Commercial Businesses Rely on GPS Products for Daily Operations

November 3rd, 2009

by Melissa Dear, Vice President of Spy Centre Security

Most people are familiar with the many personal uses for GPS tracking. You may have seen them on your favorite tv show, or you may have a friend who has used them. Many consumers use small portable GPS trackers for personal uses: tracking a spouse, tracking a teenager, even tracking a child in a crowd. More and more businesses are turning on to this cheap and easy to use technology. Such as…

Fleet Tracking of Service Vehicles – Any business dispatching multiple automobiles around town will naturally be able to save money if they can see at a glance each vehicles location. This is especially important when you are billing by the minute. Taxi companies reduce time wasted by drivers and give better service from knowing the real time location of the drivers. Delivery or repair companies can dispatch the closest unit at a glance. GPS can also be used to study the idle time, start and stop reports, and speed reports to cut wasteful driving habits.

Asset Tracking- Using GPS to track a particular shipment has been widely used by the federal reserve to track cash, and by the military to track their military assets. Now even smaller businesses are getting the ability to track their assets. Home builders are buying GPS to bust theft rings stealing appliances out of new homes being built. Construction companies are using GPS to track large pieces of machinery. Ease of portability, longer battery life, and smaller size are making it easier to track any asset that tends to be a big loss to a company.

Car Lots – Now tote-the-note car lots are selling cars with GPS installed. Typically they keep the technology inactive with the intention of remotely securing the car if payments are not met. GPS can tell the repo man exactly where the car is, and can even turn the motor off, making their job much easier.

Executive Tracking – Many companies are offering GPS to their highest level executives as a sort of insurance. These key employees may be prone to kidnapping, or may have travel required that could lend them lost. These smallest GPS are body worn and include a panic button to let them know immediately when a problem occurs.

There are many more uses and new uses being invented everyday for GPS products. Businesses must keep exploring their options with this technology

Tracking Troubled Teenagers with GPS

October 7th, 2009

The teenage years are full of great learning experiences. Living away from home, becoming independent, making choices and living with the consequences forever….OK who are we kidding? As a parent, sending your kids off to school can be one of the most gut wrenching, heart breaking, and depressing stages of being a parent. You want to believe that they can make it on their own. Yet you know they still have lapses in judgment, and you want to be there to pick them up when they fall.  The employees of Spy Centre Security hear the concerns of teen parents like these every day.

That is why Spy Centre Security has tailored a new product line that allows you to be there with your teenager. At Spycentre.com we now sell GPS products starting at just $199. making it possible to get constant updates on your teenagers’ car. You can now locate the real time location, receive start and stop reports, log a history of where the car goes, even log the speed of the car. All this information is available for the low monthly cost of a cell phone bill (plans start at just $29.99 monthly). Hopefully you will be pleased with the GPS data and never need to intervene. However if you do need to intervene you will be armed with the data to confront the issues head on.

GPS trackers at Spy Centre Security vary greatly based on performance, price, size, battery life, etc. On line retailers often do not provide the customer service and expertise needed to help you make an informed decision. Spy Centre Security stores in Dallas offer a free consultation with a live security specialist, free product training, face to face product support after the sale. Our tracking products all offer a month to month service plan so you can discontinue service when you want, not when a contract is up.

In addition to GPS tracking, we can also recommend additional products to monitor your teenagers such as audio recording, computer monitoring spyware, cell phone sim card reader, hidden video cameras with built in recorders, and spot tests for drugs and sexual activity, to name just a few.
Spy Centre Security is proud to be Dallas’ number 1 retailer for security and surveillance equipment for the past 19 years. We are available to you at our four Dallas locations, as well as online orders for customers outside of the Dallas area.
