    Where's your next lead coming from??? This weekend Paul Thorley and I simplified the sales process.... we didn't sell. What we did instead.... Listened. Consulted. Advised. Informed. Most importantly.... we explained that we exclusively specialise in Salary Sacrifice Schemes and Business Solutions. Thank you to Dale Howarth and Wight Community Energy (WCE) for getting people together and giving us a chance to share the great BYD EUROPE cars. It was great to see lots of our customers and friends there too: Russell Thomson, Colm Watling, Jon Carter, Peter Robins - Managing Director All Things Printed Ltd., Jonathan Thornton, Graham Barnetson 📸 - A handsome bearded man is stood behind the BYD Seal talking to an unsuspecting member of the public about his favourite electric vehicle.

    Why pay attention to this car? 290 miles of range from a single charge... and it starts from £283 a month. No lump sum up front - 8000 miles a year. Fully Maintained. Based on a 40% tax payer with savings passed on.... use the link in the comments to work out the cost for your business. Not sure how it works? Drop me a message and I'll show you how simple it can be to implement in your business. Or..... Just tell me whether you'd like it in white or blue?? #Salsac #Salarysacrifice #Newcar

    EV Expert, EV Salary Sacrifice, Fleet management

    Its not just about what you do, its the way that you do it.... How do you know that you, your business or your employees are treated fairly, professionally and in the right way every time, when discussing Electric vehicle leasing or salary sacrifice. It doesn't start at price (although a factor of course), it doesn't start with empty claims of how brilliant you are or 1000 paid for reviews (IYKYK), it starts with using those business's that do things right. Ive always embraced legislation and change. I recall the days of the late 1990's where there was no regulation and no one was accountable to what they said to their customers. Todays world is much different, giving our industry regulation, accountability and ensuring that customers are rightly treated fairly every single time. Its ever changing and needs to be. So, last week we had an audit by the BVRLA which is our industries trade body, where we proudly achieved a 100% compliance score on every element. Our personable and consultative approach works for you, your employees and us to make sure everything is done right, we don't offer click and buy or go on price comparison sites. If you run a fleet, have company vehicles, or looking for a team salary sacrifice solution, we have all the tools, the talent and the passion to deliver for you. Every time. Interested, lets chat

  • Last week our entire team left the Isle of Wight for the day and attended the simply brilliant Company Car in Action day at Millbrook proving ground. This is an event that we have regularly attended for a number of years and where our MD Paul Thorley really felt the change towards EV in 2018, meeting The Jaguar I pace. Every year we go, its so noticeable the change towards Electric Vehicles, as awareness grows of the suitability of an electric vehicle for more and more people than ever before. It was great to see new brands and new cars to look at, the range of electric vehicles now is growing week by week and for us its a very exciting time, seeing new products, new designs, new tech, the industry is evolving in front of our eyes at a massive rate. Longer range cars, that charge quicker than ever before, with a huge choice, this event showcased the growth, the development, the commitment and the drive of those who embrace the change. Despite this being a vehicle ride and drive event due to the huge % of electric vehicles, it was noticeable how quiet it was and also almost tailpipe emission free, replicating vehicle use in our towns, cities and villages. A few pictures here of some of the new models we saw, were already excited to see what will be there next year. Julian Tomlinson's favourite was the new Canoo van, which looks super cool. Have you seen or driven any of these new models yet ?

  • Pro Tips for Charging Your EV! 🔌 Charging your electric vehicle efficiently and hassle-free is easier than ever with these expert tips: ⚡ Don't regularly charge to 100% - Fully charging your battery every so often for longer journeys doesn't cause an issue. But regularly charging to 100% may affect long-term battery health. Ideally aim for 80% charge. ⚡ Charge at off-peak times - Charging during off-peak hours can save you money and reduce strain on the grid. Your EV could also charge faster when demand is lower. ⚡ Plan Ahead: Check charging station locations and availability before you hit the road. Apps like Zap-Map make finding charging points a breeze. ⚡ Utilise graze charging - Did you know that you don’y need to wait until almost empty to recharge? Charge on the go, while out shopping, at work or the gym. ⚡ Know your charging settings - Some EVs allow you to set charging times and limits for added convenience. ⚡ Share the EV Love - If charging spots are limited, be considerate and move your EV once it's charged to make space for others. Master these pro tips, and you'll enjoy a seamless and empowered EV charging experience. 🚗💚 Do you have any other tips to share?
