Rentathon Blog

Rentathon is an up-and-coming platform that will enable users to rent and rent out products to people in their communities. Now, you may be wondering why you would ever want to do this. Let me explain. Imagine this: You have a 10-year-old guitar laying in your garage taking up space that could be used for something else and collecting dust. You had bought this guitar 10 years ago thinking that you were going to learn how to play it, but you never had the time to do so. You need space in your garage for the new ATV that you are buying but don’t want to just throw the guitar away after never using it (which would be like throwing $500 down the drain).

Eventually, you will be able to make your money back and continue to make profits off of that

"These students have demonstrated the ingenuity, innovation, and problem-solving skills which will help them to be successful as young entrepreneurs," said Bilirakis. "I wish them continued success." "Photography equipment is extremely expensive and costly for beginners, and a community
