Here’s what’s happening around Commercial Integrator this week
- Each year, Commercial Integrator asks for feedback from the custom integration market to create its annual State of the Industry Report. We only have a few days left to collect responses, so we’d love for you to take a few minutes and answer our survey on how your business did in 2022 and what you expect in 2023. In appreciation of your help, a randomly chosen survey participant will win a $100 Amazon gift card! Take the 2023 State of the Industry survey.
- Commercial Integrator spends a lot of time doing the serious work of helping integrators run their businesses better. However, as the holiday season approaches, our editorial team wants to have a little fun. If you ever socialize as part of the #avtweeps community, you know that we enjoy chuckling over a good #AVFail. You know what we’re talking about, right? Think of all those images saved in your Photos app….Send your best #AVFail images to dan.ferrisi@emeraldx.com.
- View the webinar recording of “Risk-Mitigation Strategies for the Supply Chain” with guests from NSCA, AVI-SPL and Sport View Technologies. There’s no silver bullet to simply “fix” current supply-chain issues, but integration business owners can mitigate the risks they face and, in the process, enhance both client relationships and profitability. Watch the recording!
- As everyone in commercial AV knows, integration businesses are wrestling with challenges. Yet, some manufacturers and distributors are rising to the occasion and executing creative strategies to help. Check out this year’s list of Quest for Quality Winners and what they had to stay about their win!
The Commercial Integrator Podcast
The term “pro AV” doesn’t do justice to the whole integration crowd, so we at Commercial Integrator wanted to create a pro AV podcast that speaks to all the areas (and there are many!) under the umbrella of commercial technology integration.
The host, Commercial Integrator editor-in-chief Dan Ferrisi, is looking forward to providing listeners with an entertaining, informative forum for all topics affecting the commercial AV industry.
