This Rent to Own Audio Podcast brought to you by APRO's RTOHQ.org

Stacy Davis is the vice president of store operations for Option Rentals, a 27-year-old rent-to-own company with three stores in the Nashville area.

Davis was one of several Tennessee dealers who trekked to the Opryland Hotel and Resort in Nashville for the annual meeting of the Tennessee Rental Dealers Association.

Davis is a new member of TRIB Group and APRO who said the ideas she has gained through networking with fellow dealers has made a tremendous difference in the profitability of Options Rentals over the last several months.

Keeping up to speed on legal and legislative issues is just one of the benefits that make membership in TRDA invaluable, she says.

"If you have more people coming up to bat for the industry," Davis says, "the better off we will be. The benefit of membership is huge. Just to be able to hear about some of the legal details of policies and procedures and what we need to do to keep us safe and keep us growing is worth it."
