As the Domestic and International Sales Manager for waveGUARD™ Corporation, the leading worldwide provider of autonomous wildfire spray systems for homeowners and commercial businesses, I have always embraced the opportunity to learn new skills, and there is a plethora of scenarios where I engage with homeowners and businesses about the benefits of our systems. I’m thrilled to be in this position because being able to understand the challenges homeowners and commercial business owners face, by listening and learning about their concerns and fears regarding exterior wildfires and the resulting damaging and potential effects on them, I’m able to offer them a solution. Insurance companies’ cancellations of homeowner and business policies have also driven some of their fears as well, and I listen to educate them on the many ways to mitigate their properties for more positive insurance acceptance and the resulting ‘Peace of Mind’ they feel when those options are fully understood.Internationally, the same challenges exist however I typically deal with their US Commerce counterparts initially, who assist us in navigating through their rules and regulations in order to do business with their individual countries. It’s fulfilling to know, that we at waveGUARD™ can create the same positive effects in other exterior wildfire-challenged countries, as we have here in the United States.
