I agree. The problem is, this is not a new solution.
It is a proprietary addition to an nonexclusive line
up with limited features used to accomplish something
we can already do. And they are nice enough to let us
make less money.
I agree with you on the fact that the problem is that it is a proprietary addition to a system. On the other hand the way I look at it, it is a VERY SIMPLE solution for a customer that might not have gone with lighting control in a surround sound system but because of the minimal cost will allow this customer to purchase lighting control. Thus in turn allowing for additional margin (might be small margin, but margin none the less).
For guys that don't sell lighting yet it is a good entry
into the field. F
We currently sell lighting control, but it economic systems we have a lot of customer's that are not interested in lighting control because of cost. This just allows for a broader customer base for lighting control.
For those that do, its another ebay/firedog/geek squad
obstacle to overcome when trying to sell the right solution.
Very rarely do I get shopped by a customer to ebay, firedog, or geek squad. When I do it is normally a customer that is looking for a more economic solution which this lighting control solution is. Firedog and Geek Squad cannot offer electrical solutions they are not licensed electricians. And do not contract to an electrician.
