While Hurricane Dorian made its first landfall in the Unites States on Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, this morning, we want to remind everyone that we can offer assistance to rent-to-own employees.There are more than 625 RTO stores along the affected states and we want to help. Please share the RTO Employee Disaster Relief Fund application with any APRO members you may know along the east coast or click below to apply.

While RTO World 2019, held early last month, featured many business innovations and product showcases, the trade show floor had the works. An RTO Works store, that is. APRO board secretary and recipient of this year's Ernie Talley Lifetime Achievement Award David P. David—along with the help of Full-O-Pep and Countryside Rentals' team members—created RTO Works, a 4,200-square-feet retail

space designed to maximize sales opportunity in every product category. Click below to read more about the RTO Works pop-up.

At APRO, we never stop thinking about the next best thing and are always looking onward and into the future. That being said, we need YOUR help in making the industry's biggest event of the year another success! Even though it is only September, we are already making plans to amp up RTO World 2020.
