Commercial Emphasis

Nick Walker • Sep 06, 2023

Why being commercial only matters

Are you familiar with the saying, "Jack of all trades; master of none"? At Great Lakes Asset Solutions, our focus is exclusively on commercial applications, including heavy equipment, trucks, trailers, business equipment, and more. This approach allows us to embrace both aspects of this statement. We excel as the "jack of all trades" within the commercial sector, but we are also true masters of commercial repossessions. The only exceptions are trains, planes, and boats.


So, why is this emphasis important?


Firstly, it boils down to compliance. We engage only with fully compliant agents. This means they maintain up-to-date liability and insurance coverage and possess active licenses. Our systems are designed to alert us before a license expires, ensuring ongoing compliance.


Additionally, this specialized focus provides our account managers and repo agents with invaluable experience in dealing with business owners. This expertise allows us to apply our knowledge effectively. Communicating with consumers is quite different from engaging with business owners.


Lastly, specialization prevents us from spreading ourselves too thin. If we were involved in other types of repossessions or collections, it would divert our attention from what we excel at and are passionate about.


Additonal Services We Offer:


1. Door Knocking: We deliver demand or warning letters directly to borrowers on behalf of financing companies.


2. Auto Dialer: We provide an automated dialer system that streamlines your collection efforts. Simply provide us with a CSV file of necessary information, and we will handle the rest. You only pay for successful connections. All successful connections get connected directly to YOUR agents.


3. Transport: We negotiate the best transportation rates to move collateral units between agent yards and your desired locations, whether it's 2 miles away or 5,000 miles.


4. Voluntary Surrender: If borrowers wish to return their collateral voluntarily after speaking with you, we act as intermediaries to facilitate the return process.


5. Asset Picture Reports: What sets us apart is our provision of picture reports for the collateral we handle. This ensures that you receive your units in the same condition as we received them.


If you have any questions about our services, please don't hesitate to contact us at (716) 201-3070. We are here to assist you with your commercial asset needs.
