There are two unshakeable facts that determine the direction of the security industry. The first is that digital communications have redefined the concept of business risk.
Let’s get personal here — 2020 has certainly been a challenging year. So many things are in turmoil; disruption and uncertainty abound in our personal and professional lives. Business projects plans, and the future, are up in the air. How can we cope and survive, maybe even grow and thrive?
Given the uncharted and challenging times the world is experiencing right now, the looming question in many people’s minds is, “What can we do to help our company survive?” The answer is simple and focuses on the treasure you already have: clients.
The coronavirus is impacting business operations and sales in the security industry. It is also dramatically influencing consumer behavior and spending. Parks Associates just released insights based on this summer’s consumer surveys, and found that while spending cuts due to COVID-19 affect most product categories, consumers continue spending on technology for productivity and entertainment.
Living in today’s uncertain world brings many challenges and changes every day, but it also brings new opportunities for those willing to expand their business offerings and learn new skills. Security companies are trusted by owners to protect and care for their families through system installation and monitoring.
We’ve all been there, working long hours to get projects done, eager to mark them off the list. But, often one or more minor things still need attention to actually wrap up a project. Have you ever said, “It doesn’t really matter right now if the cables at the panel are organized and labeled,” or “instructions aren’t written or given to the owners, but that’s OK, we will come back when there’s more time?”
It is my hope that you and your team are doing well in these times of uncertainty, and I extend my thoughts and prayers to those who have been impacted by the pandemic
There’s a technology revolution coming our way that will alter the use of electricity as we know it. It has the potential to disrupt the construction, remodel, retrofit and installation industries. In particular, it will change the game for security companies — not only with their product offerings, but also installation processes and services.
The plea is the same for every skilled trade industry: “We need qualified workers.” And it’s been going on for a while. It’s not just in the security industry; this is true for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and construction workers.
