SECURE+ Showcases Enhanced Services
Using the Internet to improve business credibility can be a double-edged sword. Consumers can gather information endlessly online and yet we’re constantly reminded that not everything you read on the Internet is true. The Electronic Security Association created a new website to give credible information to consumers about enhanced security services. The new SECURE+ initiative aims to promote enhanced services through education, marketing and funding. The site features a consumer gateway that leads to information about product categories, industry awards and a find-an-integrator-near-you feature. There is also an integrator gateway on the site for those who want to join the program. As ESA’s executive director and chief executive officer, Merlin Guilbeau, stated, it is important to showcase the range of services ESA member companies have been providing for quite some time.
