URC’s Commercial Manager Will Answer Your Questions

I don’t know Jamie or his qualifications, so please don’t take this question personally…

“Does Jamie have to ask Hank Eisengrien for the right answer before he replies?”

Tom,
I think what Dave is trying to say is Hank is a really great person and an asset to the industry. I know that anytime I need questions answered Hank is more than willing to get the information we need.

@TexasRadio:

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

Hank is definitely a great resource.

You’ll find that Jamie is also a great resource when it comes to solutions for the commerical market.

I do know him and you will find him one of the greatest resources you’ll ever meet.

What rate is the commercial business growing for URC compared to the Residential rate?  Do you see commercial growing faster and what products do you see as “Powerhouse Products”?

We have used many of the Universal remote products in conference/board rooms. What product/s do URC feel best suited for “commercial” applications?

The hard thing about selling corporate clients on touch screens is how do you actually demonstrate the features that they care about?

How can URC help me demonstrate automation to corporate customers?

Demonstrate? Are you kidding me?! Get your guns in a row, know what you’re talking about, and then let it fly-

Remember, typically the people/guys making the buying decisions can’t even operate their own home universal remote controls… and that’s after they’ve initially been taught full standard operational procedures upon installation completion.

(Not to mention the other 3 extra phone calls to the dealer because they either can’t remember the logical sequence they were originally taught, or they’re hitting the buttons too fast because they don’t understand what a, “macro,” is and are used to instant gratification from their 20 year old bimbo wives.)

Let’s also not forget, you can successfully teach any assigned single corporate monkey how to operate any system. However, when he/she gets fired, game over even though when properly programmed, even, “Corky,” from, “Life Goes On,” can manage the task.

The original, “leading,” question of how URC can help you out to demonstrate automation, is a, “loaded/trick,” question & simply not fair. You need to be certified by URC in order to purchase & sell their custom products.

Thus, if you don’t know how to program the device, you surely can’t explain how it operates to any client.

As an example, I for one don’t pick up the phone and ask Paradigm to help me sell a pair of speakers…

Happy Holidays

Jamie,

Just curious why URC has decided to jump aboard the commercial sector so late in the game. What advantages do you hope to bring to the market?

We’re trying to expand into commercial and wanna stick with just a few manufacturers..We’ve used URC for our residential installs for 4yrs now and love the product!  Is URC going to have some type of signal switching and distribution solution for commercial integration?
