Asset remarketing – especially vehicles – has always been an inherently risky process.
For decades, fleets have taken assets out of service by sending them to auctions or dealers. Then they waited for their cut of the proceeds after their asset finally sells, reducing their return on investment and often leaving them on the hook for lease payments or fees until a sale finalizes and they get paid.
Making matters worse, remarketing assets is not always the easiest process, often draining valuable time, money, and resources. This is a tough proposition at a time when everything about fleet seems hard enough as it is.
But what if there was a better way to sell used assets? One where sellers had absolutely zero risk and transactions took about a week.
Better yet, what if the process was as fast and easy as three simple steps, allowing the seller to get back to more important things faster, after spending less than a few minutes assigning their assets, accepting an offer, and getting paid in one super simple, streamlined process?
Well – at FLD – that’s exactly what we do.
Instead of forcing sellers to accept a cut of whatever they sell their asset for at auction, we give customers an upfront offer on any used asset and then pay them the full price they agree to in a couple of hours.
I mean, how easy is that?
This is an important factor at a time when fleet managers are doing more with less of everything – staff, budget, resources. And battered by rising costs, tariffs and mounting uncertainty. It’s enough to make any fleet manager crazy, putting a premium on products and solutions that save time, money and resources.
At FLD, our goal is to make remarketing as easy as 1 – 2 – 3!
Here’s how it works:
1 – Assign Any Asset in Any Condition and Get an Upfront Offer in Days
Perhaps the biggest reason asset remarketing is so risky is the lack of visibility that comes with it.
After all, when a fleet takes an asset out of service and sends it to a third party remarketer or auction, they are usually hundreds – and sometimes thousands – of miles away with little real time data about the asset they are selling. That can make it a challenge to know what condition it’s in or to accurately assess its true resale value.
But at FLD, we’ve streamlined the intake process to make it easy to assign any vehicle in any condition – anytime. And to get an accurate snapshot of what kind of condition the asset is in so they can best assess the offer we make.
Here’s how easy it is:
- When your fleet is ready to take an asset out of service, simply assign it to FLD using our free OVRView app. Once you do, we’ll have it recovered quickly and assessed by our world class Condition Report Team (CRT). It’s their expertise and ability to accurately assess your vehicle that makes FLD the only independent remarketer that can make an upfront offer on used assets.
Once your asset has been assessed, we’ll upload all the documentation into our OVRView app and provide an offer that’s good for up to 14 days. You’ll even have access to our Condition Report Team’s findings and photographs, so you’ll have the relevant information you need to make an informed decision. If you’re not completely satisfied, we’ll return the asset to wherever you want at our expense, making the transaction completely risk free.- If you prefer, you can also upload photos of your asset to the OVRView app, answer a few quick questions, and receive an offer back in a couple of days.
- Making things even easier, you can manage the entire remarketing process in real time in the OVRView app – where we even store all of the information from every transaction in perpetuity so you can quickly and easily access it any time you want, for as long as you want.
2 – Accept Our Offer and Get Paid the Full Amount You Agree To in Hours
Selling used assets can be a complicated process. One with a lot of moving parts. But the truth is most fleets are pressed for time. As are most fleet managers. They didn’t get into fleet to sell used cars, so the faster they can dispose of used assets, the better.
The problem with traditional remarketing or sending assets to auction is that fleets can often wait weeks – and sometimes months – for an asset to sell and a transaction to settle. And even longer to finally get paid, reducing ROI and often forcing their staff to keep track of the process.
Not with FLD.
Once a customer accepts our no-risk, no-obligation offer that’s it. They’re done.
Within hours, we wire payment for the full sales price agreed to. No waiting. No wondering what an asset will sell for at auction. Once a customer agrees to our offer, they are free to move on to more important things. We even store all of the information from every transaction in the OVRView app. Pictures, paperwork – all neatly organized and at our customer’s fingertips anytime they need it.
And remember, with FLD there’s never any fee or hidden charges.
We can even help customers get title work in order, ensuring a fast, smooth and easy transaction every time.
3 – Accelerate Back to More Important Things Faster
The business world has changed dramatically over the past decade, no one argues that.
But the fleet world – it’s changed even faster. A challenging development for an industry that stayed basically the same for decades leading up to the pandemic.
At FLD, we know fleets are under pressure. And facing challenges that most couldn’t have imagined a few short years ago. That’s why our goal is simple:
