i have my two main national accounts i provide cat services to but they were not effected. i do not like to go fishing for work. especially cat work.
when i get the call from one of the accounts for cat work, they usually will give us a "retainer" fee. ie for a cat 5 storm they would get us a $15,000 retainer. that way they dont have to worry or even concern themselves with finding an available company to provide service for them. this has only happen once and it has to be a big market for them.
