Advertising Rates and Programs with the VFD-Funding Group

At VFD-Fire Group, we have quickly grown to a cluster of eighteen (18) high profile, high search engine ranking and high visitor traffic web sites. We realize that as we have created, published and hosted our own web sites, we can provide very effective and direct advertising for fire apparatus manufacturers, dealers, EMS apparatus, equipment manufacturers and distributors, used fire truck dealers, and for fire departments to sell their used apparatus and equipment.

In addition to the direct leads from our web site, our advertising customers and preferred vendors get the benefit of the high quality leads we send them directly, which result from the inquiries from the customer fire departments that we receive daily. Thus, those manufacturers, dealers, and other vendors who advertise with us get something that conventional magazine ads don't offer and can't deliver . . . and oh, we also provide the best financing found anywhere.
