“You can talk about your problems with other business owners [in your local area], but to get specific about framing challenges with somebody who really understands them is fun, and very useful. You get useful conversations that will trigger an idea or push us in a particular direction to help us solve some problems.”

“Customers are impressed when we hand them a copy [of FrameSAFE]; they are absolutely amazed we are doing this,” King says. “It’s a huge draw for them when they see us following safety protocols. It’s one of the reasons we stay extremely busy.”
