Equipment Leasing and Equipment & Asset Finance Leasing Specialists.
In this present financial situation, the equipment leasing industry has changed. The change is not for the better, as all of the main equipment leasing companies have simply picked up the pitch as well as the goal posts, and have moved them twenty five miles down the road.
This has left a huge void in the equipment leasing market, however, when faced with challanges, you have to rise and overcome these obstacles. As shown below in the British Chambers of Commerce Monthly Business Survey for November 2009.
" 33% of companies reported that accessing finance had been more difficult over the last three months. This compares with the same question asked in June, when 20% of businesses believed access to finance had worsened"
In the light of the report above, Oak Leasing is delighted to say that over the last three months, over 85 new suppliers have turned to us to arrange equipment leasing for their customers. Whilst other funding sources have indeed cut back on volumes, we are expanding our new business to help fill the vacuum which has been left in the equipment leasing market.
A company based in North London approached Oak Leasing earlier this month, and we have placed £146,000 worth of his business,... that had been rejected by his normal panel of funders and brokers. If we can do that for them, the question you have to ask yourselves, what can Oak Leasing do for us ?
With more businesses constricted by the terms and conditions imposed by their banks, they are looking to sources of alternative finance. Oak Leasing has sought to help fill this financing gap for SMEs,and in fact all types of business which have been negatively affected by the reduced liquidity available for equipment leasing market. In lay-mans terms, this simply means that the amount of money available to leasing companies to lend has been effectively cut by up to 50% accross the board. This has resulted in harder underwriting criteria and more rejections of your proposals for suppliers like you.
The key for the next six months for equipment suppliers is really selling leasing in a tougher economy.The equipment leasing world is changing quite rapidly, as most of the equipment suppliers have discovered over the last few months. Firstly the credit underwriting has moved, and secondly the credit of many customers has and is deteriorating.
So what is the solution? Quite simply, Oak Leasing have funders that will accept many deals that other leasing companies simply reject out of hand. Even if we accept only one extra equipment leasing deal a month, that gives you one extra deals profit, and if you multiply that by twelve months,that is something you can feel happy about.
"Really impressed with the service, you have been excellent, would not hesitate to refer you to other businesses. I am going to be opening another centre within the next 6 months and will definitely contact you"
Steve Ives, owner of Play Sport.
Working smarter and focusing on our suppliers' needs is what Oak Leasing is now actively concentrating on. By helping our equipment suppliers in climbing the search engine rankings by using SEO or Search Engine Optimisation. Many  people view the website as just an online brochure. If that is the case, would you put a stall with your brochures on it, six or seven streets away from the high street or shopping centre? No one would, but if you take it that the first page of a search engine is the high street, and every page thereafter is one more street away, you can see how crucial it is to be placed on the first page.
One simply fact 46% of customers only look at the first page, and a further 34% look at the second page. After that, forget about it. Your website is your window to your customers. One out of every two companies have made an order through a website in the last two months.
The potential is simply vast and cannot be ignored.
"Knowing that Oak Leasing understood SEO optimisation, and having viewed their own success on the web, we realised that web leads could replace the need for a sales person. Outstanding results which is already paying for itself in multiples.
I could not recommend Oak Leasing highly enough".
Charles Towers-Clark M/D Podsystem
