Have your sales force offer lease
options on every sales call.

commissions.
3. Closes the sale faster (one stop shopping).
4. Pre-qualifies your customer.

• Do not feel knowledgeable enough
• Afraid of the interest rate question
• Feel leasing is only for bad credits
• Concerned it will postpone/delay the sale
• No incentive to offer it
• Employer’s do not promote leasing
5. Pre-qualifying questions to ask
How long have you owned your business?
Are you the sole owner of the business?
Have you leased any equipment before?
Is there anything the lease company should know
prior to pulling your credit?
On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the best,
how would you rate your credit ?
What do you know about equipment leasing ?
6. Closes the Sale Faster
• One Stop Shopping

7. Cost Justification

The Process of the
Equipment Lease Cycle
Step 1
You select the equipment from the equipment dealer of your choice.
Step 2
Submit an equipment lease application by fax, e-mail, or online. If the dollar amount of the lease requires financial information, we
will advise you of what is needed.
Step 3
Accord Leasing reviews the credit information and/or financial information. Principals credit history; banks and trade references,
the equipment and the equipment dealer are also reviewed.
Step 4
When the lease is approved, Accord Leasing will notify the business owner and the equipment dealer of the terms and conditions
of the approval. The average decision time for an application only lease is 24 hours. The variance comes from the response time
of the bank and trade information of the business owner. If financial information is required the average decision time is two to
three days.
Step 5
The equipment dealer will provide Accord Leasing with an invoice or an order detailing the description of the equipment and the
exact cost and sales tax if applicable. After we receive this information, we will generate the lease documents and overnight or
email them to the business owner.
Step 6
When Accord Leasing receives the signed documents from the business owner with the proper initial payments and/or security
deposit, we will issue a purchase order to the equipment dealer for delivery of the equipment.
Step 7
After the equipment is delivered and installed the business owner will be contacted by phone and asked to verbally verify the
delivery and acceptance of the equipment. We will review the lease terms, and authorize payment to the equipment dealer. Once
all terms and conditions of the approval are met, the equipment dealer will receive a check via overnight delivery.

Accord for nearly six years and has found the
company to be responsive to both HODCO’s and our
customers needs. In addition they have maintained
extraordinary contact with us through the disbursement
process, the most recent of which was within 24 hours
of invoicing”
HODCO Food Systems
Ronald G Stryker, President
“Dealing with Accord makes us feel fortunate
because we are dealing with a company in which
customer service is their main priority and not only
that, but we do receive one on one customer
service. We could not get over the fact that after
equipment has been installed, we would receive
funding immediately.”

Yaskary Herrera Sales Administrator
“Just a note to thank you for providing lease
financing for my customers. Since working
with you, I have experienced a higher
percentage of approvals without increasing
the payments for my customers”

Gary Bertram
“ I highly recommend Accord and
would be happy to accept any
correspondence, written or by
phone, to answer any questions you
may have regarding them”

Albert J Toumazos,
Owner
“Your resourcefulness in finding ways to
obtain lease-financing for our customers
has allowed us to place machines in their
businesses which otherwise might not
have been possible. My time, and that of
the other staff at ABM, is more
productive if we can concentrate on
SELLING and not have to worry about
obtaining lease financing for the sales we
have already made. Once you get the
application we aren’t bothered about
answering time consuming questions or
gathering financial information”
Advanced Brewing Machines
John Graham VP
“In the time we have been dealing with Accord
the benefits we have found are: they are very
thorough in getting the required information,
they are very detailed oriented, and Accord
handles all of the contact with the customers.
I myself like this because it frees me to do my
business- Sell”

“In the past, I have dealt with other lease companies who
have cost me sales because of not knowing my business or
not dealing with problems properly. Accord always pays me
promptly when the deal is complete. Accord has taken the
extra step in satisfying me, my customer and my business”
