Ready for the Fall
Yes, I know it’s still summer, but fall is just around the corner. And I must admit it’s a season that I love: the crispness, the leaves changing color and the amazing industry conferences.
The AFLA corporate fleet conference in San Antonio is just over two weeks away and the FMW team will be there in full force - so we hope to see you there. Have you registered yet? If not, you can do so HERE.
A bit later in the fall Dave Bean will represent FMW at the NETS fleet safety conference in Atlanta (October 8-11); then from November 6-8 I will be attending the Fleet Forward conference in San Diego. We consider all three of these conferences quite valuable for both learning and networking. You can register for NETS HERE and for Fleet Forward HERE.
