Edward Slinin eager to unveil next corporate travel innovation

Aug. 16, 2012 - PRLog -- Edward Slinin understands that it takes more than hard work to build a business, whether it’s a mom and pop local bakery or a corporate transportation empire. But, when it comes to Corporate Transportation Group, this quiet, humble industry titan is not about to let anyone tell him “you didn’t build that.” Ed Slinin is just willing to admit that hard work can only take you so far. You need guts, service and a willingness to take risks.

The immigrant kid once known as Eddie Slinin, when he emigrated from the Soviet Union as a 12-year-old understands well the flawed mindset that, no matter what you build, it is really the work of someone else. This is the mindset he and his parents rejected when they left Russia and came to the United States decades ago. As he grew up, Eduard Slinin eventually changed his name to the “more American” Edward Slinin, but that was not all about America that young Ed Slinin embraced. Edward fully embraced the uniquely American mixture of hard work, opportunity and risk that turned this country into the world’s innovator. And Slinin’s business success followed suit. He began with one car, a dream and a willingness to pursue it. He now has thousands of cars in hundreds of cities all over the world. And, says Slinin, it is not just hard work that got him there. It was his willingness to embrace technologies that were often considered too risky or expensive by his competitors. Many of these same competitors came around to Slinin’s way of thinking after his successful Corporate Transportation Group began gobbling up their market share. Now, Edward Slinin and CTG are the undisputed trendsetters in both industry technique and technology.

So, what will Ed Slinin think of next? That is the question many are asking now. Will it be more hybrid cars in his fleet? A move that, once questioned, now has competitors green with envy. Will it be upgraded GPS systems? Smart phones for all drivers? Some as yet undiscovered technology? The jury is still out and the folks at CTG remain tightlipped about what this latest innovation will be. But, no matter what it is, rest assured that Edward Slinin and Corporate Transportation Group will, once again, silence doubters, amaze competitors and earn the respect and appreciation of grateful customers.
