My Experience

Dynamic and inspiring, high-performance professional with 15 years combined sales, marketing and management experience with documented ability to implement sales strategies to support business and financial objectives. Exceptional communicator with demonstrated success in building winning relationships within organizations, while sustaining meaningful rewarding alliances with external clients. Continuously recognized as a natural leader with compelling problem-solving aptitude and strong negotiating confidence.



INTEGRITY! The first word that comes to mind when thinking of Shawn Galliers. A man who is a true professional in person and in practice. I've had the privilege of meeting some of his customers and having them tell me the same thing that I learned myself--a high-energy, intelligent and, above all,--forthright individual. Shawn's broad-based experience in sales, marketing and financial services has enabled him to succeed in today's complex business environment. His varied interests and continued study of business subjects (all the latest biz books, Internet studies--social networks etc.) he's really on top of his game! This first-ever, online recommendation follows three years of a working relationship where I witnessed Shawn's interaction with others. I highly recommend this capable executive.

In 2008 I was working with a restaurant client that needed capital for an expansion. After being declined by nearly 20 banks, funds, trusts and hard-money sources I contacted Shawn with Advance Restaurant Finance. He was able to secure an approval in 4 days and funding in 6. This was a highly complicated loan with a multi-tiered corporate structure, operating and holding companies and several partners. Shawn was able to grasp the complexities of the deal and, more importantly, delivered on his promise to my client and myself. I HIGHLY recommend Shawn's services to any restaurateur or affiliate.
