1 – Four straightforward practices to help manage fuel consumption
 
This post has been the most popular of 2014. It gives you an overview on how you can start, as a company, to keep track of fuel consumption. Adoption of new technology could potentially be the next step, but the post also examines some easy steps you might take before investing in technology, or if you have a very small fleet.
 
2 – Five characteristics of a superstar fleet manager
 
Another successful post; this one examines the ideal characteristics of a fleet manager, not only from a strictly professional/commercial perspective but also from a human point of view.
 
3 - How a driving competition can turn into fuel savings and safer driving
 
Here you can read how we organised an internal driving competition at Fuel Improve back in January. We used this game as a motivational exercise (gamification) to help us to meet our fuel targets. The results were amazing: our fuel consumption dropped significantly and our driving style improved; the lucky winner even earned themselves a free lunch!
 
4 - Best practices for preparing your fleet for winter driving
 
A brief guide emphasising good winter-driving practices: incorporating tips to help you prepare your fleet for the cold season, how to conduct a comprehensive small vehicle check, and what important items to include in your winter kit list. The article also inspired one of our eBooks which contains more in-depth advice on winter driving techniques.
