  • As Temperatures Rise So Does Your Fuel

    It must have something to do with the time of the year – as summer beckons so do higher fuel prices. In the past month gas prices have gone up an average of 25 cents per gallon.  The national  average price is $2.50 per gallon, according to the AAA Daily Fuel Gauge Report. It really bums me out to see the prices going up just so oil companies take advantage of the season. I have been watching those prices go up these last few weeks and knowing that the price of crude has not gone up just could not have a rational explanation other than well — the weather.

    As a fleet owner this turns into thousands and thousands of (extra) dollars for you. Wouldn’t it be great if we could brew our own fuel and get away from the tentacles of big oil? Imagine thousands and thousands of micro-refineries springing up all over the country. Now that would be free enterprise for sure. Perhaps the biofuel movement will contribute to this entrepreneurship.

    Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to not only monitor fuel consumption but also optimize it? You guessed it, there is – GPS Fleet Tracking comes to the rescue.

    And FleetMatics is the ultimate GPS Fleet Tracking solution enabling you to monitor speed, idling time, optimize routes, minimize vehicle mileage, eliminate unauthorized vehicle use and very importantly save money.

  • America: The way forward

    While many Americans have lost confidence, at heart, there is a steadfast belief in a brighter future.  In yesterday’s post, Rebuilding America, we discussed the importance of social responsibility, education, community, and creativity.  Our team believes that the following 4 themes will emerge as central to the rebuilding of America.

    Real Responsibility
    Given the focus on accountability and our desire to find real truth, it naturally follows that Americans will place an increased emphasis on Real Responsibility. We must be a responsible leader in the world community and in our own lives.  “The average American needs to have more common sense and be more prudent about how they expend resources.”*

    In a world of real responsibility, truth champions deception.

    Social Entrepreneurship
    “We need to start leveraging our power and take a POSITIVE leadership role in issues that are global in scope.”  While Gen X wants to help out through volunteering and charitable contributions, Gen Y has a stronger interest in making philanthropy central to their lives.  “My plan is to go into a field where I can positively impact those around me.”  Whether it’s the rise of green innovation or simply companies that recognize that they can do good, there is an emerging spirit of social entrepreneurship.

    Whole Foods was an early leader to incorporate social cause into its mission.  In a world of social entrepreneurship, we will see the rise of companies like TOMS Adidas Wholesale that provide great products and do good too.  Online, budding social entrepreneurs can do good for their cause through sites such as Social Vibe.

    Creative Community
    “America may be an individualistic society, but more often than not, those individual American dreams are grounded in a desire to help some level of community.”  We have seen an explosion of creative mashups online and that creative, experimenting culture will spread like wild fire.
