Coronavirus Pandemic Concerns All of Us

Like everyone, the pandemic concerned us!

As the pandemic began, we were concerned both personally and professionally. Personally, we saw the shortages and limits placed on critical items like toilet paper, sanitizers, and bottled water. They impacted our families directly. Professionally, we were concerned that the health threats, imposed isolations, job losses, and reduced incomes would have a negative impact both on our potential customers and our bottom line.

We watched as stockpiles were purchased. We saw store shelves emptied of our national “go-to” emergency supplies of single-use bottled water. We saw restrictions placed on purchase quantities when they slowly restocked. We knew this would impact everyone, but particularly the elderly, the disabled, the rural, and those in areas at greatest risk of hurricanes and the accompanying floods.

Concerned People Found Us

But as the pandemic progressed, we started receiving calls from people all across the country with genuine concerns: “This showed me we’re simply not ready?” “Are you open?“ Are you still shipping?” “Do you have systems available?”

“Yes, yes, and yes,” we replied.

These weren’t “preppers”, an unfair pejorative applied to many who simply want to be ready and self-reliant. These were people who now realized water is the most important commodity during a crisis and had seen bottled water shortages and restrictions.  The pandemic emphasized this, and they wanted to be permanently prepared.

They knew storms put their water supplies at risk. They knew hurricane season was looming and knew power outages could leave them without water for days. They saw preventative power outages during wildfires that left thousands without power and without water. They had felt the earth quake and were now worried.

The pandemic issued a harsh warning.

Reaching Potential Customers is Hard

Reaching potential customers is an ever-increasing challenge. Everybody, personally and professionally, is inundated with advertising, both print and electronic. It’s easy to end up in the physical or electronic trash. The coronavirus pandemic has exacerbated this, but we persevere.

Emergency water is not sexy, it’s just critical; and we couldn’t be prouder that our focus is making families and business safer, more resilient, more self-reliant, and more prepared.

We’re proud we have programs in place helping disabled veterans through our Water for Warriors.

The Future is Unclear, But We’re Here to Help

What the future holds for the coronavirus pandemic is anyone’s guess. But it is the time of the year when the most frequent and severe storms hit. It’s when the driest conditions occur and wildfires can burn seemingly endlessly.

The pandemic adds a variable that concerns everyone.

We’re ready to help you, those you love, and those you help.

They called us. We are humbled. We thank them all!
