After A Lifetime of Learning Why "Roofing Ain't Easy, Son!" - Here's Why I Am Grateful For This Industry As my family comes together for another Thanksgiving, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey roofing has put us on. It's with that gratitude that I share our story and the exciting developments at RAES this Thanksgiving. Roofing has not only provided a good life for my parents, my aunts and uncles, brothers, cousins, and friends; it has truly become a pillar of prosperity for us. It’s through roofing that I got my first work experience, afforded college, played on travel sports teams, and lived with relative comfort and security growing up. Professionally, it’s taught me a lot of lessons about life and business, and has provided a way to give back to the community. I am grateful for the opportunity that roofing provides to those with a “get-it-done-and-done-right” attitude; and I’m thankful for the opportunity that I have with RAES to make their lives a little easier. As the production manager for my father's roofing company, I witnessed first-hand the problems that a growing company encounters. I founded RAES to provide a proven process for success. From modest beginnings as a simple system to send photos and notes back and forth with crews, RAES has developed over the last 4 years into a comprehensive business management platform tailored to the specific needs of roofing and exterior contractors. This Thanksgiving, RAES is extending our gratitude beyond business success. We're hosting "RAES The Community," a special holiday food drive in our hometown where our roofing clients will go door-to-door collecting donations for local food banks. It's our way of giving back and making a positive impact in the communities that have supported us. If you're local to the area, please consider donating. You can schedule your doorstep pick-up here. In the spirit of giving, we're excited to announce our Black Friday promotion. Sign up for an annual subscription to the RAES management system, and you'll receive three free months on our platform. It's our way of expressing gratitude for the roofing community that has embraced RAES and made our journey possible. Book your discovery call to see what plan is right for you. As we celebrate this season of gratitude, we remember the roots of our success and the industry that has provided us with so much. Through RAES, we're helping contractors like you experience the same prosperity and ease in your business journey.
