“Bought the second van and doubled the runs.”
Leah started her courier run in Adelaide with one van and a knack for being reliable when bigger outfits weren't. Word got around. Within a couple of years she had more work than one driver and one vehicle could physically cover, and she was turning down contracts she'd have loved to take.
The maths was simple — a second van and a second driver would roughly double her capacity. The hard part was the upfront cost of the vehicle. Her bank wanted a long form, a stack of statements, and a few weeks she didn't have while a regional contract sat on the table waiting for an answer.
The turning point
Leah found Zupo and went in cautiously. The application took minutes and didn't touch her credit score. What sold her was the angle: Zupo looked at the contracts in hand and the runs she was already turning away, treating the van as an asset that would pay for itself, not just a debt.
Asset finance for the second van came back quickly, structured so the repayments lined up with the extra income the vehicle would bring in from day one.
The van was earning before the first repayment was even due. That's how it should work.
The outcome
Leah took the regional contract she'd been eyeing, hired a second driver, and near enough doubled her daily runs. The second van slotted straight into a schedule that already had the work waiting for it, so there was no awkward stretch of paying for capacity she couldn't yet use.
- Turning away contracts with only one van
- Financed a second vehicle with repayments matched to new income
- Doubled daily runs and brought on a second driver
