RTO Triage: Diagnose What Ails Your Business and Cure It!
Mike Tissot, Countryside Rentals
10:50-11:50 a.m.
You’ve come to the conclusion that certain facets of your business are making overall success too challenging, but you aren’t certain which practices are most lacking. In this session, popular rent-to-own speaker Mike Tissot will explore how to diagnose and pinpoint what ails your rent-to-own store. Whether it’s sales, collections, margins, traffic, marketing—or all of the above—once a diagnosis is determined, remedies for a rebound can be implemented successfully. This session will encourage rental dealers to be honest about the weak links in their store operations and Tissot will offer remedies that can be put into action right away.
Tissot’s warning, though: attending this session could cause an increase in deliveries. Other side effects might include, but are not limited to, higher revenues and profits. Less common side effects include drowsiness, vomiting or sometimes even death.
