It’s International Accounting Day, and we’re celebrating because our Accounting Team has seen plenty of changes in the last few years, but has finally gotten into their groove. Now, the outcome of those changes has led to our best, brightest, and most successful Accounting Team yet! The TMX Finance® Family of Companies Accounting Department initially resided at our corporate headquarters in Savannah, GA. Once we started experiencing intense growth, it was clear that the department also needed room to grow, and was moved to our new Dallas, TX corporate office. And there they have thrived! Currently we are almost fully …
Roxanne Powell – TitleMax General Manager, Alabama I decided to join the Army National Guard after my sister deployed to Afghanistan. When I went to her deployment ceremony, I witnessed the selfless service of my sister and her brothers-and-sisters in arms. I saw the dedication and the comradery of soldiers that gave up their freedom to protect ours and that is what made me want to join. I joined because I wanted to serve my country, I wanted to do something to help others, and give back to my community. Joining the military is what has made me into the …
Submitted by: Kevin Godwin – District Director of Operations, Georgia I joined the Company in 2004 as a General Manager (“GM”). In just four years, I worked hard and was named a District Director of Operations (“DDO”) and four years later, I earned my next promotion to a Regional Director of Operations position, leading at the time, the largest region in the Company. However, two years later family issues led to me stepping back into a different role to be able to better assist my family. During that time, I buried one child, graduated another from college, and recently adopted …
Submitted by: Ashley Snider, Senior Recruiting Manager, Store Strategies Every company is searching for their next top performer, and with today’s tight labor market, now is the best time to diversify your candidate pool. Hiring college graduates is a great way to bring employment opportunities to those that are seeking continued development, and could be an incredibly wise long-term decision for your company. One of the biggest hesitations companies have about hiring college graduates is the lack of real-world experience. However, “experience” shouldn’t be thought of as only work or on-the-job experience. After all, college graduates may have gained non-traditional …

Submitted by: Tammy Bonser, InstaLoan Customer Service Representative Sarasota, FL Let’s be honest, when people think of Down Syndrome many of them immediately think of chunky people stuck in institutions, but I’m proud to say that is not true. I found out my son, Dale, was going to be born with Down Syndrome when I was 30 weeks pregnant. I was only 28 years old and had to get ready to raise a child who would need just a little more help than most babies. He came home from the hospital on oxygen, with a feeding tube, and required constant …
Submitted by: Laura Fain, TitleMax General Manager “Often it’s the deepest pain which empowers you to grow into your highest self.” This quote has resonated with me throughout the years. I always wondered that if I was never a domestic violence survivor, if I would be as determined and courageous enough to go through life with the highest expectations for myself. It wasn’t until almost dying that I truly understood the power that I personally had to be whomever I wanted to be. I am not regretful of my experience; in fact, I owe my success to my experience. Without …
