You’d never expect people to be so happy to help with the dirtiest of jobs, but it doesn’t matter if your emergency is due to water damage, flood damage, sewage or mold growth — Anchor Restoration is in business to serve you when you need it the most.
Even though national franchises and large restoration firms offer an ever-increasing variety of restoration services, ranging from crime scene cleanup to fire restoration, Kristine Rudarmel believes it is impossible to be the absolute best at every restorative service. She has narrowed the focus of her company, Anchor Restoration, in order to pursue perfection specializing in all types of flood damage, water damage and mold remediation.
In order to offer the best level of service to her customers, Rudarmel goes the extra mile to continue learning about business, continually adding to her skills. “Kris has been an active client of the Women’s Business Center of Utah since 2011. She has been a client, training and event attendee and super supporter of our center for many years. She has also received assistance from the Salt Lake SBDC for market research while in the Goldman Sachs 10K small-business program,” said Deb Bilbao, a business consultant at the WBC.
Bilbao nominated Rudarmel for the SBA Utah Small Business Person of the Year and she was selected for the Community-Minded Small Business of the Year category.
“When we created our company, we knew we wanted to base it on values of ethics and integrity. We were aware that a person who has worked hard to develop a high standard of integrity will likely carry these concepts into their professional and personal lifestyle,” said Rudarmel.
Rudarmel continually works on improving herself and loves to share her personal development strategies with her team. “As we all know, our personal developments stretch over into our business dealings. My goal is to inspire and empower others. I know I can’t keep every employee but I hope I enrich their future lives with my motivational words,” she said.
To Rudarmel, “it is critical to define your own success in order to reap the payoff of running an operation. Success is understanding exactly what you want to create in the world, however you define those things. It is most definitely a process. And you have to trust the process.”
Rudarmel sees entrepreneurial success as setting the standard for the industry, setting your brand up for success, setting the example for others and setting a culture for your company.
