No matter what kind of business you're in, there's always a competitor nipping at your heels, angling to steal your clients or take your place in the pack.  With the current economic climate, trying to maintain your competitive advantage also means investing in the warehouse.  That’s a tough proposition for many companies. 

How do you make this initiative more appealing?  Lease.  

WHY LEASE?
To save capital and to stay on top, that's why.

Leasing can:

·         Preserve capital and improve cash flow

o     You keep more money in your coffers, and your lease payments may actually be lower than those associated with traditional bank financing.  

·         Allow off-balance sheet financing

o     Operating leases can be structured so that they have negligible effects on your overall company balance sheet. Therefore, they can't count against your other lines of credit or overall credit rating.  

·         Fully expense your lease payments

o     Leases can be tailored so that they qualify as business expenses and are fully tax-deductible. Instead of using a depreciation schedule that lets you write off a little each year, you get the tax advantages for the full amount of lease payments. 

·         Stick to fixed-rate payments

o     Unlike bank financing, which is subject to changing interest rates, leasing with EDGE at fixed rates means no surprises for your accounting department.   

Your alternatives to Leasing are:

• Pay cash

• Paying cash depletes capital reserves and means less money for more important transactions like year-end bonuses or profit-sharing for employees or other new business developments.  

• Utilizing bank financing

• Bank financing lets you keep your cash, but Banks may also impose additional requirements or other covenants that tie your financial hands.
