BrandRep Sale Fuels Americor Funding Growth

IRVINE, CALIFORNIA (PRWEB) JANUARY 23, 2018

Americor, a leading provider of debt relief solutions, announced the sale of BrandRep to Millpond Equity Partners. The sale, which was finalized in December 2017, provides Benny Ganatra the capital that will fuel Americor Funding’s accelerated growth for 2018. The capital will be used to secure additional warehouse lines and will create 250 new jobs at Americor’s Irvine, California headquarters.

BrandRep is a leading provider of digital marketing solutions for small and midsize businesses (SMB), specializing in services that help organizations manage their online presence through local SEO, lead generation, among other services. The marketing company was established in 2012 by Americor Funding CEO, Benny Ganatra. As a former co-founder, Ganatra will continue to hold a minority interest in BrandRep and participate on the board of directors.

“I am honored to have worked alongside 150 dedicated employees that enabled 18,000 small businesses the opportunity to grow their customer base through digital marketing solutions and brand awareness,” said former BrandRep Chairman and CEO Ganatra. “The sale of BrandRep allows me to reinvest that capital into a new company, Americor, which will help families consolidate their debt and get back on track to financial stability.”

Industry veteran and investor Cary Burch will take over Ganatra’s role as BrandRep’s Executive Chairman and Interim-CEO.

“Benny has built an amazingly talented team of professionals, a solid position in the SMB market and a high-performance proprietary customer relationship management (CRM) technology that will play a key role in BrandRep’s continued success,” said Burch. “We are pleased to announce the sale, which demonstrates BrandRep’s value to the market.”

Focal Point Partners served as the exclusive financial advisor to BrandRep and the transaction closed in December 2017.
