Is it time to get your audio/video system in shape?

11/01/2017

Hi everyone, I need some help. I have recently applied to offer some of my services on Amazon Services. They have informed me that Link Systems currently does not have enough reviews and recommendations to be approved. So I am asking anyone, if they have time, to write a review on Google and then paste it here on this page. I would also appreciate if you know anyone that we have done work for over the past 16 years, and was happy with the results, please pass this on. Thank you in advance for your time and effort.

This is how a 15 minute service call turns into a 2 hour service call. I wish some of my competitors would take more pride in their work!

Don’t fall prey to content providers.

I ‘m always amazed when I walk into a bar or restaurant that has multiple TV’s and notice a cable/satellite box connected to each TV. For example, there is a bar in Big Bend that has 22 DirecTV boxes, a box for each TV. So, what does this tell me? It tells me that the owner didn’t consult with an Audio/Video professional before the install and fell prey to their sales practices.

The truth is, they don’t need that many boxes unless they want to have the ability to watch 22 different shows at the same time. Therefore, what is the rule of thumb? You require 1 box per viewing channel. For this instance, let’s say they have the NFL ticket and want the ability to show 4 different games at the same time. That means they would require only a total of 4 boxes.

If they are leasing their boxes, let’s say at $7.00 per month, that means instead of paying $154.00 a month they could be paying $28.00 a month to accomplish the same result. In most cases, DirecTV now requires businesses to purchase their boxes, at a cost of $400.00 each! In this example, that means this bar would’ve paid out $8,800 verse the $1,600 they should’ve paid, just to utilize their services.

Talk about solidifying an account for many years to come. And there’s the rub. What business owner would change service providers after an investment like that. Even if DirecTV increases their monthly fees after their introductory offer, they know the likelihood of the customer to cancel their service is slim due to the initial investment.

So, before you sign up with any service provider, make sure you consult an A/V professional first. They will help you determine your requirements and have your best interest at hand.

Can you believe it, the Packer and Badger football season is right around the corner again? It should be an exciting season for both teams and a great time to head to your favorite establishment to catch all the action. We take our football seriously here in Wisconsin, and when we head out to watch the game, we want the best experience possible. Not only are we looking for great drink and food specials, we like to be part of the action. And there’s no better way to accomplish this than being able to view and hear the game from any seat in the house. So, if you are an owner or know of any bar/restaurant that could use a tune-up before the season starts, contact Link Systems for a free no obligation assessment.

Finally a remote my father could even use.

TV has gotten complicated. Could Caavo be the solution?
