Cesar Vargas and Noa Olcha sat down with Richie Kidwell, the President of the Restoration Association of Florida. They go on to discuss two new bills (SB2D and SB4D) that will change the way you do business!
We talked about how these bills single out Florida contractors. They restrict them from being able to perform standard marketing tactics and grow their business.
From the Restoration Association of Florida website:
Richie Kidwell became a business owner at a very young age. He started his own business in his 20’s while also pursuing his higher education goals. His first businesses provided pest control and landscaping services while also performing home inspections. During this time, Richie received his bachelor’s degree in Business Management and later his Master’s degree in Business Administration from the University of Phoenix.
In 2013, Richie started Air Quality Assessors, which provides air quality evaluation services and is currently located in 6 major Florida cities. These included Orlando, Jacksonville, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Naples, and Panama City! Mr. Kidwell is a Florida licensed mold assessor, a Florida licensed mold remediator, and a Florida certified operator for termite and WDO. His company is licensed as a Florida-licensed engineering firm.
He is also certified through the National Environmental Training Institute to teach mold assessment and mold remediation classes.
