Case Study: Paul Davis Restoration achieves $400/month in payroll savings and lower insurance premiums with Verizon Connect

Verizon Connect Helps Paul Davis Restoration Cut Wasteful Spending

Paul Davis Restoration of Boston South, led by Owner and President John Gugliotta, faced hidden fleet and labor costs—paid time lost to daily Dunkin’ Donuts stops, payroll discrepancies, idling, and high insurance premiums—after disappointing experiences with other systems. To address this, they installed Verizon Connect GPS fleet tracking software on their 20 vehicles to get reliable, real-time visibility into crew movements.

Using Verizon Connect, Gugliotta monitored vehicles 24/7 and cut waste across the business: he stopped roughly $400/month in paid coffee breaks, achieved a 40% reduction in insurance premiums (from about $70–$80K/year) after a loss-control review, recovered $800 by correcting a two-hour payroll overstatement, and documented an hour of idling that allowed docking pay. Verizon Connect’s unobtrusive installation and continuous tracking produced measurable gains in productivity and profits.
