Marc Kieckenapp, CEO of NextBigFranchise.com, explains that he chose Guidant Financial Group as the site’s exclusive financing partner because they are the leading provider of franchise financing services in the country. “While there are many companies that provide a service,” he says in a press release on the new partnership, “Guidant is one of the few that offers an array of franchise financing solutions through the industry’s most experienced team of consultants.”

Conversely, Guidant is equally pleased to have been selected by NextBigFranchise as their financing partner because of the unique prospective the website has on the franchise buying process.

NextBigFranchise.com is the only web portal that offers video as a way to explore different franchise opportunities. “We are in a time when people want to ‘look before they leap,’ if you will,” explains Guidant Cofounder David Nilssen. “With the use of video, NextBigFranchise.com can provide prospective entrepreneurs with a level of information and discovery currently unavailable in the marketplace.”

With the way the economy is going, we can’t help but believe that by providing prospective entrepreneurs with the resources they need to realistically consider self-employment we can do our part to help resuscitate America.

“While asset values have come back, consumer confidence is up, and the economy is turning a corner, both rising unemployment and a credit crisis continue to affect us,” explains Nilssen. “There are millions of Americans who could pursue self-employment but who don’t understand how to get started, or how they might finance a franchise.”

And that’s why we’re so excited about our new relationship with NextBigFranchise.com. Check it out!
