Disaster Podcaster S5: EP09: The Independent Restorer Playbook with Russ Harlow

Описание: Stop Playing Their Game | Disaster Podcaster

What happens when carriers shift the burden of documentation, dictate pricing, and leave restorers waiting 90 days or more to get paid?

In this episode of Disaster Podcaster, Toby sits down with Russ Harlow, owner of Reliable Remediation and an outspoken voice for independent restorers. Russ has written powerfully about the gap between RIA rhetoric and the daily reality of contractors and, more importantly, he’s implemented a playbook like the Client Onboarding program from Restoration Advisers for how restorers can stop playing the carrier’s game and take back financial control.

From contracts and deposits to abandoning Xactimate, Russ shares the practical steps his company has taken to restore independence, cash flow, and dignity in the restoration profession.
This isn’t about griping. It’s about building businesses that serve clients first and showing that independence isn’t just possible, it’s necessary.

If you’ve ever felt like an unpaid data-entry clerk for the insurance industry, this conversation is for you.
