MAJOR CANADIAN INVESTMENT FUND AND GLOBALTEK SECURITY INC. FORGE
STRATEGIC ALLANCE AVAILING MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR POOL FOR DEALER PROGRAM
FINANCING.
For Immediate Release:
GlobalTek Security Inc. (GlobalTek) has
forged a strategic alliance with multi-million-dollar investment pool, to provision
financing for scaled growth to pre-existing Authorized Dealer Program.
Our funding programs will interest
potential dealers desiring uniform payout schedules and fast (even weekly)
funding, but also to those wishing to provide financing options to their new or
existing clients for larger projects; such as multi-camera CCTV installations,
fire suppression systems, and large industrial-grade card access platforms.
Our Background
GlobalTek Security began operations in
2002, as a technician contracting company.
Then named “ANK TECH,” its prime operations included subbing its roster
of technicians to security companies to satisfy their overflow requirements on
a needs-only basis.
During the 2000s, ANK TECH built an industry-wide
reputation by providing quality and timely work to many the major security
brands including but not limited to:
·
ADT Canada
·
A.P.I. Alarm
·
Reliance Protectron Security
Services
·
Security 24 Monitoring
·
Alliance Security
·
Logan Alarm
·
Protection Plus
·
Counterforce Corporation
·
Chubb Edwards (dealer channel)
·
Chubb Edwards (corporate
channel)
·
And many more “authorized
dealers” and independents
In September 2006, Regional Protection
Security Inc. was officially created and incorporated (RP Security). Largely a sales and marketing outfit, RP
Security found its first home through the wholesale channel at Reliance
Protectron (Security 24), as an authorized security dealer.
Though largely operating as a sub-dealer
its first three years, by the 2010s however, RP Security had established itself
as a bona fide “direct dealer” with the wholesale division of Reliance
Protectron, having built a respectable subscriber base within a relatively
short timeframe.
ADT Security Purchases Reliance
Protectron
May 1st, 2014 the announcement
came that ADT Security was acquiring Reliance Protection. Wishing not to continue relations under what
would now be ADT, RP Security migrated its subscriber base to the residential division
of UTC Fire & Security, Counterforce Corporation.
Strategic Alliance
ANK TECH, now operating as ANK Security, landed
a contracting relationship with Counterforce/Chubb Edwards during the mid 2010s. RP Security penned its dealer agreement at Counterforce
shortly after ANK signed its contract, thus making a strategic alliance in late
2014 a natural fit for both companies, as they were now both operating under
the same corporate umbrella.
SecurityProfessional.ca and the Rise of
GlobalTek Security
In early 2015, RP Security and ANK Security
launched Ontario’s first white label technician service desk. Unlike other third-party contractors availing
their services to the security industry, our service desk had a distinct value
proposition.
We operated exclusively under the “SecurityProfessional.ca”
white label brand, promising no markers or affiliations to ANK Security or RP
Security. This removed any perceived
conflicts of interest with vendors, while alleviating customer confusion in the
process, as we were simply viewed as an extension of the company we were
operating on behalf of.
It was the success of our white label service
desk (via ANK) that helped bankroll the several hundred subscribers acquired by
RP Security’s sales desk during late 2014 and 2015.
Industry Recognition and Media Spots
In late 2015, RP Security and ANK formally
joined forces to form GlobalTek Security Inc. to further grow its brand under our
new business model of running a “double desk” in unison.
While always a member of the Canadian
Security Association (CANASA) since inception, in 2016 GlobalTek was nominated
to a vacant seat for CANASA’s Golden Horseshoe Council. GlobalTek won the seat and has successfully
held it since 2016.
In January 2017, GlobalTek Security was
confirmed as Counterforce’s fastest growing wholesale dealer. In Spring 2017, the Niagara Entrepreneur of
the Year Awards (NEYA) recognized our atypical growth story and nominated us
for their “Emerging Entrepreneur” category.
In Summer 2017 CHCH news ran a television spot on the benefits of camera
surveillance and deferred to GlobalTek to provide authoritative insights on the
industry’s latest technology.
Service Desk Discontinuation &
Account Rebranding
With now a quadruple-digit in-house
subscriber base and a healthy balance sheet, GlobalTek made the executive
decision to close its white label service desk in December 2018, to redouble
its focus on national growth and account acquisition. The “SecurityProfessional.ca” white label URL,
now exists solely as a web-forward to our existing company website.
In 2019, all GlobalTek accounts rebranded
from “station-side” to “dealer-side” to better streamline our processes and
reduce our company to a singular brand for business purposes. GlobalTek Security cut all ties with
Counterforce Corporation in 2018 and broke out as a stand-alone company.
2020 and Beyond
GlobalTek Security would like to speak with
security dealers who wish to remain dealers, and not become pseudo extensions
of the corporate brands they represent by continuously servicing, providing ongoing
administrative support, and retaining on-call installation technicians—all to
service accounts they don’t even own.
This is unfortunately indicative of most dealer programs today. All these additional functions drag sales and
hurt your dealer business.
We also do bulk acquisitions from security
companies wanting to monetize their account base and/or wind down their
business. And we are always interested to
talk to investors wanting to park their money at competitive interest rates.
We welcome security companies, dealers, and
investors alike to call us anytime to discuss opportunities.
