Before incorporating HuntLease Systems, the client, a forestry consulting and land management firm managing approximately 10,000 acres, faced significant challenges in lease management.The process was labor-intensive and time-eating, consuming over 120 hours of a single employee's time. The key issues included lease renewals, club member updates, paperwork handling, and a complex payment process. Additionally, the client's profitability from multi-purpose leases was hampered by the operational challenges.

Challenges in Lease Management: The primary challenge faced by the client was the manual handling of lease management tasks. Updating and renewing leases involved tedious administrative work, such as printing and mailing documents, which not only consumed considerable time but also introduced a risk of errors. Club member updates and communication also required tedious hours of labor.

Payment Process Challenges: The client's payment process was another pain point. Collecting lease payments was a labor-intensive task, involving manual tracking of payments, reconciliation, and record-keeping. This challenging process not only added to the workload but also increased the risk of payment discrepancies and sluggish mail delivery.

Multi-Purpose Leases: The client did not offer billed multi-purpose leases because these were cumbersome to manage due to the complexities involved in tracking different types of usage. This hindered the client's ability to maximize the profitability of these leases, as the effort required often outweighed the financial gains.
