A note on dealership rental
For many equipment dealerships, rental often starts and remains a secondary part of their business. Without the proper attention, these rental divisions often stay average at best, bringing in supplemental, secondary revenue for the business. In our eyes this is a huge missed opportunity.
Equipment rental is an industry that continues to grow. High costs and interest rates around parts and equipment are driving many to rent rather than buy the equipment that they need. The rental industry is expected to grow to $63.4B by 2026.
At Wynne, we highly encourage dealerships to consider splitting their rental division into a separate company. This allows for specialized focus across the board on that business model, allowing it to run at 100% rather than awkwardly fitting as an afterthought next to the dealership model.
For dedicated rental operations, you need a dedicated rental software. RentalMan is that software.
