After hearing this concept on multiple podcasts we listen to, we decided to take a stab at it for our commercial/fleet audience.

We answer those questions, and more, in this piece. As for the Tim Tebow speech we mention toward the end, that can be viewed here: https://www.facebook.com/TimTebow/videos/971767196494770

It would be foolish to set expectations, however we firmly believe that creating a plan now will help when opportunities come available. So, here is our updated plan for 2020, though obviously anything can change at any time. In the meantime, please reach out to us, we'd love to hear from you!

In case you haven't heard, we're hosting a Virtual Mini Camp on Zoom next week, April 20-24. Each day we'll go for one hour, from 3 pm ET to 4 pm ET, discussing one overarching topic per day.
