Rent-to-own News - Nalley Truck Among Sponsors for The Premier Companies 2011 Convention
Sponsors like Michelle Dunning of Nalley Truck, are signing up in record numbers to participate at the annual convention of The Premier Companies Jan. 17 -19 at The Wild Horse Pass Resort in Chandler, Arizona.
A longtime supporter of Premier, Dunning has been to every Premier dealer gathering since the organization started.
Premier is also using a real-time text messaging system that will remind attendees of key agenda items and breakout sessions during the event. Premier Franchise/Vendor Liaison John Darden said Premier's success was a result of a symbiotic relationship with vendors like Nalley Truck.
“We are very grateful for the record number of vendors who have agreed to support our 2011 National Convention, and especially for those like Michelle, who saw from the start what we were capable of doing and have walked with us along the way.”

Who Is Your Competition? by Bill Keese In order to expand your customer base, you can learn a lot by observing your competitors. But first, you need to figure out just who they are. If you think your only competition is the rent-to-own store down the street, you’re not considering the bigger picture. APRO’s executive director offers a big-picture perspective.
A Review of Online Customer Complaints by Ed Winn III While rent-to-own companies have not cornered the market on negative reviews posted on consumer complaint websites, it’s no surprise that there are cyberspace beefs against RTO.
