Storm Smart Industries, the largest and most innovative hurricane protection company in Southwest Florida combines efforts with Builder’s Care to help out a family in need in the surrounding area. Storm Smart will be supplying and installing accordion shutters to the family’s home to provide theft and storm protection. Storm Smart’s “We Care” program began in 2008 to help families in need during hurricane season.
Ms. Roxanne Roberts, the recipient of the donations, adopted four special needs children- two sibling groups- from the State of Florida. At the time of the first adoption, the children were three and four. On the second occasion, she adopted two sisters who where twelve and sixteen years old. Prior to becoming an adoptive parent, Ms. Roberts began providing full-time care for a 14 year old boy who had cerebral palsy and required total care. He had been institutionalized where she worked and was very attached to her. He still lives with her, and he is now 23 years old. After all of these years caring for others, Ms. Roberts is excited about the upcoming birth of her new child.
Roxanne and family have found a home to live, but it is not “liveable” due to fire damage. Roxanne turned to the Builders Care network for help and Storm Smart’s “We Care” program was notified of her situation. “We are pleased to be able to help Roxanne and her family as a recipient of our “We Care” program, said Brian Rist, Storm Smart Industries, president.

Bradtmiller tries to make it worth-while for people to follow Storm Smart by making his posts informative, ” I follow the 80/20 rule. Eighty percent is storm information and tips and 20% is promotional.”
Many other corporations are following suite such as; Fawcett Memorial Hosptial in Port Charlotte and C2 communications, just to name a few. Devoting time to the internet and developing an online presence is essential to most businesses. It is affordable and really works to reach a larger audience. Social media expert, Murray Izenwasser comments “I don’t know any business now that doesn’t have a website. It’s just for the legitimacy factor now.”
News-Press-February 21, 2009- The News-Press recently reported that the shutter industry is hurting due to decrease business and the past few years of a slow hurricane season. A year ago, a few property insurance companies were forcing owners of upscale homes to put in hurricane protection, but that has started to decline thus hurting such companies as American Shutter Products and New Code Windows and Doors. Storm Smart Industries chief executive officer, Brian Rist said, “our sales are actually up 5% in 2009 and we are building a structure on Plantation Road next to our exisiting facility. Rist said he’s been able to keep going by focusing on customer service. “We really work hard to have satisfied customers, if you take care of your customers, your business will take care of you.”
While others are filing for Chapter 11- Storm Smart stays strong by making customer service number one and is still the leader in the hurricane protection business.
