Monitoring is your bread/butter. Otherwise, how the heck can you make any skanool installing systems for $99.00? LOL.

$99.00, fk that schit. My jobs start somewhere around $2.5k upwards. And then my clients can elect if they want monitoring or not. If they do, they can cancel anytime, no contracts. I will only sell/install full perimeter systems with security light integration etc. I'm not interested in 2 detector BS jobs. Not worth my time.
I currently monitor around 3000 alarms.
We are changing our monitoring to IP shortly. 16 second pulses. No pulse, alarm response required.
