NARS 2019 Challenges Industry Professionals to Adapt, Conquer and Overcome
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DALLAS, Texas – May 2, 2019 – The North American Repossessors Summit (NARS), an industry event hosted by American Recovery Association, Inc. (ARA) and sponsored by Harding Brooks Insurance, is proud to announce the success of its 2019 conference, appropriately themed “Adapt, Conquer and Overcome.”
The 11th annual gathering boasted a staggering attendance of more than 600 participants, including recovery and remarketing professionals and lenders. In addition, fund-raising efforts contributed over $20,000 to the Recovery Agents Benefit Fund (RABF), thanks to DRN (Digital Recognition Network) for their continued support and successful fundraising for RABF at NARS, Mike Reiter and silent auction sponsors: Anthony Gentile of Dynamic Wrecker Sales, David Kennedy of First Credit Resources, Fidel Sanchez of Midwest Keyless, Emily Massey of S.C.A.R., Inc., Mike Sarraille of Echelon Front and Steve Simons of Paramount Recovery Service.
NARS cemented its place as the “must-attend” event of the year in the recovery industry for both attendees and exhibitors alike, with sponsorships and exhibitor opportunities selling out months in advance.
“NARS 2019 set the tone for the future. It was amazing—the energy and feeling of unity was felt in every session and networking event,” said Dave Kennedy, president of ARA. “Every year, I am floored by the event’s ability to bring together professionals from all sides of this industry, while also raising thousands to benefit recovery agents in need.”
NARS 2019 kicked off with workshop options and unique networking opportunities for attendees. During NARS’ Locksmithing Workshop, attendees learned a new vertical that could help add to their bottom line. The annual AT&T Stadium Tour led attendees through Jerry World to a private field-level dining experience, and even a little rain couldn’t keep golfers at the annual NARS Golf Tournament from having a blast. Other networking opportunities available at NARS 2019 were the Harding Brooks Insurance sponsored Cocktail Party and Digital Recognition Network (DRN) sponsored Closing Party.
Through a compelling line-up of speakers, NARS 2019 equipped attendees with the practical knowledge and inspiration to truly Adapt, Conquer and Overcome. Retired U.S. Navy Seal Mike Sarraille inspired the crowd to practice extreme ownership and have moral courage. Scott Jackson shared his story of having it all, losing it all, and how learning to first Adapt and Conquer helped him eventually Overcome obstacles at every turn in his life. Brandon Gray shared his candid financial expertise on exit-planning during his Strategic Planning Session. The NARS 2019 Keynote speaker, best-selling author Bob Burg, brought the house down with his philosophy on how living life the “Go Giver Way” leads to both professional and personal success.
NARS 2019 also introduced the first-ever NARS Industry Awards, which honored exemplary industry professionals. The inaugural honorees included Agent of the Year Michael Simpson, Service Representative of the Year Jon Jendral, Humanitarian of the Year Ray Franklin and Agency Owner of the Year Richard Grosvenor. Additionally, the prestigious Art Christensen Award was given to Mike Reiter for his outstanding contributions and service to the recovery industry.
