I heard about the this workshop through a friend of mine who owns a fleet limos. I own a transportation business for the elders, and I have been looking into conferences, guilds and workshops to join to network, exchange ideas, and be more successful in my business. I just looked over your itinerary for this workshop and I am very interested in it. I just have a few questions. One of my main concerns with my business, as well as any fleet owner, is my fuel costs. How in detail do you go into about saving on fuel costs? Do you touch on business fuel cards at all? How about new eco-friendly fleet vehicles? When can I sign up for this upcoming years workshop. I read through your blogs material and I benefited from the information I saw and I just want to learn more. Thank you again for posting the information that is viewable here. Hope to see you at the next workshop.
