"The KEY to Your Security and Peace of Mind"

An Ounce of Prevention:
     With the advent of the deadbolt in the 1960’s, residential burglaries began to decline and reached a plateau in the past few years. Today, 25 percent of homes in the United States have an alarm system, not to mention reinforced glass, superior lock technology and a veritable army of private security guards watching gated communities. But in spite of the dwindling crime numbers, almost 1.5 million homes were broken into last year. And when burglaries happen, police often have a difficult time tracking down the culprits. When thieves break into homes, there's a greater chance of them doing so during the day when many people are at work. Also, around 60 percent of annual household burglaries are forced entries, meaning someone had to pick the lock, drill the lock, break a window, or force a door open. To keep unwanted intruders out of your home, you don't have to turn your property into a suburban Fort Knox. There are many solutions that require no money at all--just a little common sense. Read on to learn about 10 things you can do that take little time or resources to make your home a safer haven.

Personality Profiling
    Have you ever said to yourself, “I just do not understand my client?” The fact is you may not. Popular personality science offers four distinct personality groups each with unique priorities and strengths. Considering the personality of clients allows you to better communicate your product or service and present the features that best reach your client's strongest motivations. Using personality profiling can increase your effectiveness with prospective buyers and improve your bottom line. Read on to see if your client is a Lion, Otter, Beaver, or Golden Retriever.

Church Security:
    It may sound strange, but I am an experienced church goer. From my childhood roots as an alter server at St. Anne's Catholic Church to playing guitar at Gator Christian Life, an evangelical college church, to First Baptist and Pentacostal and Charismatic and Methodist. It seems like I have visited them all. Churches seem to have changed a lot over the years. They are no longer just buildings for Sunday morning services, but rather a center point for home schoolers, pre-school programs, and community programs used all week long. This new aspect brings up security issues that churches of the past never needed to deal with.
