Welcome to the Restoration Domination Podcast Episode 035 With your Host, Rico Garcia Jr.  In this episode, we are joined by the Owner of Reets Drying Academy, Jeremy Reets.  We discussed the evolution and lack of standards when it comes to the safety practices of the industry, all of the different educational classes and learning styles that Reets Drying Academy has to offer, company culture and so much more!

Biggest Takeaways:
1.  The Restoration Industry needs more standardized training on safety protocols.
2. Not doing your own calculations on your jobs is costing you over $15k a year.
3. You need to get training specific to estimating and how to set up and pre-negotiate your estimate in a way that gets you paid more and faster.
