Top March Stories: Much-needed Coronavirus Information

By Karen L. Edwards, RCS Editor.

Here’s what’s trending on RoofersCoffeeShop® this past month.

Last time I wrote about the trending stories on RCS it was about the International Roofing Expo and Journey performing at the SRS Distribution party/fundraiser. Fast forward to today and things have changed a lot. Most of our industry events have been canceled - trade shows, conferences, Roofing Day and more.

Thank goodness we can still come together as an industry in an online capacity and RoofersCoffeeShop provides the perfect platform. While the top stories in March were not all about dealing with Coronavirus, six of the top 10 were related to worksite shutdowns, Family First Coronavirus Response Act, contract provisions to combat it, and how to run your business virtually.

All of these articles provide important information in an easy-to-understand format. Since most of these published a month ago, information may have changed. So please read through the top stories below but be sure to visit our coronavirus page for the most up-to-date resources and information.

Once again, I am including the #6 – 10 spots because they were all so close to being in the top five. If you didn’t get the chance to read the articles, follow the links below to check them out.
