every day we strive to consistently deliver business financing that you feel meets the needs of your business. If you believe as we do that financing solutions and alternatives exist for your firm we want to talk to you. Our purpose is simple: we want to deliver the best business finance solutions for your company.

BUSINESS SPEAK - I DON'T MISS IT !

There was a great article in FORBES ON-LINE today about how many people detest the business speak jargon that is widely in use in the corporate environment . I worked for large companies for 30 years and can certainly vouch as being an offender . Only when you're on the outside do you realize the uselessness of some of these terms :

Lets cover of some of the most over used ones and let the guilty recognize themselves as appropriate :

touch base
circle the wagons
get everyone on the same page
full service
over the wall
take it to the next level
tee it up
circle back

The article sums it up nicely by saying that people use these words in the corporate environment to sound important but they don't make any sense and just hide inadeqacies.

FINALLY - If you understand the attached call me on my direct line anytime 416 319 5769 to explain!

' At the meeting we can touch base, circle the wagons, and get everyone on the same page - that way we wont ignore the low hanging fruit and the intellectual needle wont move anywhere. However that limites our bandwidth and the troops want to drink from the high level fire hose . We dont want game changing paradigm shifters, instead lets take it to the next level.
