When we talk about the solutions we offer and how they can effectively improve businesses that depend on driving, we often encounter people who claim to be “too busy” to look into it at the present time:
"You know, we are going into our busiest time of the year, so I think we’ll have to look into making changes later."
“My team is extremely busy and there isn’t time to learn something new.”
“I know there is surely a better way to organize our job, but now we are under time constraints and cannot simply invert the hours needed to shift to a new process.”.-
These are just some of the examples of the conversations we exchange every day with people who struggle to streamline their fleet, or really need to take a closer look into costs/recurring issues with their vehicles.
Some of them are so used to managing their workload and pending tasks with the aid of paperwork, they don’t fully appreciate how many facets of their job can be optimised with the help of the right tools. Others grasp the potential of having all the right data at their fingertips and the volume of work it can save, but still find themselves trapped into mistakenly assuming that they don’t even have the time to explore the solutions nor accept a helping hand to take the pressure off.
It is true in both of these cases, that not looking into a solution for lack of time will increase the missed opportunities of business. There are quite a number of factors that can impact on whether or not you miss growth opportunities (by not prioritizing time to research solutions). If you are actively looking for a solution as to how to streamline your fleet, you are probably experiencing
• long waiting times for customers
• poor optimization of routes, assets, random scheduling, deficient planning
• lack of visibility into all the fleet operations
• an elaborate back-office with duplicated information or information that often gets lost
• high customer churn rate
• high global fleet costs
• low control over safety
And be mindful that each day that you do not make changes, or look into possible solutions, is costing you money and putting you at a competitive disadvantage. So, why don’t you give the “too busy” habit a rest and improve your business now? You will reduce costs, get customer retention, greater employee satisfaction and lead a safe, responsible company.
