The Connectors
By Kristen Card

Taking into consideration APRO’s 2008 Convention theme, “Rent-to-Own Connections,” we debut RTOHQ: The Magazine with a series of profiles on some of those in our industry who use their insights about rent-to-own and their abilities of persuasion to connect with members of Congress: Congressman William Lacy Clay, Steve Kruse, RSSS’ Ellison Crider, Missouri’s Mighty Cs (Larry Carrico, “Tiger” John Cleek and Dan Cole), Lyn Leach, Bryce Company’s Bryan Collins, Tom Bernau and Benefit Marketing Solutions.

 

Identity Theft in the Rent-to-Own World
By Ed Winn III
These days, businesses are being held more accountable for the records they keep and the safeguards they use to protect them. Should your customers’ personal and financial information fall into the hands of thieves, you might be liable for the damages caused.
