Forklift rental is a logistical challenge when they’re needed for additional time or on longer projects, so forecasting and stock management is essential.
For founder Terry Daniels and son, Director, Joe Daniels, invoicing on the old software was slow and office-based, Joe remembers, "it was on one computer… and you have to manually back it up every day."
Five years ago, the team switched to Sage Business Cloud Accounting giving them access from anywhere and Copilot assistance for invoice reminders. The savings were immediate.
They gained back 5 days a month, invoicing now only taking a few hours. The BLC team could re-focus on customer relationships, making sure its personal touch was carried through to plans of expansion.
BLC now operates with full financial confidence, maintaining its trusted, local reputation.
Terry is proud that the recent growth has meant considering a bigger site, "we thought we'd be able to rent half of it off because we wouldn't need it all. But now it's too small."
With Sage Business Cloud Accounting, BLC Forklifts can continue to grow for the foreseeable future.
