The Telecomm to AI Connection is clear.

In layman's terms, the fast-paced, high-anxiety environment of hurricane season is felt on all sides.

On one side, local business owners are hyper-focused on heightened redundancy and business continuity. On the other side, Enterprise Account Executives are faced with high-demands, last minute requests and forecasting concerns.

"A key customer I've worked with on this is CoreRX - a local Healthcare Manufacturing plant in Clearwater. They experienced intermittent connectivity issues with their landlines during Hurricane Helene. Fortunately, our team at Frontier was able to provide a cost-effective replacement solution." - Darius McGrew

Instead of just pitching backup circuits and mobile failovers, Darius quickly integrated AI into his outreach strategy - turning storm preparedness into a proactive, data driven campaign.

AI-Powered Outreach and Predictive Planning is driving success.

Right now, using AI-driven analytics, Darius McGrew segments enterprise business customers in Hillsborough, Pinellas and Sarasota County based on 3 key factors:

Risk Zone by Zip Code
Infrastructure Resilience
Historical Outage Patterns

This allows him to tailor storm-readiness packages to each client's specific needs - whether it's a Healthcare Customer in need of uninterrupted bandwidth or a local business needing added redundancy for strategic voice systems.

From Sales to Safety and Beyond

McGrew's work goes beyond the clicks and conversions. His efforts are a testament to sales reps being more than just deal closers. They are community advocates, tech innovators and strategic partners in public safety.

As West Florida braces for another unpredictable hurricane season, one thing is clear: AI can make a positive impact. Especially in the hands of Account Executives like Darius McGrew. We're seeing firsthand it's impact on storm preparedness - what's next?!
