It’s not all work for Brian!!!
For Storm Smart’s 2011 Christmas party, the employees of Storm Smart presented Brian with a gift certificate to the Richard Petty Driving Experience. 
Brian’s fastest lap was greater than 134 MPH and said it reminded him of driving across alligator alley. Upon his return, he personally thanked everyone for the gift certificate and is looking forward to hearing from NASCAR as to when he starts. 
We are proud to announce that the first quarter of 2012 has been the best quarter we have had since 2006! We normally do not start seeing an increase in sales until we get well into hurricane season. This is strongly due to our very talented staff that works diligently every day to make Storm Smart the leader within our industry.
People like Mike Duggan who along with his team of customer service reps create lead after lead for each of our Territory Managers to meet with home owners in SW Florida. To each of our Territory Managers who are the best trained team of men and women in our industry. We would not have the record sales without the way they make each and every customer feel as though they have the best person giving them the best advice on how to protect their homes in case of an emergency.
People like Hilda Provost who handles all of the scheduling for every one of our hundreds of projects each month. This is not a small task. Hilda has to magically make every customer feel as though their job is the most important and meet the deadline that they need.
We truly believe that if you take care of the customer that they will take care of you. This is why our #1 form of advertising is our customer referrals. Our referrals far out perform any of our other advertising to a tune of 43% of our income. This is huge! And can only come from superior customer service, follow up and customer satisfaction which leads to them recommending us to their neighbors, friends and family.
Get a piece of mind. Join our family of over 60,000 satisfied customers by relying on a company you can trust! Be Safe… Be Smart… Storm Smart.
Record Sales & Wholesale Expansion
In today’s tough economy you have heard of the many challenges that companies are facing. We have not been immune to those challenges. We work our hardest everyday to overcome each obstacle with integrity and character. We have a “Zero Tolerance Policy” towards poor customer service. We truly believe that when you take care of your customer they will take care of you.
This is why we are proud to announce that we have had one of the best sales quarters in the past 5 years. We solely contribute this to the dedication and hard work of the almost 120 employees that work here and our loyal customers that keep referring our name. So we want to thank all of our loyal customers and each and every one of The Smart Companies team. Thank you!
Due to the record sales that we have been experiencing Brian Rist has decided to really take another look at our wholesale division. He has decided to reinvest and bring on another talented individual by the name of Greg Slaydon. Greg is a seasoned manufacturing rep that has been selling storm protection throughout the United State’s high velocity hurricane zones for many years.
Our mission is to make sure that everyone has the ability to obtain our lifesaving Storm Catcher screen to protect their family and homes. If you are a window, shutter business owner and would like more information on our wholesale pricing for Storm Catcher Screen. Please contact Kim Trapp (239-938-1000) at our home office and she will make sure that you get set up with one of our wholesale applications.
February Coolest Job
Once again David Gilbert has been nominated for selling the coolest job. To us it’s not always the most elaborate job that counts, even though we have thousands of them. It’s really the experience of the families that let us into their homes to help them protect what is so dear to them.
This job was done in Colonial Country Club in Fort Myers. We often protect your entire home but in this case installing 2 Motorized Storm Catcher screens we not only protected their lanai, but extended their living space. They chose a Bone colored screen trimmed in White matching the aesthetics of the home’s exterior. Now they have another room added to their home which gives them privacy and allows them to sit outside when they want in any type of weather.
“How do you spell total satisfaction… STORM SMART that’s how!!”
John and Janet G.
The job was installed by Shane Wise. Shane is only 28, but has been working here as a full time installer for 8 years. He is one of our most talented installers who have won many coolest job installations. The Gatecliff’s raved about how clean he was all the way through, then how educating he was when he was finished showing them how to use the remote controllers.
Nice Job David and Shane for taking care of the Gatecliff’s from start to finish.
New Territory Manager
The Smart Companies is proud to announce our new sales consultant, Bob Logan, who will be taking over part of the Collier Territory. Although he is new to our company, he is not new to the shutter industry! He has been selling shutters, windows and doors in SW Florida for many years.

Another new addition to our growing company is Greg Slaydon, another experienced sales person. He will be increasing our sales in the Wholesale division. Greg is a seasoned manufacturing rep that has been selling storm protection throughout the United States for many years. We are excited to have both men as part of The Smart Company family.
