The Association of Equipment Manufacturers explores how the sharing economy can help manufacturers sell their machines. Burly’s network and equipment sharing platform help manufacturers by:

  1. Introducing your products to new buyers.
  2. Providing end-users easier access to your products.
  3. Allowing end-users to inexpensively rent your products and try them out in their real-world work before buying.
  4. Helping farmers and contractors buy your machine without worrying about whether or not it will be utilized enough in their jobs to recoup the investment. The Burly platform makes idle machines into rental revenue generators.
  5. Building a pipeline for future sales. As equipment sharing on Burly increases, machine utilization hours will go up, leading to faster turnover and replacement schedules.
  6. Helping manufacturers earn revenue on unsold and used equipment by renting it on Burly’s platform.
  7. Helping manufacturers buy-down the cost of trade-ins by renting on Burly’s platform.

Burly works closely with equipment manufacturers, even those with existing rental programs. If you’re exploring how the sharing economy or Burly’s platform can benefit you, send me a message.
