"If you don't invest very much, then failure doesn't hurt much and success isn't very exciting."
CollegeBookRenter.com (CBR) is an online college textbook rental company dedicated to saving customers up to 85% on college textbooks. This operation includes approximately 21,450 square feet in warehouse space, 1,000 square feet in administrative office and 2,000 square feet in a newly renovated customer service area.
Founded in early 2009 and funded through seed capital previously provided by private investors, College Book Renter has grown into one of the largest and most rapidly growing online textbook rental companies in the nation.
In 2010, C.A. Jones Management Group's wholesale textbook company, South Eastern Book Company, made an equity investment in CollegeBookRenter.com. While SEB specializes in wholesale textbooks and textbook distribution, CBR has established itself as a major player in the textbook rental industry. These complementary companies share a common goal: to provide thousands of college students around the country with affordable new and used textbooks, and to remain ahead of the curve on textbook market trends.
