About Us

APRTR MKT is an extension of the APRTR brand. We initially started MKT as a resource to help promote local artists and businesses that were unsure of how to properly market themselves, however, we’d intended to keep our resources under the parent company name as we weren’t sure of what to call this portion of the business yet. It wasn’t until 2018 that we’d expanded APRTR into APRTR MKT, APRTR DSGN, and APRTR SEC. Each brand of the APRTR name focuses on different parts of business as a whole. We hope that by providing quality resources both free and paid, we can continue to build more successful businesses.

APRTR was founded in 2016, and has been providing individuals and businesses the resources they need to be successful ever since. Originally located in Houston, APRTR has moved on to become a platform that is strictly online with no physical location or limitations by jurisdiction. While there are not currently any plans to reopen a brick & mortar location, APRTR does pop-up shops/events in many major cities throughout the U.S. and eventually the rest of the world.

At APRTR we have many philosophies, especially those concerning ones identity, whether it be for business, as an artist, or as an individual, identity is very important and is at the core of all business philosophy. What makes one business stand out from the next? What makes you as a person stand out from the crowd around you? Will you follow the trends or be the trendsetter? These are questions you should ask yourself when reflecting on why you want to start your business. A man once said:

“The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.”

- Friedrich Nietzsche

This philosophy is at the core of what APRTR is and is very important in understanding what it means to own and run a successful business. For more information about APRTR as a whole, please check out the main site below.
