In my 16 years of successful selling to the RTO industry, I have never seen an item rent as quickly and often as the new Scarface line, introduced in the fall of 2006.

Artistic Resource Team, Inc, formerly ME Gallery & Walcutt Art, announced that 2006 sales to the Rent to Own (RTO) industry more than doubled 2005.

President, Joe Rizk, stated that Walcutt Art purchased ME Gallery nearly two years ago with the specific goal in mind of building on the success that they found for years in the RTO Industry. "Our intention was to reduce expenses, minimize non profitable accounts, and place these savings into the development of products that our customers needed," said Rizk. "We are able to offer our RTO customers wall décor that rents $5.99-6.99/ week offering a 4 – 5 turn, better than what they generally are able to achieve with other products."

Mr. Rizk also announced the launch of a new website tailored specifically to the RTO Industry - www.Rent2OwnPictures.com. "What we are trying to do is create a progressive, easy to use place for our RTO customers to place orders for pictures. Online ordering insures you see the latest available art and streamlines the process. Qualified dealers can browse, click, order and receive confirmation the same day.

"We are adding our inventory to the online catalog now. Soon, several hundred images will be available, all updated weekly.

Artistic Resource Team specializes in all types of wall décor, canvas, giclees, and mated prints in all sizes. Visit the website today and join their family of satisfied RTO customers.
