I have always been an independent lessor.   After graduating from college, I went to work for a small independent leasing company in sales and was quickly promoted to Regional Sales Manager.  After riding through the recession of the late 1980’s, I started FSG in 1991.   FSG was started with 2 employees and just a few years later the staff had grown to 11.   After the 2001 recession, I reduced the headcount of the company and decided we would do “more with less”.   This strategy has worked out very well.
