Michael Pope, President of Safety Technologies, Medina, Ohio, is scheduled to participate on 2 panels at the 2011 Electronic Security Association's Leadership Summit. Pope serves on the A.E. Venture's Advisory Committee which is responsible for hosting this year's Summit.
His first session is titled: Residential Systems Integration - Products, Packaging, Financing Models The seminar discusses moving beyond the alarm monitoring-only model, noting the trend of Homeowners wanting more from design/installation companies including fire, keyless entry and video surveillance on the security side of things along with very marketable, custom products such as multi-room audio, lighting control and surround-sound audio. This session will be moderated by Deborah O'Mara, Editor in Chief, Security Dealer & Integrator Magazine.
Pope will also adress the topic of Information Age Marketing in a Seminar on Thursday, focusing on his use of Social Media and eMarketing methods.
