The manufacturer and distributor of cloud-based security solutions for the UK and Ireland commercial, industrial and residential markets, has also embarked on this latest initiative to keep abreast of installers’ evolving priorities, which continue to shape the development of the firm’s expanding product portfolio and service provision.

The tour is designed to learn ways in which Risco can continue to deliver comprehensive support to enable installers to tackle major challenges such as increasing competition and the cost-of-living crisis and help them to achieve their aspirations and new business opportunities.

The tour includes the presentation of awards to customers who are part of the Risco Stars Partners Programme that helps installers to maximise profitability by delivering projects efficiently and cost-effectively; the scheme also assists contractors to expand their businesses and is the intruder market’s only programme that delivers access to product, business and leisure rewards.

While product promotions and extended warranties enable installers to minimise project costs, sales and marketing materials and a listing on Risco’s online installer directory help them to win contracts.

Said Risco’s managing director, Mark Taylor: “Installers face evolving challenges as they work to meet customers’ security needs. The cost-of-living crisis continues to squeeze margins and competition is fierce to win new business, especially in the lucrative commercial and industrial sectors.

“Our extensive Stars tour reflects our ongoing priority to keep up to date with and respond to these challenges by providing installers with new, UK- and Ireland- centric integrated products, enhanced training and supportive initiatives.”

Of the partnership programme, Risco Stars Gold award recipient, Dave Broom of DAB Security Systems, said: “Risco isn’t just a supplier of quality kit, it’s a business partner that makes the effort to understand our technical pain-points and commercial goals and to help us thrive.”
