The fleets that are about to need funding.

Every vehicle added to a fleet is paid for somehow, and the decision about how is made in the weeks between the application and the order being placed. A broker who arrives after the dealer has arranged it is too late, and a lead bought from a list has usually been called by five brokers already.

What an asset finance broker learns before the call.

A haulier adding vehicles has a funding decision to make before the order goes in. The card gives the size of the ticket from the licence, any lender registered against it from the charges on record and the credit picture from the accounts, while nobody has yet asked for a quote.

The size of the market first, without names: Hauliers expanding in the UK, counted weekly on CapexRadar, the engine behind Stanfell.

  1. Whether a lender is already registered against the company, and which one. Hire purchase and leases seldom show there, so it is a question to ask, not an answer.
  2. The size of the increase, so you know the ticket before you pick up the phone.
  3. The filing history and the shape of the last accounts, so credit is a conversation rather than a surprise.

Asset finance leads: your questions.

How is this different from buying asset finance leads?
A bought lead is somebody who filled in a form, and the same form usually goes to several brokers. A card is a company that has applied to grow and has not asked anyone yet. You are the one who calls first, and you know the ticket before you do.
Do you show which lender the company uses today?
Where a charge is registered against the company, the card says so and names the chargeholder. No charge is often the better lead: there is nobody to displace.
Is it only lorries?
It is anything that needs an operator's licence to run, which in practice means goods vehicles over 3.5 tonnes and their trailers. Vans below that line are not on it.
