Welcome, Kat Abbott!
The AWaiver family is growing! We’re very excited to bring on industry veteran Kat Abbott as the Sales Director of AWaiver. Kat was born in the UK and moved to Spain in 2004 where she got her first introduction to parasailing. While in Spain, not only did she fall in love with parasailing, but married a parasail captain too. Together they moved to Florida where they joined her husband’s family business, Custom Chutes. As we all know, in water sports there is no such job as “just an office job,” and Kat became skilled in every aspect of the business and water sports industry. She has over 8 years of experience in the tourism industry and has personal experience using AWaiver and Indexic from her time at Yolo Parasail.
Here is what Kat had to say about her experience transitioning to digital waivers with AWaiver.
“When I first started working at Yolo Parasail we took every reservation personally and carried a binder with us 24/7. Every reservation was written down, and that binder was our ONLY way of knowing what the reservations were. Converting to online reservations and electronic waivers was a big step. I asked every question you can imagine, had every concern you can think. Sometimes the hardest part is making the decision to change because once we bit the bullet and changed the benefit was obvious.”
Kat’s firsthand knowledge of transitioning to digital waivers is invaluable and we look forward to helping more tour operators in the water sports, snow, and tourism industries make the switch from paper to digital waivers with AWaiver.
