In Call to Action: The Pandemic-Driven Sales-Support Marketing Audit, marketing guru Ed Pierce makes a powerful case for a return to strategic planning in the wake of slashed budgets.

We are enjoying the AFLA NextGen 2020 Virtual Corporate Fleet Conference and are delighted to congratulate Yogi Shivdasani, VP North America Supply Chain at LKQ Corporation, honored with AFLA’s 2020 Fleet Executive of the Year Award, and Lee Pierce, Director of Fleet at Nutrien AG Solutions, who was named Fleet Manager of the Year!
FMW thanks Mike Pitcher for his video reminding us that October is Distracted Driving Awareness Month! Did you know that nine people a day die from distracted driving and 1,000 are injured? One is too many.
Stay safe!
