What rental equipment register does

Rental Equipment Register (RER) is a B2B trade publication serving the equipment rental industry, operating as a vertical brand within Endeavor Business Media, a private business-to-business media company. RER's editorial coverage targets owners and managers of equipment rental companies (primarily construction and DIY equipment), with secondary audiences among equipment manufacturers and industry analysts tracking a $70 billion+ U.S. equipment rental market.

RER produces a diversified content portfolio anchored by a bimonthly print and digital magazine (most recent issue May/June 2026), the annual RER 100 ranking of the world's largest rental companies, an email newsletter, sponsored white papers, live and on-demand webinars, a leadership section (RER Leaders), and an industry job board/classifieds marketplace. Distribution is multi-channel: rermag.com, digital edition via mydigitalpublication.com, subscription fulfillment via Dragonforms, and active social media profiles on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. RER is co-branded with Baird on a quarterly rental industry revenue sentiment survey and cross-links with affiliated Endeavor brands Construction Equipment and Roads & Bridges, forming a cross-vertical media network.

The business model is classic B2B trade media: magazine subscriptions, display and classified advertising (including recruitment listings), sponsored white papers, and gated research/ebook downloads (e.g., RER 100 eBook). No pricing, revenue, or headcount figures are publicly disclosed, and RER has no mobile app, public API, or documented AI/ML capabilities. Geographic focus is North America (USA) with global digital distribution.
