You’ve heard the expression: “There’s no such thing as bad publicity”? We prefer good publicity, any day! And we’ve had no trouble garnering our fair share of favorable press. Some recent examples:
- Our new mobile digital video recorder (MDVR) for the police/law enforcement sector–the PatrolRecorder Series–debuts in Law Enforcement Product News (May/June, pg 35).
- Triple whammy: Our SV-LCD70 flat-screen monitor, RouteRecorder 5C MDVR, and SV-SS22 color zoom camera are all featured in Fire Chief magazine’s Product Showcase (May, pg 67).
- Double whammy: Concrete Products magazine ran a piece penned by Safety Vision Account Executive Steve Sappol titled “The Rear Vision Camera Revolution” (May, pg 37) and earlier included a Safety Vision rear- and side-vision product release (March, pg 61)
- Account Executive Jeff Taylor was interviewed by Advanced Rescue Technology for a feature discussing the beneficial integration of our SV-CLCD-65-620 rear-vision camera system and our RoadRecorder 6000 PRO MDVR for the fire/rescue industry (April/May, pg 29).
- Our new RouteRecorder 1000 MDVR is featured in both School Bus Fleet (April/May, pg 56) and School Tranpsortation News (April, pg 59).
- Our new side-vision color camera, the SVC-200S, appears in the pages of Waste News (April 24, pg 21).
- In March, Safety Vision sponsored the “Backing safety” article in Beverage Industry, which included a letter from our president, Bruce Smith, explaining the pertinence of both collision avoidance and mobile surveillance systems in the food & beverage distribution sector
- Our sleek new side-vision camera, the SV-250SC, is featured in a “Spotlight on Consumer Electronics” segment in RV Trade Digest, a publication serving the recreational vehicle market (March, pg 29)
- Another double whammy: North American Quarry News ran not-one-but-two very favorable articles featuring our collision avoidance camera systems: “Granite City Ready Mix Reaps Rewards of Rear-Vision Investment” and “Safety Vision Products Raise Industry Standard” (February, pgs 3 and 4)
- Our largest single purchase order to date–the $1 million plus installation for IndyGo, the Indianapolis metro transit system–gets ink in an article titled “Cameras soon will monitor IndyGo riders, drivers” on Indystar.com (January)
- And we wrapped up 2005 with additional good press. Eurotransport ran a sidebar on our onboard security cameras and mobile surveillance systems within a security feature titled “CCTV: crucial role” (pg 58); School Transportation News spotlighted Bruce in a “Presidential Series” interview in November (pg 40); and Account Executive Richard Newcombe was interviewed by Railway Age magazine for its “Transit security: What more can be done?” article (pg 37)
In other industry publication news, we’re also appearing in a few industry buyer’s guides that are new to us (along with our inclusion in the many other buyer’s guides we’ve traditionally run in): Police & Security News (March/April), Oilheating Journal (April), and Christian School Products (May).
Whew: That IS a lot of good press! Keep your eyes peeled as you turn the pages, and you’re likely to stumble on us in future issues of industry pubs.
