Loyalty Pawn Family

Greetings Loyalty Pawn Family,

For this month we are going to get to know Ricardo Molina the Senior SLA from the El Camino location. This month it finally looks like some of that tax money is starting to flow through, like we have been talking about in our manager calls this is a perfect opportunity to remind our clients about their layaways. With clients coming in trying to redeem their loans by reminding them about their layaways they might change their minds and pay the interest on their items and pick up their layaways. It's crazy to see El Camino slowly creep up to Florin's loan balance I can't wait to see what store reaches the $2million first.
