Who We Work With
At Erwood Group, while we do collaborate with large global and national enterprises, our core focus is on small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs). Our Business Preparedness Solutions and C.A.R.E.S.™ Program, developed by co-founder Keith Erwood, are specifically tailored to help SMBs effectively prepare for and overcome disruptions or disasters.
Our programs are particularly beneficial for businesses with a positive net cash flow and generating six to seven figures in net income, though we frequently assist smaller businesses as well. For instance, we successfully helped a small, family-owned HVAC company recover $30,000 from insurance at no cost to them.
Designed for SMB owners and managers, our programs enable the rapid and efficient implementation of Business Continuity Plans and Programs. These plans protect your business, cash flow, and legacy, ensuring you are well-prepared for any unforeseen events.
We proudly serve a diverse range of industries, including:
- Construction Companies
- Certified Public Accountants (CPAs)
- Credit Unions
- Doctors, Dentists, and Clinics
- Financial Planners and Financial Institutions
- Medical and Non-Medical Spas
- Regional Banks

…and everyone in between.
