Amur Is Cutting Rates!

As of October 1, Amur is excited to announce a 50 basis point rate reduction on most financing transactions!

As you’ve no doubt heard, the Federal Reserve recently lowered its benchmark rate.  We are thrilled to be able to do the same. With lower rates, now is the perfect time to help customers who have been waiting for more affordable financing options to take action on their equipment purchases. Amur’s flexible financing options make it easy to capitalize on this pent-up demand.

Amur’s ability to match the Federal Reserve’s rate cut is due to its strong capital position and increasing market share.  Over the last 18 months, as many banks have pulled back, Amur has continued to support its partners’ and customers’ growth and is now very excited to be able to offer some needed rate relief.

At Amur, we're here to help America’s small businesses harness opportunities with tailored financing solutions that empower your growth. A simple payment quote provided with your all-in equipment cost can change the conversation from "how can I afford it?" to "let's get started."

If you'd like assistance in creating a marketing campaign, email or discussing other strategies to promote these new rates to your customers as you prepare for Q4, please reach out to your Amur representative today.

Leading Edge Program

​

Introduce Financing to Your Sale Financing is seen as a sticky conversation for some. It doesn’t have to be. There are a number of ways to highlight how financing can be a true benefit to many of your customers. Offering payment options opens up additional opportunities and can minimize objections and speed your sales. Increase your opportunities today!

• Introduce financing as an option with every quote, showing a monthly payment amount along with your full price quote
• Add an online financing page to your website, click here to see an example
• Make sure your sales team is aware of the benefits of financing. Contact your Amur representative to help train your team
• Email your database to let them know that financing is available, with some of the key benefits to doing so:
  • Facilitates customers’ ability to take advantage of deals quickly (e.g., show or season specials) without needing to raise capital
  • Allows buyers to include add-ons or additional technology to their purchase
  • Enables customers to use their capital for other things, whether R&D, additional staff or marketing
  • Provides the opportunity for tax benefits via Section 179: immediate expense deduction for purchases of depreciable business equipment

Paperless Statements are on the way!

We are excited to announce that starting in October 2024, Amur will send all invoices to customers via email. Invoices will also be accessible by logging into goamur.com.
