To be a retailer unique in the products or services offered is an anomaly. Others in the industry constantly compete against each other to convince consumers to shop at their business. The key to finding your edge against fierce competition? Get innovative.  

Today’s value-conscious consumers demand flexibility, convenience and affordability — shaping the need for retailers to develop strategic approaches to meet their customers’ evolving shopping habits. One impactful tool that addresses all three demands is lease-to-own options. Far from being just another way to shop, lease-to-own empowers businesses to meet the evolving needs of their customers while gaining a significant competitive edge in the retail world.  

This is where Acima Leasing emerges as the solution to watch out for, providing a powerful toolkit to differentiate retail businesses, ultimately propelling growth while giving customers shopping power competitors may not provide. Read on to see why!  

Beyond Flexibility: Building a Competitive Edge 

At the heart of Acima Leasing’s offerings lies a powerful lease-to-own solution, which extends beyond just existing as an alternative to financing. Here’s how leveraging Acima Leasing’s solution can unlock a range of benefits and empower your business to excel: 

Capture a Wider Customer Base 

Acima Leasing’s flexible terms make your products accessible to a broader demographic, attracting customers who may not qualify for financing or prefer smaller scheduled lease renewal payments over a large upfront cost. By expanding your market reach, you can tap into new segments and drive growth.  

Drive Sales and Increase Average Order Value 

Enabling customers to acquire higher-ticket items with manageable lease renewal payments can significantly boost sales volume and increase average transaction value. Acima Leasing’s solutions empower customers to make decisions without the financial barriers traditionally associated with big-ticket items. 

Boost Customer Loyalty 

The ease and convenience of a lease-to-own option fosters positive customer experiences, leading to repeat business and long-term loyalty. Satisfied customers not only return for their future needs but also become brand advocates, fueling organic growth through word-of-mouth referrals.
