sjsturner Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Res's. Just binned 250 of those. Roughly 50/50 looking at the brief info but dd will show the real numbers. There are quite a few little arcs on the market. I can't name specific companies but I'll share with you some of the sales spin they put in the acquisition documents that will make you chuckle. Looked at one today who was quoted as market leader in their region which sounded encouraging until you then look at turnover of £140k 140???Market leader in dummy bellbox instals!

goncall Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I get the vibe from trusted sources that a lot of the ones that moved to in house monitoring like the councils are considering just giving up and returning to sub it back out. Wage bill must be a killer. you take over council employees,that would be fun...

matthew.brough Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 You wouldn't believe some of the **** they out. Read one the other day, all our clients have the latest in remote technology on all systems. Oh good I thought, already udlable. They meant remote reset! you take over council employees,that would be fun... No employees. In the current acquisitions I don't want the staff except engineering. For the arcs I don't need more bodies, just contracts. www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/35504-watchdog-23-10-13/page/8/#findComment-350974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
