Nov 14, 2019

Introducing PLP’s new video series Distribution Tips and Tricks.

Distribution Tips and Tricks is available for viewing on PLP’s website, social media platforms, and YouTube channel.

The first episode features tips on how to properly subset Armor Rods, a fitting start to the series seeing as how the Armor Rod was PLP’s very first product, invented by company founder Thomas Peterson in 1947.
