Expert at SHOWCASE 2004 to Address Insurance Liability Woes

At the upcoming SHOWCASE 2004, an expert in the insurance industry will address the difficulties that builders are experiencing in finding and paying for general liability insurance in today’s tough marketplace.

At the invitation of the Building Systems Councils, Bob Robinson of Illinois-based Captive Resources will present "Introduction to Captive and Alternative Insurance Options" on Tuesday, Nov. 2, from 1:30-3:00 p.m. Robinson will provide an overview of captive insurance programs and offer some alternatives to traditional methods of insuring your company.

Several educational breakout sessions are scheduled during the conference, with topics including: earning profits through the sales of options and upgrades; the International Code Council's new Log Construction Standards; and motivating your workforce when money is scarce.

The easiest & most affordable way to increase your productivity.
