Stutzman, who has over 15 years of experience in both franchising and the rent-to-own business, will be responsible for helping grow the ColorTyme store count by bringing on new franchise owners.

Prior to joining ColorTyme, Stutzman was the Owner and President of Competition Consulting, a franchise consulting firm which focused on the development of national franchisors' systems whose clients include a number of high-profile companies in the rent-to-own and retail fields. Previously, he was the Vice President of Franchise Development for Premier Rental-Purchase.
