For more than 14 years, www.OnlineBKmanager.com has provided bankruptcy marketing tools to subprime dealers.

“This new partnership with www.OnlineBKmanager.com will allow our dealers to further target the BK segment that separates us from other lenders,” said Steve Pittler, president of Friendly Finance Corp. “With our dealers actively pursuing these buyers, we anticipate their look-to-book and profits to exceed industry standards.”
