As part of our trends to watch for 2011, we noted that commercial integration firms look like they’ll be hiring again this year, with a focus on diversification of service offerings and boosting revenue.

With that backdrop, we couldn’t help but be heartened by the announcement by Almo Pro A/V that the company plans to hire new employees in all of its sales territories in 2011, starting with Gary Post as territory manager for the Mid-Atlantic region.

Are you planning to add staff at your CI firm? Focusing on new salespeople or more technically inclined hires? What is your time frame for new hires?
