Greetings, American Rental Association (ARA) members! My name is Nancy Ramacitti, ARA member services account specialist. I joined ARA this year and am pleased to serve as your new primary contact with the association.
I am a native of Moline, Ill., home of ARA’s headquarters, and currently reside in the nearby community of Rock Island. When I’m away from work, I enjoy outdoor activities such as long-distance bike riding and gardening — it’s exciting to see flowers and plants bloom. I also like to challenge myself by creating new dishes to cook, and baking different kinds of croissants is the best therapy.
When speaking with members about the range of benefits ARA offers, it’s impossible to single out one as “the best” since there are so many that are suited for different needs. But personally, I would say that RentalU — ARA’s online education platform — is at the top of the list. The first-class courses available through RentalU can be overlooked by members among the wide array of resources accessible through ARA. But when I discuss RentalU with members, they understand how much the platform’s content can help them train their staff with confidence, knowing their business will be built on experience and continuing education. I encourage you to check out RentalU today.
If you have any questions or concerns about your ARA membership, don’t hesitate to reach out to me at nancy.ramacitti@ararental.org or 800-334-2177, ext. 276.
I look forward to speaking with many of you in the future!
