When choosing a company, it is better that you first research a little, ask friends and family, and then make a well informed decision. The residential security market is growing fast. Defenders, a local family run company specializing in home security and smart home technology, is growing faster. Fueled by a plethora of new digital and wireless technology, the home security industry is growing 5
percent to 10 percent each year, according to multiple sources. Defenders, which was founded by husband and wife Dave and Jessica Lindsey in 1998, has grown at a 20 percent annual rate the past two years, with revenue projected to
exceed $600 million this year. And with security systems in only 22 percent of U. S. households and home automation technology taking off, Defenders CEO Jim Boyce is confident there is still plenty of room for growth. “This is a great, great business,” Boyce told IBJ. “There are tons of innovations going on within this industry and that’s going to push growth. ”But the potential has spawned a plethora of new competitors, from cable television providers such as Comcast, to telephone companies including ATandT and Verizon, and the latest—internet retail behemoth Amazon.
