CSI Fleet Card Reduces Company Fuel Costs as Gas Prices Continue to Rise
Defy rising fuel prices with the CSI Universal Fleet Fuel Card. From discounts at the pump to real-time online reporting and card controls, the CSI Universal Fleet Fuel Card offers practical and direct solutions and cost savings.
Bonita Springs, FL (PRWEB) April 21, 2008 -- Keith Stone likes a good adage as well as the next guy. But when Benjamin Franklin commented about the only sureties being death and taxes, little did he suspect the relentless climb of rising fuel prices two hundred years later. That is exactly what businesses across the country and around the world face. Fortunately, there are practical and direct solutions to counter the billowing prices, specifically, the CSI Universal Fleet Fuel Card.
Stone, President and CEO of CSI Enterprises, Inc., explained how effective the CSI Universal Fleet Fuel Card is when it comes to saving hard-earned money. "At CSI, we have taken a common product, the credit card, and made it anything but common. Our fleet card is universally accepted at all major and independent gas stations nationally, and we directly affect the price of fuel by offering discounts at tens of thousands stations."
But many fleet business owners need more than negotiated discounts to effectively reduce costs. Sandy Sandberg has owned a wholesale products delivery company in California for two decades. Over the years, Sandberg has had as many as a dozen vehicles on the road. He has learned he must look for every advantage he can find.
"As a business owner, I deal with all of my expenses going up across the board, from rent to insurance to you name it. But most of that spending is done month-by-month. Fuel, on the other hand, is one of the main expenses we are faced with on a daily basis," said Sandberg. "Not a day goes by that we aren't buying fuel. Therefore, we are always trying to find the best deals, as well as control any unnecessary spending."
Stone hears and understands these needs and that is why the CSI Universal Fleet Fuel Card benefits extend far beyond the pump. "In today's economy, it has become critical to watch every cent spent. When Benjamin Franklin said, 'a penny saved is a penny earned,' he wasn't living in 2008. In today's business environment, from what the government takes, to other operating costs including insurance, salaries, equipment, a penny saved is equivalent to at least two, if not three or four, pennies earned."
Cardholders of the CSI Universal Fleet Fuel Card, from the smallest of businesses to the largest, all receive every benefit CSI has to offer, such as Smart Buy, a nationally updated database reporting fuel prices at filling stations in every city. Other benefits include real-time online reporting, allowing managers to track and analyze the spending of every card and driver as well as control the limits and types of spending, even changing restrictions to allow for non-fuel purchases such as maintenance.
"It is our mission," said Stone, "to help business owners such as Sandy succeed. Rising fuel costs hamstring businesses from running at peak performance. I hear the stories every day, from having to reduce staff, to not taking on different jobs, to simply saying 'enough' and closing the door. What we have helps businesses to not only compete, but excel in their given field. What we have is a very real solution that directly affects the bottom line."
