30 Years of ELEASE

St Petersburg, FL --This month marks 30 years since I founded ELEASE, and to be honest, it's hard to put into words what that really means.

In 1995, I started this company with $5,000, a used desk, and a lot of heart. I slept on the floor of our first office for six months, chasing a vision fueled by a simple belief: if we put our clients first and help them succeed, everything else would follow.

That belief has never changed. It's still what drives us every day.

To our customers: thank you for trusting us with your businesses, your challenges, and your goals. Your business growth is the reason we exist. You've shaped this company more than any strategy or plan ever could. 

To our vendors and partners: thank you for standing with us, growing with us, and helping us improve year after year.

To every team member who's been part of this journey: thank you for believing in the mission and pouring your time, talent, and energy into ELEASE. This business was built on your shoulders, and I'll never forget it. 

Thirty years in, and I've never been more energized. The spark that started this is still burning, and the firepower behind it is stronger than ever. With our access to capital and the incredible team we have today, it truly feels like we're just getting started. The opportunities ahead are as energizing as those early days on the office floor. 

We're here to make sure your equipment financing and working capital needs are met by a team that genuinely cares about your growth.

Thank you for being part of our story. I can't wait to see what we'll build together in the next chapter.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Tom Williams
Founder & CEO
