Rent-to-own News - APRO Special Products/Services Focus: ContactPoint

While other keynote speakers pack a notepad and pen, Jeremiah places a one inch thick board in his briefcase. Traveling the United States, Jeremiah Wilson’s not so ordinary keynote address has created quite a buzz over the unusual presentation.

This year’s APRO (Association of Progressive Rental Organizations) 2010 keynote address should have the same effect as Wilson prepares to bring his message to the industry leaders. Each year many people involved in the Rent-To-Own industry flock to APRO to share their talents, success and find ways to improve.

This year’s keynote is entitled, “The Passion to Succeed, The Power to Break Barriers”.  This is an action packed address that doesn’t put the audience on the hypothetical “edge” of their seat; it pulls them out of their chairs and screaming and jumping in the air. This energizing session is geared towards compelling the movers and shakers of their industries to stand up and own their success.

ContactPoint, of which Jeremiah Wilson is acting President and Founder, will also be presenting at the APRO show with three separate breakout sessions. Seasoned Director of Sales and Service Performance, Mitch Wasden, will take the stage Thursday, July 20th at 2:15pm and 4pm.

The first seminar presented is “Coach Your Teams to High Sales” followed by “Create Sales: Be Order Makers not Order Takers”.  Wasden’s experience within the industry lends to a valuable and informative presentation. The last session presented by ContactPoint will be from Jeremiah Wilson entitled, “Leadership: Get Out There and Do It!”

ContactPoint has created a culture of success. “Success is directly related to how comfortable you feel dealing with discomfort,” says Jeremiah Wilson. The desire to stretch and change is taught all over the globe to house wives and executives in what is referred to as Power Training. Through this training, ContactPoint saw the creation of sister company, PowerWithinUs.

LogMyCalls is another division of ContactPoint leading the way to provide call recording, tracking and scoring services for industry and business leaders. LogMyCalls will be featured prominently at this year’s APRO show. The features offered here will help any small business track their marketing and advertising helping them to recognize which campaigns are most effective. Free demonstrations will be available at the ContactPoint booth #245.

"The use of 'state-of-the-art' equipment and the posting of the calls on the web for the employee and manager to review is ingenious.” Says a happy client at Nickell Equipment Rental and Sales, “The sales increase generated during our second month of being in the program was more than double the cost of what we will pay for the program for the whole year!"
