Astagnant business model is not a strategy for growing your business! Conventional methods of doing business are not sustainable over a long-term period. A new generation of roofers is using drones and thermal imaging technology to; differentiate themselves, provide greater customer service, retain a competitive advantage, and grow their business strategically.
Recall the conventional taxi service. What was their business plan to evolve with, and embrace, the emerging mobile app market? Some would argue they had – or at the very least thought they had – a monopoly in the market. So why bother changing how business is run? Well, along came Uber who capitalized on a tech-savvy, mobile app-driven society.
The old ways of business are not working
Conventional methods of inspecting roofs have several disadvantages;
- It presents an inherent danger to employees who are required to physically climb roofs,
- Time-consuming and costly, and
- A major on-going source of loss time injuries and high insurance premiums
Occasionally, companies do not take the necessary precautions or follow safety standards in effort to reduce time and cost. Among other issues, this contributes to a negative perception within the industry. The disadvantages of manual inspections contribute to neglect in preventative maintenance, resulting in larger repair costs and distrust between customers.
A change in the industry
The roofing industry of today is focusing on building trust and providing more value to their customers. They are becoming trusted partners delivering high-level customer service and improved transparency. By making strategic investments in technology, they are adding value to their relationships with their customers. DRONES CYBER SECURITY are helping companies change the ‘standard’ business model by utilizing our unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Drones are a much safer and more comprehensive method to complete roof assessments and provide customers with quality proactive service.
