LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc. (“LEAF”) announces the expansion of its Major Account Program Group with the addition of two new Business Development resources; Lori Wilson and Brian Jankins. Both will report to the Vice President of Major Account Programs, Bryan Spence, with Lori residing in LEAF’s Moberly office and Brian Jankins working in LEAF’s satellite office in Boston, MA. Combined they bring over 40 years of industry experience to LEAF.
Brian Jankins joined LEAF in February 2012 as the Director of Major Account Programs. Prior to joining LEAF, Brian spent 19 years in the financial services industry working in various operations, sales and management roles for companies such as GM, GE Capital and AT&T Capital. Brian brings to LEAF an exceptional track record in the development and management of small ticket major account programs that compliment LEAF’s core market strategy.
Lori Wilson has been with LEAF since November 2007, she was most recently the Director of Sales and in January 2012, due to her ability to assist LEAF’s partners in maximizing their lease financing programs was promoted to the Major Account Programs Group as the Director of Major Account Program Development. This new role will allow Lori to build on the valuable Manufacturer relationships she has developed at LEAF and throughout her career.
These new resources will be focused on the market adoption of MAP 360°, LEAF’s proprietary partnering approach, focused strictly on serving the Manufacturer, Distributor or Captive Finance Organizations. MAP 360° provides these sectors with a highly targeted financing offering focused on streamlining their processes and accelerating the sales cycle resulting in enhanced program adoption rates and elevating their financing program to a true selling strategy.
Vincent Faino, Senior Vice President of Sales stated, “LEAF is an established leader in developing results driven Manufacturer and Distributor financing solutions. Our MAP 360° offers our program partners a true discipline that when fully implemented can significantly reduce expenses while maximizing every revenue opportunity. To accomplish this it takes real effort in understanding our partner’s business goals, product strategy, target markets and selling process on a continuous basis. Simply just rolling out a program is not sufficient anymore because of the complexities of an ever changing marketplace. These new additions to our MAP team will provide the dedicated resources and experience our partners need to keep their financing offerings relevant and impactful.”
