The Front Porch

Melissa Christensen, a Support Solutions Engineer at Point of Rental, shares her journey from literal dancing to the metaphorical dance of the rental industry. She recounts a 25-year rental-industry career, including joining LiftWorks as the second employee, working long hours to help grow it into a 75-person business, and using early manual and fax-based processes before software modernization. Melissa explains her move to Point of Rental, her role helping premier customers, her belief in relationships, extensive volunteering including a COVID “sprinkle” pay-it-forward group, and shares favorite Chicago spots and personal reflections.

What is The Front Porch?

The Front Porch is where you'll learn about rental leaders in and outside of Point of Rental, how they got to where they are today and a little bit about the person outside of the industry. If you'd like to be a guest on the porch, email marketing@pointofrental.com. If you're in the rental industry, we'd love to talk to you - and because this isn't a business endeavor, it's free. We just want to share your story.
