"For our recent expansion, we had a number of options when it came to financing, including using some of the companies we had used before.  We chose InSource Capital because of their low rates and reputation for top quality service.  They were able to steer us through several unexpected hiccups during the construction process and I will definitely use them again next time!"

"Starting a new business involves a lot of unfamiliar moving parts and it is a challenge to ensure that everything is being done correctly and on time.  Brian and Cindy at InSource Capital were wonderful to work with.  They helped steer us through the lending process and were very patient with us as we looked for sites and negotiated with landlords.  Their expertise and advice was priceless.  I highly recommend them to anyone that is going through the franchise process."

"I was able to finance my first two salons myself but wanted to take advantage of conventional financing for my recent expansion.  I investigated the various partners referred to me by Great Clips and chose to work with InSource Capital.  Brian Link and his team offered very competitive pricing along with a high degree of professionalism that made me very happy with my decision.  I would recommend them to any Great Clips franchisee."

"I've worked with InSource for years and have always been just incredibly happy with the job they do for me.  Brian knows what he's doing and has always been very responsive.  Cindy and the rest of the office staff are very helpful and efficient.  They are so easy to work with it's like a dream come true. I would strongly recommend InSource any day of the week!"

"We had the option of using some other lenders recommended by Great Clips but decided to work with InSource because of the high level of professionalism they demonstrated during our negotiations. That professionalism was demonstrated again when InSource was able to fund our transaction within 5 business days, in spite of certain unexpected issues that came up at the last minute. I would highly recommend InSource to all my colleagues."

“Brian provided financing for me in my first Great Clips. It was an acquisition. Brian was upfront about the amount that he could finance, and he delivered on that. When I had concerns, he worked with me on negotiations with the lender and helped us arrive at a reasonable compromise. As a former lender, Brian is very knowledgeable in this area.”

-A. Jerome Fowlkes, Great Clips Franchisee

"Brian said he would provide good service and did. Cindy was excellent; patient and helpful. We will use InSource again for our future expansion.
