December 2009
TES-timonial: ARC - Advanced Remediation & Construction, LLC - Greater Greenville Area, SC

One of the advantages of owning a TES unit is the having the opportunity and support from TES Drying System to have CEC classes for adjusters and agents. Continuing Education Credit classes are one of the biggest marketing tools you can provide to get in front of the adjusters and agents. Gary Van Dyne the owner of ARC restoration out of Greenville, S.C. took advantage of this great opportunity on October 15, 2009. ARC Restoration held this event at the local Hampton Inn. During the CEC class when the group takes a break, the restorer shows the adjusters and agents the TES equipment and other tools the restoration company uses for their business. Basically, it is an opportunity to show off to the adjusters and agents what they use for mitigation jobs.

What was amazing with this CEC class, the Hampton Inn where ARC restoration held the class, actually had a flood the day before the CEC class. Now because Gary with ARC restoration had discussed with the hotel manager what kind of class they were going to have, the hotel manager called ARC restoration and said you don't need to do a demo for the adjusters because we actually have a flood in our hotel and need your company to dry out the flooded rooms.

Gary stated "we couldn't have asked for a better opportunity to demo to the adjusters how the TES system worked." During the presentation when we took a little trip to the flooded rooms, the adjusters were just AMAZED at how quiet the equipment was and that they were very impressed with how the equipment worked.

One of the several comments we heard from the 38 adjusters and agents that attended the seminar, was that they had heard about the TES system before the seminar and was very happy that they attended the class to learn more about the TES and Direct Heat Drying equipment. Another comment made from one of the adjusters was that they wouldn't mind paying for TES if they were able to close their files in half the time. Overall Gary from ARC restoration stated he was very happy with the CEC class, the support from the TES representative John Otero, especially since John helped work on the flood job with Gary and his son GL till 2:30am.

If you own a TES or are looking at owning a TES unit and are interested in holding CEC classes, please call John Otero at 727-657-1563 and he can explain how the CEC program works.

Another marketing tool that TES provides is an 11 minute marketing DVD that is customized with your company name and logo at the beginning of the presentation and at the end.

The DVD explains how the TES system works, the advantage of Direct Heat Drying and contains testimonials from actual TES customers.

If you are interested in ordering the NEW customizable 6 page TES booklet, please visit tesdryingsystem.com/booklet or visit tesdryingsystem.com/dvd for the customizable marketing DVD. You may also email info@tesdryingsystem.com for additional information.

We are also offering to assist you in holding a CEC (Continuing Education Credits) class for adjusters and agents in your market. Right now our TES representatives are approved in many states and if we are not approved we can assist you in getting a CEC class approved in your state. Holding CEC classes is the #1 marketing tool to get in front of adjusters and agents. Usually we have on average 20 adjusters and agents at these classes.

TES will also help you market your CEC class. How this program works is when you purchased your TES, you were given a list of adjusters and agents within a 50 mile radius of your office. Now we provide a customizable CEC postcard to use as a direct mail piece for the adjusters and agents. We will also mail out the direct mail piece for your company. If you are interested in having a CEC class for your company in your market, please contact John Otero and he can explain in more detail how this great marketing program works.

Reets Drying Academy

Another class of students just completed the World's Fastest Drying System course at Reets Drying Academy. Attendees received specialized hands-on training to maximize the TES system. The flood house is unique as it gives students the opportunity to learn the techniques for the fastest drying of carpet, pad, wood sub floor, ceramic, stone, wood flooring, cabinets, walls, insulation, crawlspace, and concrete. Everyone was able to experience drying a structure in 1/3 of the time, and left armed with the tools they need to get out and take charge of their market with this superior drying method.
