Did You Know?


Did you know in the State of IL the average roofing company does only 1/2 mil in sales per year and has 6 employees. http://spinotew1.commerce.state.il.u...c?OpenDocument

Does that match your guys businesses? I thought the company I work for is small but we tripled the average sales and doubled the average employees.

Re: Did You Know?


Interesting statistics. I wonder if the size of the company has anything to do with longevity. In our area the small guys are plenty, but few last more than 2-3 years under the same name. If you look at the yellow pages of seven years ago (when I got into the business) and compare that to those advertising in this year's directory, less than half are in both.
