If you are a direct marketer, on the Web, TV, radio or all-of-the-above,   Media Funding Corporation can give you the ability to rapidly scale up your business revenues. We do this in two ways, by funding media buys and by factoring receivables. MFC’s funding services prepay the cost of media, which is the #1 cost in all direct marketing campaigns.  

Our factoring programs pay cash for the lion’s share of receivables on multi-pay and/or continuity campaigns.  When MFC prepays media, our payback schedules function in a way that will neither strain your cash-flow nor disrupt your day-to-day business activities.  You repay us as you collect revenue from the sales that the media creates.  Repayment is handled through your credit card and ACH sales.

MFC Factoring allows direct marketers to receive up to 80% of their multi-pay and/or continuity revenues 7 days after the first payment is processed.  And this is a client-favorable non-recourse loan which allows for more revenue after fees, interest and contingencies are fulfilled. Media Funding does not take over control.  It is your creative effort that drives the profits.  MFC will not interfere with the process.  You choose your Media Agency, fulfillment house, telemarketing, order processing, etc.

MFC provides this cash-flow opportunity without your having to give up equity in your business or enter into a long-term situation with an outside resource such as a bank or private equity firm.  It’s your business—run it as you see fit! Media Funding has been in business since 1999.   Everything we do is based on the proposition that keeping cash in the hands of marketers who know how to use cash to make more cash is the way to go. And business is great!

PETER BIELER--PRESIDENT

Peter Bieler is president of Media Funding Corporation, the leading funding source in the television direct response industry.  The company, in business since 1996, funds media purchases so marketers can make major media buys quickly to build revenues and take advantage of marketing momentum. Media Funding also factors “Multi-Pay” receivables and continuity programs to help marketers with their cash flow needs. The company recently announced new funding programs for the performance based marketing, or web affiliate industry, which it introduced at Affiliate Summit East in New York in August 2009.

Before founding Media Funding in 1996, Mr. Bieler co-founded Ovation, Inc to sell products on TV in short or long form.  He found a product called the V-Toner leading an unglamorous life as a rehabilitative device for injured skiers.  He re-named it the ThighMaster®, hired Suzanne Somers as spokesperson, and set records for short form sales.  Bieler is the author of a well regarded book on the direct response industry titled This Business Has Legs about his experiences creating and running the ThighMaster campaign. The memoir was commissioned and published by John Wiley and Sons in 1996.  He has been quoted in Worth Magazine, Publisher's Weekly, The San Francisco Chronicle, Response TV, DM News and others. His writing has been featured in Success Magazine, and he has lectured on direct response marketing in New York , Washington DC, Los Angeles , San Francisco and San Diego .  Contact Peter at pbieler@mediafunding.com
