Global Leasing

Program  cost: $19,950.00

In 2003, broker/lessor Global Leasing founder Phil Dushey created a new division to train independent salesmen in all the aspects of finance, including leasing ,accounts receivable financing, business acquisitions, debt restructuring, working  and venture capital. His students have found great success and he spends most of his time now developing entrepreneurs, who also utilize his knowledge and sources of funds.“

" We are not superbrokers and have never been one. Occasionally we will co-broker a transaction ,but generally we function as a lessor for our own accounts. 2. Our website address for our training is www.globalbrokersystems.com   3 When we train our students we do not have them send transactions through Global. We set them up to deal directly with the lenders. We also require that all lenders who work with our students will automatically approve them to do business with them.  Also our current price for the program is $24,950  We also model our training program from the experience we have from being in the business for about 25 years that a broker needs to serve all of the financial needs of their clients ,whether it be equipment leasing ,factoring,acquisitions,SBA Loans or debt restructuring, we do it all."

Leasing Partners, LLC

Formed by Ken Glasgow, President of Corporate Capital Leasing Group, Inc. and Sal Cozza, President of Flexlease Financial, have formed "Leasing Partners, LLC. Glasgow says they will train new brokers, “but will be distinctly difference from other schools. The emphasis
will be on 'Partners'."

"For $5900 we are offering a three day all expenses included (air, beach front hotel, meals) training session in Naples, Florida. It will be 'No BS' (boring statistics) training geared to enable the Broker to start making money the day they get home."\

"Due to the number of inexperienced people entering or wanting to enter the leasing industry, there have been a number of leasing schools being formed. As you have reported in the past, Corporate Capital Leasing Group, Inc. has had a successful Regional Manager program for over four years in which we have trained people to be Lease Brokers. Thanks to articles about us in Leasing News we have had requests to expand our program.

"We will eliminate the subjects that new Brokers don’t have to know to get started but that they will learn as part of their ongoing training which continues after they return to their office."

"Graduates of our training will have access to our online Bulletin Board that has over 300 posts where Brokers can search for information they need. They get 500 leads a month for the first 6 months together with postcards and mailing labels. We provide a full service back room and through our Agency Agreement access to dozens of funding sources. We can also provide a web site for the Broker if needed including an online application.

"Most important, we offer a formula where the Broker can earn a total refund of their training fee. We will 'Partner' with the Brokers to make sure they are successful. This is a turnkey Broker startup package that includes basic training.

Podium Partners

Podium Partners is basically an extension of the Goodman & Associates "Complete Lease Broker Training Course." Founded by Ken Goodman, CLP, Goodman & Associates will continue to offer training services and is on the Leasing News Financial & Sales Training list.

"I found that the missing component in that program was day to day ongoing support," Ken Goodman, CLP says." Certainly I was available to my graduates to offer answers to their questions and advise on marketing, but I couldn't commit the time to 'live with them' in terms of deal by deal processing/placement or helping them close a particular lease. This program offers that kind of intimate follow up.

"Rather than requiring clients to buy the whole package, they can choose from a 'menu' of services and buy only the components that interest them. The training program (with hotel costs, an HP17, T-Value and a CD with forms and letter samples) is $8000; we can design a corporate ID Package for them (website, brochure, cards and stationery) for $3000; and the ongoing support program is $600 a month. We think we will appeal to some established brokers who don't like tying up a lot of time on processing and would rather just sell, as well as those people looking for a 'business opportunity' as a new lease broker."
