Carmmunity adds support for Broker News Awards
Brilliant! More support for the Broker News Awards as we start the countdown to the event at the end of this month. My thanks to Carmmunity for its welcome sponsorship as we also reveal the award entrants for the first time. I think we’re going to have a really special event. Good luck to the entrants.
Leasing broker market continues to shape shift
I’m continually impressed at how leasing brokers continually reposition themselves to stay ahead in a constantly evolving landscape. The lcv group has now added TR Fleet and fleet management to its roster, while Fleet Alliance has formed a potential leasing powerhouse with its ScottishPower partnership. Who’s next to move?
