The Ground Transportation Industry is often viewed as male-dominated and highly competitive. Yet, over the years, brilliant, passionate, and successful women-operators have paved the way for other women in this industry. These significant breakthroughs and successes were not easy to overcome, but these women were able to go above and beyond and surpass every obstacle that they encountered along the way.

During this Women\’s History Month, Limo Anywhere would like to highlight and honor some of the outstanding women within our network.

Athena Grimm, Owner & COO of BAC Transportation

\"\"

Athena Grimm, Owner & COO of BAC Transportation, is a woman that has always hustled by nature and has never let stereotypes define her or create obstacles for her. With pure ambition and determination, Athena has done it all, from being the only female building maintenance technician, a small business owner, to the Owner & COO of BAC Transportation.

In the year 1999, at the age of 23 years old, Athena got her first exposure to passenger transportation as she found herself driving a six-passenger limousine to Alaska. Fast forward to 2005, Athena had married her husband Charlie and decided to join him in his business venture at BAC Limousine and Bus Services. Athena had to adapt quickly and take charge as she had to step into full-time leadership as the new Operations Manager.

One of Athena\’s lessons in business is \”Always be learning with an open mind.\” When Athena was looking to grow her business and search for a cloud-based system, she tried to learn as much as possible.  As she had attended an NLA tradeshow, she got the chance to know more about Limo Anywhere, and she decided to take a chance with our solution. It has now been nine years later, and Athena mentions she has never questioned her decision!

Some advice Athena offers to all the women out there who aspire to be in leadership is to be mindful of their self-talk:

\”You are your greatest asset and adversary. Fight against the Automatic Negative Thoughts (ANT\’s) and keep words like \”can\’t\” and \”impossible\” out of your vocabulary.\” – Athena Grimm

Alina Wade, Managing Partner, B&W Limo

\"\"

Alina Wade,  Managing Partner of B&W Limo, is one of Limo Anywhere\’s most notable operators. Her professional background in the hospitality industry has helped her excel in the Ground Transportation Industry. Her ability to adapt and grow is impressive, and it is the primary reason why her business continues to shine.

As Alina had noticed that her city of Los Angeles needed better transportation service, seeing the necessity and market opportunity, she took a risk that would change her life forever. The company was founded in 2007, and almost six years after she decided to fully join forces with her husband and brother to take the company to the next level. With her expertise and relationships that she has built over the years in the hospitality industry, Alina was able to morph her business into something new and successful.

Alina mentions that Limo Anywhere helped her company maximize its profits, with our solution, they were able to achieve instant global outreach by expanding and allowing them to serve their clients around the world.

One piece of advice that Alina offers to all women looking to rise into a similar position as her is that they all educate, learn, invest in themselves, and learn from the best in the industry. Also, to ask questions, ask many questions and if someone does something well, ask how they do it. Another vital message Alina shared is that one must always:

\”Stay ahead of your game, see the big picture and think 3-5 years ahead\” – Alina Wade

Amy Yan, General Manager, Amy Express Shanghai, and Beijing Airport Chauffeured Service Ltd

\"\"

Amy Yan, General Manager of Amy Express Shanghai and Beijing Airport Chauffeured Service Ltd, is another female operator that has been able to liberate herself from gender roles and stereotypes. Amy founded her own company in 2008 and has been thriving ever since.

To excel in this industry, you must be adaptable and not afraid of competition and challenges. In 2013, Amy Express had started using Limo Anywhere. Our solution has been able to enhance Amy Express\’ work efficiency with all its latest features and technology. Amy mentions that being exposed to new technology has helped her achieve the right work-life balance, as she can work from home effectively and efficiently.

As Amy mentions the importance of an excellent work-life balance, she says that all women should plan an \”After-kid\” career sooner rather than later.

\”One day, your kids will grow up and leave to live their own lives; Amy Express will stay with me.\” – Amy Yan

This is a reminder that women should not feel tied down to gender roles; and that they can be both a mother and a business owner at the same time. Amy believes that we are all ordinary people and can\’t do everything by ourselves, so we must prioritize finding the right partners to work together and achieve our goals one step at a time. She says, be patient but never give up! Some drugs have psychoactive properties and, because of that, are sometimes abused that is, taken by someone other than the patient for whom they are prescribed. Even if you have used an internet drugstore before, it is always important to learn more about the matter. the content Pharmacies stock everything from the hair products to first aid kits, natural minerals, supplements, multivitamins, sports nutrition products, and travel toiletries and everything families need to clean for children. A stock is virtually wide.

 

Women still represent the minority of business owners in our industry, so we must support them and celebrate their success. Happy Women\’s History Month from Limo Anywhere!

This past week, the President of Limo Anywhere, Sean Arena and the Founder/ CEO of Limo University Bill Faeth held a live interview for all their customers and social media followers. The main talking point of the interview was about the first-ever Limo Anywhere User Conference Academy.

Sean was able to discuss the ins and outs of how Academy came to be and why it is essential for Limo Anywhere Customers to attend the event.

Over the past few years, Limo Anywhere has been purely focused on revamping and producing a greater product velocity for its customers. With the right team and the right technology, the company\’s growth in the last 15 years has scaled immensely from 100 operators to over 5000 in 2019. One of Limo Anywhere\’s latest features includes their new Reporting and Analytics Tool, which you can learn more about in this article.

With many new upgrades and new features, Limo Anywhere started noticing significant improvements but also some developing issues.  As the Limo Anywhere team performed thorough research on their customers, they noticed that many of them do not use all the Limo Anywhere features and services to its full potential and functionality.  Many are only using up to 30-40% of the features and services Limo Anywhere has to offer.

Although customers were requesting training sessions and webinars, the Limo Anywhere team knew this would not solve their problem permanently.  After several brainstorming sessions, the Limo Anywhere team knew what they needed to do to help their customers and fulfill their requests. They announced their first-ever user conference Limo Anywhere Academy.

Limo Anywhere Academy\’s mission is to change the game for their customers and help them increase their business potential to its maximum. They will be learning the ins and outs of the livery industry from leading operators and professionals. Limo Anywhere customers will not want to miss out on this event, as they get a chance to experience exclusive education and networking events around Limo Anywhere features and services, all the latest industry tech, trends, issues & more.

Limo Anywhere Academy will be held on September 10-12th in the Beautiful city of Fort Worth, Texas, to learn more about it and to register, click here!

Dallas, TX—June 18, 2019—Limo Anywhere, the ground transportation industry’s most widely-used software solutions provider, is excited to be hosting its inaugural Users Conference in Ft. Worth, Texas, from September 10-12, 2019. The goal of the conference is to empower Limo Anywhere customers to use the software to its fullest extent as they grow their businesses. Sean Arena, president of Limo Anywhere, explained the value of the conference:

With a software as comprehensive as Limo Anywhere, we frequently find many new and existing features are not utilized by our customers, which results in leaving revenue (or savings) on the table. With that in mind, we have established this exclusive opportunity for Limo Anywhere customers to dive into every facet of the platform, ensuring they unlock the full potential of the technology that helps them run their business every day.

Limo Anywhere has long been dedicated to providing multiple training opportunities for its clients, such as videos, blog posts, articles, and trade show demonstrations. In response to client requests for more advanced and immersive training, Limo Anywhere explored the idea of a user conference, a common offering of many software companies, which would provide education at a much more affordable rate than dedicated on-site training. A survey of its nearly 5,000 customers revealed widespread demand for the conference, which Limo Anywhere aptly named Limo Anywhere Academy.

Attendees will participate in a dozen sessions taught by Limo Anywhere and LMC Group training experts. They will go home with concrete learnings and steps they can immediately implement, such as hands-on training on advanced rate setup, which will help to maximize their profit margins. They will also have the chance to learn how to turn their website into a reservations machine, giving them an advantage over their competition by streamlining their businesses with Limo Anywhere’s booking, scheduling, dispatch, and reservation management system.

In addition to these benefits, Limo Anywhere has just announced that Scott Solombrino, former president and CEO of Dav El | BostonCoach and current Executive Director and COO of GBTA, will be the keynote speaker at Limo Anywhere Academy. Solombrino is a legend, having spent more than 40 years in the industry as he developed the largest privately-owned ground transportation network in the world, with a fleet of 25,000 in 550 worldwide markets. With his vision and insight, Solombrino’s remarks will be invaluable to the operators in attendance. Solombrino shared his personal perspective on events like Limo Anywhere Academy:

The industry events I attended during my years in the chauffeured car world were invaluable. The education, networking opportunities, and inspiration paid real dividends in my business. I’m excited to be a part of the Limo Anywhere Academy, which I know will enable Limo Anywhere’s clients to use their software to its fullest potential.

Registration is currently open for Limo Anywhere Academy, with Early Bird Pricing set to expire June 30th. To sign up, please visit www.LimoAnywhereAcademy.com

Editor’s Note: Client Spotlight is a recurring feature on our blog. In it, you will meet fellow operators, learn about their business, and gain valuable insights into using Limo Anywhere to its fullest capacity.

In early 2011, Shawn Dolani was a student at the University of North Texas who was determined to start a business without any loans or investors. He owned a classic black Lincoln Town Car limo and  spent his weekends driving the one stretch limo he had. Within a short amount of time, Prime Limo expanded into Prime Limo & Car Service with the addition of luxury sedans, SUVs, sprinters, transits, mini buses, and mini coaches.

Dolani has put all his efforts into growing the business with the assistance of a larger fleet, an array of chauffeurs, and a reservation/dispatch team. He wanted to run an honest, service-oriented company that provided the best possible service with a newer fleet, friendly reservation specialists, and professional chauffeurs. No expense was spared, no corners were cut. It was simple: great service = happy returning customers.

Today, Prime Limo & Car Service is ranked as one of the top limo and car service companies in Dallas, with forty vehicles, several full-time office staff, and plentiful chauffeurs. In seven short years, Prime Limo has built a great reputation in the community, serving thousands of customers all over the Dallas/Fort Worth area and across the nation.

Prime Limo and Limo Anywhere

When Dolani first started, he entered everything in an Excel spreadsheet. A Limo Anywhere salesperson contacted him, and convinced Dolani that LA would change the way he operated in the best way possible.  Since Day 1, not a single day has gone by that he hasn’t used the software. Dolani loves how LA is continually growing and progressing; he says it “blows his mind” how much LA has updated and changed since his starting days.

Using Limo Anywhere

Prime Limo’s staff members use Limo Anywhere’s software to its fullest capacity. Scheduled SMS and emails are used constantly. Dispatchers love that the dispatch screen tells them everything they need to know about the schedule all on one page- one glance, and it’s easily identifiable which chauffeur is driving which car, or which trip needs attention due to color-coordinated real time status updates. Dolani also appreciates the robust reporting capabilities LA offers.

Dolani mentions that Limo Anywhere makes working with affiliates simple and uncomplicated. Prime has developed five affiliate emails that are automated with a picture of the chauffeur, the chauffeur’s name, vehicle, license plate, and time stamps. 80% of Prime’s affiliates are on LA, so they can see each other’s check-ins. Automation helps with corporate clients as well-one of Prime’s corporate clients prefers to receive texts when clients get in the car, and LA automates this.

Donali says that his favorite part of Limo Anywhere is its affiliate network LANet. He explains that LA “makes it so easy and reduces or eliminates mistakes that can happen. When we’re sending info to a non-LA user, we have to send a trip sheet; they have to enter it in, then Prime Limo has to double check, and there are almost always errors.”

LA Hacks

Dolani recommends that Limo Anywhere users go through the training segments online. “Once you learn it, you will love it. You can customize a lot of things.” He notes that many users don’t know the full range of LA’s capabilities—it has all the resources users need.

Thank you, Shawn and Prime Limo & Car Service! We are honored to be part of your journey.

Editor’s Note: Client Spotlight is a recurring feature on our blog. In it, you will meet fellow operators, learn about their business, and gain valuable insights into using Limo Anywhere to its fullest capacity.

Background

Crown Limousine L.A. has been providing ground transportation services to Los Angeles, Orange, and Ventura Counties since 1994. They pride themselves on offering quality vehicles at an affordable price. Crown may not be the least expensive operator, but they provide an excellent experience to every customer.

David Navon opened Crown Limousine in 1994 after some time spent selling high-risk auto insurance. He had recently gotten engaged, and while his future wife was making most of the arrangements, she asked him to handle the limo. Instead of making a reservation, David purchased a limousine for his wedding. After the wedding, he started driving the limousine in his spare time as a second job, and when the insurance industry began to struggle, he decided to work his limo business full time. He started Crown with his wedding limo and one sedan. David experienced strong growth and developed a first-rate reputation, earning an A+ rating from the BBB and 5 stars with Yelp.

Crown prioritizes quality over quantity. The company has sedans to charters and everything in between. Their full fleet can be viewed HERE. Crown also has tight relations with local affiliates and has steady access to many vehicles not listed on their fleet page.

Los Angeles may be famous for its terrible traffic, but Crown is able to cover all of L.A. county and doesn’t mind going further. With two offices—one in L.A. and another in Camarillo—they are able service a wide range of locations.

Crown Limousine and Limo Anywhere

David says Crown has been a Limo Anywhere customer for about five years. Reservations and dispatch rely on it heavily. In fact, before LA, they were using paper trip slips on a cork board! The transition to an online system was smooth. With Crown’s CAO Khanittha leading the way, she was able to manually set up the entire Limo Anywhere system! The only “issue” was Crown’s COO, Marc, who was very resistant to this change and was still using their paper system. Recognizing this, David and the team waited until Marc was on vacation before going completely paperless. Upon Marc’s return, there was some push-back – but we’re happy to report that Marc has since fully mastered and embraced Limo Anywhere and wouldn’t want it any other way.

Limo Anywhere also allows Crown to remain in control. According to David, one of the best things about LA is its versatility. He has an office set up in his house, and with Limo Anywhere, he can fully work from home. He can access the software from a tablet, phone, or computer. David loves LA, especially its checks and balances.

As a word of advice, David suggests encouraging staff to embrace the change if your company is switching or considering a switch to Limo Anywhere. He says, “The change is so positive and saves so much time. Efficiency is the key to this industry.”

Why Crown?

  1. Their reputation is in the top three of all of Los Angeles livery companies on online review sites. They take pride in what they do.
  2. Crown offers personalized service—they are not tiny, but they are not huge.
  3. They take complaints seriously. Negativity spreads faster and further, so Crown wants their best foot forward always, whether they are representing their own brand or that of their affiliates.

Thank you, David and Crown Limousine LA! We are honored to be part of your journey.

Brian Sheely—Epic Limo, Inc.

Ever wonder how some companies are able to demonstrate tremendous growth in a short period of time? For Epic Limo of Indiana, one of the major factors was Limo Anywhere. We talked with Epic’s Affiliate Manager, Joshua Jipping, to get the scoop on how Limo Anywhere has impacted their growth.

Background

Brian Sheely founded Epic Limo Inc in 2011 because he saw a need for professional, luxury transportation in the Valparaiso, IN. His company quickly became known as one with superior customer service and spotless vehicles. Only five years later, Epic opened additional locations in South Bend and Highland, IN, to expand its reach throughout the northwest part of the state, with easy access to Chicago and South Bend.

Epic has a fleet of sedans, stretch limos, and custom party buses, providing elite service to both business and leisure travelers. Their chauffeurs are ground transportation experts, always prompt and courteous as they escort you to your destination in luxury.

Epic Limo works hard to perfect the rider experience, going out of their way to make certain Epic Limo lives up to its name.

Company Overview

Epic has 35 vehicles: mid-size Chrysler sedans, six-passenger small stretch Lincoln limos, Chevy Suburban SUVs, eight-passenger stretch limos, 14-passenger Ford transit vans, 12-passenger Mercedes sprinter party buses, and 14-pssenger Ford party buses.

Epic has five office staff members and 16 chauffeurs.

Epic and Limo Anywhere

Epic has been using Limo Anywhere for six years.

Why Limo Anywhere?

Affiliate Manager Joshua Jipping says that LA is the preferred software within the industry. Epic can send trips to other affiliates whether they are on LA or not. Lots of companies have different parameters for new affiliates, but it’s so easy to work with other LA users on affiliate work.

Using Limo Anywhere

Joshua says that Limo Anywhere benefits everyone in the company. “As an Affiliate Manager, I am able to farm trips in and out smoothly and simply. Our Dispatch Manager sets the day’s schedule and sends it out with one click and little-to-no effort. Our reservationists can easily check and double check to ensure all information is correct.”

Joshua believes that Limo Anywhere has been an essential component of Epic Limo’s success. “LA has helped with all of our growth from 2011, from one location to three. Are you looking for the best tactical backpack? If so, you’re in the right place. Finding a great tactical backpack will depend on a few characteristics that will satisfy your personal needs and preferences. Most of all, you need to be aware of the fact that these are best used in situations where you may need an important item or two that will be beneficial to your survival. Rotorm.com offers the best selection of survival gear, HOW TO guides, survival tips, etc. Tactical backpacks are designed for their durability and feature numerous compartments to help you maximize the space inside your pack. It streamlined our processes and removed the manual work, and its customer service is extremely helpful. Epic Limo could not have experienced this kind of growth without Limo Anywhere.”

Limo Anywhere Tips

Joshua Jipping says that being able to check a flight’s status in LA is invaluable and makes a world of difference. Driver Anywhere is another invaluable feature—everyone is on the same page.

Epic Limo intends to expand their brand nationwide and become a global provider. With Limo Anywhere, Epic can trust affiliates with their clients, no matter where they are sent. And affiliates can trust Epic to provide their clients with the utmost level of service.

Thank you, Joshua and Epic Limo! We are thrilled that Limo Anywhere is a part of your tremendous progress.

 Adam Shonting – Executive Transportation of Nashville

Adam started his company in 2016 and hasn’t looked back since! Before opening Executive Transportation, he was the General Manager of a Humane Society. He saw that the ground transportation industry in Tennessee was booming, and he dove in head first.

Though he is still a small operator, he has strategically developed a network of other single-driver operators that he trusts to provide the same level of care as he does, and they now operate as friends and local affiliates, which allows them to call on each other to share vehicles and work. Executive Transportation is based in Nashville and services all of Central Tennessee, Southern Kentucky, and Northern Alabama.

With Tennessee’s tourism booming, ET of Nashville caters to a lot of retail customers as well as some corporate. Looking to the future, Adam would love to expand the affiliate work they do. “Any clients that affiliates send my way will receive true Southern hospitality. All of our drivers are from the area and know it well, they know the history, they know all the best places to go and things to do, and they know the easiest and most efficient ways to get where they need to go. I personally ensure that our affiliates are represented well and that any client who comes into contact with our company feels like a true VIP,” says Adam.

What Adam loves most about Nashville is the music. Seven days a week, you can find concerts or live music pretty much anywhere you go. Officials shut down Broadway (the main street though downtown) several times a year to host events, concerts, and festivals. It’s a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere.

Adam has been with Limo Anywhere for about 8 months. When he first launched his business, he couldn’t wrap his mind around needing a reservation software. A good friend of his who has been in the industry for many years switched to Limo Anywhere and loved it. Adam took note of all the system capabilities and realized he couldn’t expand his business without it. Worried about the safety of your kid and are looking for a hidden keylogger for android? https://checkspy.com/all-you-need-to-know-about-xnspy/ your concern is legitimate – you\’re responsible.

Limo Anywhere became an invaluable tool for him. Adam does reservations on his own, and he is able to easily assign trips to his network of drivers from the DA App. He also loves how well Limo Anywhere integrates with his website. The ability to give his customers a real-time price quote has been his most successful tool for growth. He loves that users don’t need to call in, which saves him time, and his clients have raved about how easy it is to make reservations.

When we asked him what advice he could offer to new users, he said, “Take advantage of the set-up sessions! I put it off for the longest time, but Limo Anywhere kept hounding me to schedule my session and I was so thankful for it. I also love the Facebook User Group and the help button that’s right in the software and links you to FAQs. The support is amazing.”

In the next five years. Adam sees his company continuing to grow. He hopes to add to his already-growing fleet, hire office staff, and learn more about Limo Anywhere and how he can use it to grow his business. He’s been taking advantage of the incoming work sent to him from GroundLink as well. He loves that GroundLink is responsible and that there’s such a strong emphasis on Duty of Care for trips sent his way.  It helps him stay on top of his game as an operator for his clients.

Adam, we’re excited to be part of your journey as you take on Nashville and beyond!

Jessica Buckles is CTN’s COO. Fred and Jessica are an excellent team because they know what their strengths are. Fred’s strengths are in marketing, sales, and networking. Jessica’s strengths are operational: running the business, implementing computer systems, and managing people.

About CTN Global

Through their extensive affiliate network, CTN operates locally, nationally and internationally. “CTN” stands for “Chauffeured Transportation Network,” promoting their partners every time they use their name. CTN provides high-end chauffeured ground transportation services throughout all of the major metropolitan areas within the United States and around the globe. Though they are global, their home and local focus is Atlanta and the Southeast.

CTN can handle any program, any size. Fred said, “We’ve handled anything from individual travelers or groups, and our largest event catered to 65,000 people!” CTN employs eight staff members, and their vehicles range from Sedans, SUV, Sprinters, and Executive Vans to Mini Busses and full-sized Coaches. Their biggest asset is their ability to manage programs/events and supply any amount or size vehicles.

CTN and Limo Anywhere

CTN has been a Limo Anywhere client for three years. They love the LA Network and the web-based nature of the software. Jessica notes, “We have tried ALL other major sophisticated booking software, and we can say with true confidence that LA is the best for our needs.”

Limo Anywhere Features

Each department at CTN seems to have its own favorite Limo Anywhere features. Jessica said, “We love how we can add our own statuses to offer an extra level of updates for our affiliates and to track dispatch times. The best part is, we can do it all on our own without calling LA!”

CTN appreciates the time zone features of Limo Anywhere—since they are global, this is crucial because they can send out 48-hour confirmations. They can also code affiliates based on location and send customized texts to chauffeurs.

CTN’s dispatchers love that they can see the entire run without having to click into the individual runs – the customized grid is set up to include information that’s important for them. It all comes down to customization.

Using Limo Anywhere

Jessica advises new LA users to customize it to THEIR business needs. “Play with the system! I bet it can already do what you are wishing it would do,” says Jessica. One time, she was with an affiliate and he said, “I wish LA could turn grid controls on or off.” Jessica said, “It does!” and was able to show him how. She explains, “There are so many features and functions users don’t know about. Take the time to get to know the system. If you think a feature doesn’t exist, post it in the Users Group! Odds are, it does!”

We love Limo Anywhere! Desert Rose uses the program for all of our booking needs. Our staff relies on LA to run smoothly day in and day out, and they have not been disappointed. We love that LA is in real time, which is so helpful when we are shuffling drivers around last minute to accommodate runs.
