TO DAY THEY HAVE ABOUT 12 “PROFIT CENTERS” THEY FOCUS ON. Access Control, Video, CCTV, Central Station Monitoring, Burglar Alarms, Parking Garage Systems, Intercoms and other Profit Centers. Collectively the Life Safety Industries have a little over 50 “Profit Centers”. This Business under New Leadership at the end of One Year will have over 29 of the 50 Profit Centers up and running. Today they have 25 “Route Sales Trucks “ on the Road Installing and Servicing these Systems. Every time you can add a New Route Sales Truck with a Technician, that mobile unit will produce about $250,000 of annual Sales with a 15% Net or an additional $37,000 to the Bottom Line.

100% OF HIS CUSTOMERS HAVE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS. He is not in the Fire Extinguisher Business, but recently he just added Fire Extinguisher and 6 New Fire Extinguishers Profit Centers to his Life Safety Business. When he has 4 New Route Sales Trucks on the road that will be another Million in sales, I had 17 Trucks on the road just doing Fire Extinguishers for 21,000 Fire Extinguisher Customers. Over a 12 year period I sold 3,000 Monitored Alarms to my Fire Extinguisher Customers that I would not have gotten if we weren’t in The Fire Extinguisher Business. We will be focusing a lot of our Marketing Selling Fire Extinguisher to the Construction Industries, that gets us in the door to get a lot of New Alarm work from those Contractors.

THE SELLER OF THIS BUSINESS OWNES THE 18,000 SQ. FT. BUILDING AND WANTS TO SELL IT FOR $1,600,000. I would suggest that this Building with it’s 24 offices, 3 Conference s 24 offices, 2 Conference rooms, a Training area, large Warehouse, a locksmith shop that specializes in Electronic & New Technologies access control doors. I will suggest Leasing about 10 of the offices and other spaces to Sub-Contractors that do the “Profit Centers” you do not wish to do. These Sub’s will be part of your sales department and SELL your Profit Center that they do not do, but you do, these Sub’s will have a strong “Non-Compete agreement. The Rent that they will pay should pay for your Building cost.

3, RESIDENTIAL ALARM -- A LARGE PROFITABLE GROWTH AREA. The present owner does not like the Residential Market and now installs one or 2 per month for owners of his Commercial Customer Customers homes. Your New Residential sales programs will go up to about 35 systems per month. You already know that when you add a monitored Alarm you are adding a solid value of $1,000 of real equity value to your Business. That is $35,000 of Equity Gain each month or $420,000 for the year. This is a most important area to work on, The New “Wireless” systems can be installed in 2 or 3 hours, one technician in a truck can do 2 Residential systems per day, One Residential Installer can get the job done. What would happen if you came up with New Marketing to Double your Residential Volume???? My Company Beltway Alarms in Beltsville, Md. Was Installing 80 systems per month. This Seller has over 4,000 Commercial Customers that do not have his Residential Alarms, those Commercial Customers have “TEN’s of Thousands” of Employs who all live in homes, “Cross Marketing” will get the job. Done.
