APR Supply Co. has announced that it has partnered with Podium to offer its contractors a solution to improve their customer experience with award-winning interaction management.

Podium is a communication and payments platform that uses the simple power of texting to empower businesses to get more reviews, convert website traffic, collect payments, and send promotions.

"We have been listening to our customers challenges and pain points over the years and have developed strategic partnerships with service providers that can help to solve these challenges, without each contractor having to do all of the leg-work and research on their own."
