JM Resources Wants to Help Wireless Alarm Customers Get Ready for AT&T’s 2G Sunset

There has been a lot of talk since 2012 of AT&T closing down their 2G network in a process called 2G Sunset. In this process AT&T will close down the 2G towers in a series of waves concluding January 1, 2017 with its complete phase out.

If you are like most people, you probably dismissed the information thinking that 2017 is a long way off. But there are some important reasons why you should take notice now to ensure that you do not have any interruption in your alarm service.

As you investigate security system options for your growing business, one of the questions that is likely to surface is whether or not your system should be monitored. On the surface, unmonitored systems are convenient and cost effective, something that is attractive to any business owner. But there are other considerations and the nominal cost of monitoring can end up saving you a bundle, and could even be the element that saves your business.

It is hard to believe, but it was not that long ago that home automation was just a dream and something you would see conceptually in “the home of tomorrow”. Now you can’t go long or far without hearing about or having your life somehow impacted by home automation. It is so much a part of our lives that many people can’t even remember life without it!
Good things are never contained, and the smart home revolution has made it into the workplace, and our lives and our businesses are better for it. Here are some of the ways we love to use home automation to make business even better.

If you have ever wondered if a commercial fire and smoke alarm system was worth having installed, the stark statistics surrounding workplace fires is enough to cause anyone pause for thought. Facts show that a commercial smoke detection system can be the most significant factor in preventing loss of life and property.

Inventory shrinkage cuts far deeper into the bottom line than most retailers and business owners realize. In fact, a recent National Retail Security Study showed inventory shrinkage represents 1.47% of retail revenue.

While it is usually not on our radar until after an unfortunate event, improving safety in the workplace and the home is one of the most urgent issues facing us today. Accidental injury is one of the main causes of ER visits each year, and one of the leading causes of death.

Churches typically think about strife existing outside the church walls and concentrate on helping solve problems that exist in the community and in the world. This is because violence happened somewhere else.

Unfortunately, things have changed dramatically over the last few years.   A 2013 USA Today article about church security recently noted that “the number of deadly episodes at sanctuaries has soared over the last decade, and mass shootings at schools, malls, and movie theaters have left Americans feeling like it could happen anywhere.”

Violence perpetrated against the church is on the rise and while most churches want to improve church security, they are doing it all wrong.

You may have read the recent astonishing Washington Post article reporting that there had been 204 mass shootings 204 days into 2015. The report cites information gleaned from Mass Shooting Tracker, a crowd sourced which tracks the number and location of all gun-related events where 4 or more people are killed or injured.

The affordability of advanced technologies has made video surveillance systems so commonplace that we hardly take notice of them. Nearly everyone recognizes and appreciates the benefits of their use, such as increased safety; and a reduction in theft, vandalism, and violence.

Unquestionably, one of the most valuable tools in crime prevention in the workplace is a quality video surveillance system. Video systems also increase customer and employee safety and can be very helpful in uncovering the course of disputed events. While those reasons alone are benefits no business owner should overlook, research shows that there is an additional advantage of video surveillance systems in the area of employee performance.

Each year there are an estimated 800,000 serious workplace fires in the United States. These fires cause an average of 200 deaths and 5,000 injuries. In addition to the very serious cost to human life, fires also devastate a business. According to studies from the United States Small Business Administration, 90% of businesses fail within two years after experiencing a disaster such as fire, costing a significant loss of jobs.
