Recent Developments

On November 16th 2007, Mike Garner and Chris Monaghan launched their new venture, Echo Financial Products, LLC. Mike and Chris have been valuable contributors to the growth and success of IMAGE since 2003. However, recent market events have created an opportunity for them to branch out on their own and pursue the expansion of their client and product base. Pursuant to a consulting contract, IMAGE has engaged Echo Financial products, LLC to provide a broad range of support to IMAGE, which will allow it to deliver the same level of service and execution that its clients have come to expect since 1992. A portion of the fee generated on any particular transaction may be paid to Echo Financial Products for service rendered under the consulting contract. IMAGE clients serviced by Mike and Chris may reach them here at IMAGE by telephone or by using their imagepa.com email addresses, or at their new offices by telephone 610-768-7733 or by email at mike@echo-fp.com and chris@echo-fp.com. IMAGE clients dealing directly with Mike and Chris may rely on IMAGE’s commitment to excellence to ensure ongoing, direct involvement and oversight of their transactions.

IMAGE from time to time refers clients or specific transactions directly to Echo Financial Products. Working at IMAGE has always been like being part of a family, but even family members eventually move up and out. This transition will not diminish IMAGE, but only foster the professional careers of Mike and Chris. We wish them all the best.

In addition to the creation of Echo Financial Products, LLC, Mike and Chris have purchased the assets and intellectual property of Enhanced Financial Solutions, Inc.
