TIP Capital, a leading provider of equipment finance and asset management solutions, has developed a new Specialty Markets Group designed to assist vendors, manufacturers and resellers in establishing competitive financing programs to complement their direct sales.

Reporting to Senior Vice President Bill Purcell, this veteran team has the experience and resources to develop leasing products for any industry including, but not limited to, telephone systems, construction equipment, manufacturing equipment, medical equipment, material handling equipment, IT equipment, cloud computing solutions and much more.

“Our Specialty Markets Group will design a program that gives the vendor, manufacturer or reseller all of the benefits of an in-house leasing and finance organization along with the ease and convenience of a turn-key, outsource operation,” Purcell said. “TIP Capital has dedicated resources to create a user-friendly leasing program with competitive rates, simple documentation process and professional marketing and training support to make financing a profitable and easy-to-use alternative for their business.”
