March 1, 2012

Here at NATSO, we recently launched some exciting changes to our website, and we are certain we’ve created a one-stop resource for all of your business and industry information needs.

We are constantly inspired and impressed by the innovation and passion you bring to your locations. We tapped into that inspiration and designed this site with you in mind.

We have created a more navigable website with additional resources, a new design and a NATSO blog to support your operations. Our new site will make it much easier for you to find and share resources.

Valuable and timely information
We’ve broken the site into four main sections: Truckstop Business, Fuel & Trucking, Industry Trends & News and Great Ideas. Each section contains specific information so you can drill down to the details that will help you optimize your operations. For example, when you click on Truckstop Business, you will see you can learn more about Human Relations, Marketing, Operations, Technology and Leadership & Strategy. From detailed information about the latest fuel payment options to trends to watch, the new site is packed with the information you need.

We’ve also provided a separate heading so you can jump quickly to our key issues. We know commercialization, tolling and privatization, credit/debit fees and regulatory issues directly affect the way you do business, and NATSO staff is working every day to protect your interests on Capitol Hill. Click on any of the links to learn more about how we’re representing your interests.

We’re replacing the print version of Action Report that has appeared in Stop Watch with this vast network of online resources, which we can update in a timelier fashion. We know your time is valuable and we want you to have an at-a-glance view of the industry’s top issues. To make it even easier to surf our site, we have placed quick links on the right-hand side of the site. You can look at the top 10 links, which we’ve sorted by the newest, most popular, most discussed and editor’s picks.

A place to exchange ideas
The site also features a blog where staff and guest bloggers will share timely posts you can relate to. We’d love to have you take a moment to click on the social media icons on the site and connect with us via Facebook, YouTube or Twitter. We want to have a conversation with you and the web makes it easier than ever for us to connect.

Please visit us at www.natso.com, click around and explore the wealth of information that is at your fingertips. We’re excited for you to see the new features we’ve created for you.

Our goal is to serve you, so please reach out to any member of NATSO’s staff if there is a feature we can bring to the website to better meet your needs.
