VFD Funding Group and VFD-Fire Group Further Automates, Simplifies and Streamlines Processes.

Because of the growth of both companies, the VFD-Funding Group and the VFD-Fire Group are pleased to announce the successful further automation and streamlining the processes of obtaining financing and to locate reliable new and used fire trucks.

"We have found it necessary to to simplify our forms and processes, along with closing all gaps which reduce the level of customer service we require of ourselves and so many have come to expect", says Will Griffin, the owner of both companies.

During the years of successful business and rapid growth, many times the processes have been stalled or delayed, because of difficulties contacting owners of used trucks, the total lack of cooperation by used fire truck dealers and purported brokers, confirmation that manufacturers of new apparatus were providing excellent and prompt customer service, and strategic financing/banking relationships failing to live up to their pledges of rates and service. Often these financing sources and purported used fire truck brokers charged fees higher than those by the VFD-Funding Group and VFD-Fire Group, who actually did all of the work and more of it attempting to service the customers. This was certainly true for used apparatus and the financing of apparatus costing less than $50,000.

To automate and simplify this process and reducing inefficiencies and diminishments of customer service by other parties, most of the initial forms and process are completed on-line, with some of the other subsequent documents made available to the customer immediately, so that both VFD-Funding Group and VFD-Fire Group can accumulate more of the vital information at the start of the processes. This will enable VFD-Fire to locate and close the sale of fire trucks, enable financing to be completed in a shorter period of time, and enable the staffs of both companies to process even more sales and financing for their customers.

"It took us a while to learn who was a reliable and reasonable funding source and who were the honest, reasonable and professional dealers/brokers selling new and used apparatus. We now can spare and save our customers and ourselves a lot of time, grief, frustrations, efforts and money; by only dealing with those, who are reliable and professional, while using our new simplified processes and expanded resources. There are some financing/banking sources and some dealers/brokers we've seen, who have shown us how we owe it to our fellow firefighters to steer them toward the more professional and honest companies" explains Griffin.

The new innovations are currently in place at http://VFD-Funding.com and at the http://New-Firetrucks.com and http://Used-FireTrucks.com web sites in the VFD-Fire Group. All of the web sites owned by Will Griffin Fire will adopt the new processes and features during the course of the coming months. The complete transition for all 50 web sites owned by Will Griffin Fire will be completed by the end of 2007.
