    He also introduced Budget credit cards, He set up Budget travel vouchers, was in the process of setting up Australias first low cost Airline under the Budget brand in the 80’s also. He also was the first person to crack the Japanese market and was trying to make inroads to the Chinese market as he predicted it would boom back in the 80’s also. Some of the most clever TV advertising campaigns were done through Budget branded advertising (if I remember correctly).

He also had the first “Budget Airplane” that toured Australia to promote the brand to be “No.1 in ‘81″ which he achieved defeating Avis and Hertz in one foul swoop.
