Paragon Aviation Group Finds Success with New Vendor Program – Strategic Partners

Launched in 2019, Paragon Aviation Group^® introduced Strategic Partners, a vendor program offering exclusive pricing to Paragon Preferred customers.

In addition to Paragon Preferred customers receiving customized and competitive fuel pricing from participating Paragon Member FBOs, customers now have access to carefully vetted key vendors for all their business needs.

“We wanted to give our Paragon Preferred members an added value by giving them a group of qualified companies to use,” said Megan Barnes, President of Paragon Aviation Group^®. “We took the hassle out of spending hours researching businesses to see if they were reliable and trustworthy. Our advisory board approves these companies based on their integrity and proven performance in the industry.”

Before a company can join Strategic Partners, the Strategic Partners Advisory Board, which is made up of industry leaders, must approve each company based on stringent criteria including customer service, quality and company history.

These first‐rate companies work transparently to provide competitive or favored nation pricing and span several categories from promotional items to maintenance services. Current vendors include: Aero Law Group, Aerovon Risk Advisors, Aircare International, Airtight Aviation Services Ltd, EVO Jet Services, FlightBridge, GGT Worldwise Secure Chauffeured Services, Go Rentals, Jaylynn Promotions, JetASAP, Lowcountry Aviation MRO, RBR Aviation MRO, Skyplan Services Ltd., Stevens Aerospace and Defense Systems and Torn Ranch.

There are three packages for vendors to choose from all receiving consistent communication with thousands of individuals in their target market. The Premium, Plus and VIP packages all include social media sharing, tradeshow recognition and ads in the e‐newsletters which reaches over 900 flight departments. A dedicated website, www.paragonvendors.com, was also launched to ensure more exposure.
