In this exclusive APRO interview, Ohio Rental Dealers Association President and Countryside Rentals owner Mike Tissot discusses some of the factors that contributed to the record breaking attendance at the 2008 Midwest RTO Training Expo this week in Ohio.

Excellent training and an innovative revenue sharing initiative helped draw 233 rental dealers to the Concourse Hotel and Conference Center in Columbus, Ohio for the fifth annual Expo.

Dealers spent September 9 and 10 cramming on the latest innovations in consumer electronics, furniture and appliances in the hopes of sharing the information with customers and moving more product in the fourth quarter.
