Focus on finance

The 2019 FIT Show proved to be a successful exhibition for Improveasy, the company said.

Members of the team showcased its popular installer finance packages, designed to help installers achieve bigger and better sales. Improveasy caught the attention of visitors with its ‘Buy Now Pay Later’ finance package, which allows installers to offer flexible finance at the point of sale with optional consumer deposits and 12-month payment-free periods.

As the exclusive finance partner for Fensa and its nationwide membership, Improveasy also joined in with the festivities and events at Fensa stand.

Adrian Hicks, senior account manager at Improveasy, said: “Our main focus at this year’s FIT Show was to highlight to visitors that finance is not just for the select few. With our full range of services including ‘Buy Now Pay Later’ and ‘0% APR’, installers of all sizes can offer flexible finance to their customers and meet the changing buying habits of today’s consumers. Judging by the feedback and response we received at FIT, I think we achieved our goal.

“It was great to chat with a cross-section of the industry and really break down the mechanics and dispel the myths surrounding finance. We had some fantastic conversations across both the Improveasy and Fensa stands with new potential partners, and our team are now out on the road meeting with those businesses to discuss how we can help them grow.”

A point Improveasy was keen to stress at The FIT Show was that installers who use its service do not need to become FCA approved. Instead, installers become an Appointed Representative (AR) of Improveasy and can offer finance within 14 days, under the Improveasy banner or using their own branding.

While Improveasy does work with Fensa members, companies that are not currently members can take advantage of a year’s free membership when they sign-up with Improveasy.
