College Pro Painters Announces New Safety Tip Program for Student Managers and Painters

College Pro Painters, a home exterior painting company, announced a new safety tip program for student managers and painters. The program will be made available through the company’s cell phones via text messaging which is a popular form of communication among college students.

The new safety tip program is an innovative form of communication that the company has developed keeping in mind the safety of student managers and painters.

CEO Tony Valle, who was a student painter himself and became College Pro franchise owner, understands how important it is to be safe while on the job. While trying to find ways to address the company's concern for its franchise managers, he came up with the idea of texting safety tips every Monday morning all through summer. The program is a continuation of the extensive College Pro Painters Safety training which the students are taught before they go on a job site.

In a release, Tony Valle said, "To me, it's a natural evolution in the company's constant push to communicate the importance of safety on the job. Given the demographics of the young people we work with, texting seems the most effective way to get our message across and stress the importance of adhering to job-site safety measures. Along with our student managers and painters doing a great job for our customers, safety is the company's number one concern."

Texting provides an instant form of communication which is popular among young people. Valle further stated, "And since we are a company centered around youth, we feel that promoting our message through texting is a good way to stay in touch and keep these young people safe."

College Pro is a North American student painting and window cleaning company which has been in business for 40 years. The company has been providing residential painting and window cleaning services during summer months within local communities. Student franchise managers and general managers constantly participate in charity events and in donated services and have successfully helped in generating over $900,000 to improve community spaces and housing in underprivileged areas across Canada and the United States. The company's core business philosophy which focuses on, 'together, realizing potentials,” has been its main drive to mentor and challenge students to become successful community and business leaders.
