August 2007

Hello Again,

Our recent BT Agile training days in July really went down a storm, both venues were well attended and the sales and technical training was delivered by both BT RedCare and SMS/NMS staff.

For those of you who could not make the seminars, click here to watch the streaming videos.

In addition to sales and technical training on BT Agile we have also held special promotional days supporting our Premier Installers, enabling them to participate in upgrade campaigns for both Fire & Security installations. This is across a range of products depending on the campaign, all that we ask is that we can use the Premier Installers database to generate and convert sales leads for which we will reward by paying a commission.

Due to resource issues there are approx 50 campaigns that can be run at any one time depending on whether it is a Fire or Security installation, however again for those who could not make the open day, please contact Rod Wilson for Fire campaigns on RodW@southernmonitoring.co.uk or for Security campaigns PaulC@southernmonitoring.co.uk, both Rod & Paul will be delighted to discuss with you how we can help to grow your business.

August sees the return of our corporate day on the Tall Ships on the Solent; this was so well received last year that we have done it again, but with our new sponsor BT RedCare, even bigger. Leaving Gun Wharf Quay at 1000hrs for a fun packed day of food and sailing, the ship returns at 1800hrs for BBQ and party time in the evening until 2200hrs, a day not to missed!

The day has proven to be so popular that we are looking at holding a subsequent day in September for those who for various reasons could not make it in August; again we will look to post the day on the website sometime in September.

The new build of NMS is underway as the ARC relocates to Altrincham on a new business park. When completed later in the year, both SMS & NMS will be adding an extension of scope to it’s Intruder, Fire and CCTV certification to include tracking as an SOC (Secure Operating Centre). So we will be an ARC, a RVRC and a SOC, don’t you just love acronyms?

Bye for now,

Steve
