Sammy Follows: Alert 360 breaks ground on security retail experience center

Top-Rated home and business security company to offer hands-on experience for consumers interested in installing security or automation devices.

Alert 360, one of the nations’ largest providers of home and business security and automation, has broken ground in Tulsa on a new go-to-market concept – the Alert 360 Retail Experience Center.

The Alert 360 Retail Experience Center will allow Tulsa consumers to enjoy user-friendly, hands-on experience with some of the best home security, business security, and smart home solutions available. For convenience, Alert 360 is locating the center on one of the highest traffic corners in Tulsa, at the site of a former gas station. The company will create an inviting space for current and potential Alert 360 customers to view, interact with, and design an infinite number of options in home and business security, automation, and IoT (Internet of Things).

Voted as a Best Home Security Provider and awarded a Best Places to Work in Oklahoma for four consecutive years, Alert 360 has provided award-winning security services to thousands of Tulsa home and business owners for nearly a half-century.

“With the integration of home and business security systems with automation, smart devices, and smartphones, our services have become commonplace and popular especially among Tulsa’s tech-savvy home and business owners,” said Don Fuson, general manager, Alert 360 Tulsa. “Home and business owners most often use our free mobile app to view, connect with, and manage their homes or workplaces when they can’t be in two places at once, so it makes sense to provide a convenient location for people on-the-go to stop and visit with us.

“Today’s security solutions – from security cameras, doorbell cameras and smart locks to automated lights and entertainment systems – are easily operated with the tap on a keypad, phone, or Apple Watch. Our new Alert 360 security retail space will provide a place for security consumers to experience this and more,” Fuson added. “We chose a high-traffic space that would allow customers who are interested in security or home automation to stop by, easily park, and visit.”

At Alert 360, we support more than 75 different IoT and security products and there is no better way to show our capabilities than in person. Additionally, as a Tulsa-based home and business security company, this is an ideal place to launch our first combined retail and branch location, which can be emulated across our national footprint.”

The retail center will contain a more robust version of Alert 360’s Mobile Experience Centers, which were launched in 2018 and have been successful in demonstrating the many benefits of today’s and future security and automation products to thousands of consumers. As a top 5 home security company in the nation, Alert 360 partners with global technology providers to continually develop and offer home security and business security services that create a better experience for consumers, including this new retail center.

“Today more than ever, tech-based companies especially need to adapt to the changing competitive landscape and have the courage to innovate with different go-to-market strategies. While we have focused significant marketing on the digital front at Alert 360, there is nothing like a consumer being able to touch, feel, and try our security products in person and participate in a demonstration with an Alert 360 security and automation expert,” said Richard Ginsburg, president and CEO, Alert 360.

Alert 360’s new Retail Experience Center in Tulsa also will have an open-air event space. In this space, the company plans to host community events and open houses, sharing valuable security tips, crime prevention solutions, and support of local Tulsa charitable efforts. The Alert 360 Retail Experience Center is scheduled to open in the third quarter of 2020, with a showcase of new Alert 360 products and services developed in conjunction with the company’s technology partners from around the world. W Design is serving as architects for the project.

“We are honored to be a part of Alert 360’s growth and to collaborate on the visual branding of the company’s new location at 61st & Sheridan,” said Weldon Bowman, founder and principal, “It’s important to us to re-purpose Tulsa’s existing architecture by creating a unique experience for Alert 360’s customers, as well as the general public.”

In Oklahoma and beyond, Alert 360 provides a full line of home security, business security, energy management, and home automation services. These products and services include wireless security systems, a free mobile app, wireless home security cameras, HD video surveillance, access control, smart thermostats, water leak detection devices, doorbell cameras, monitored heat and carbon monoxide detectors and more. Alert 360’s certified security technicians also offer professional installation or integration of smart home devices, such as sprinkler systems, sound systems, Amazon Echo and Google Home.
