Call handling and job records depend on the shop's connection.
The most sensitive customer list in town
By the Telecom Agency advisory team
A locksmith knows who was locked out, where they live and what protects their door. Those records sit in a shop computer that also browses the web and opens every email.
What a consultant changes
Telecom Agency treats that list with the seriousness it deserves: protected devices, a separated network and a mobile setup that keeps records off personal phones. An independent advisor can recommend the right level of security without overselling, because there is no commission tied to the biggest package.
How Telecom Agency shops the market for locksmiths
- The advice
- Given the sensitivity of the records, the advice begins with protected devices and a separate network for the shop, then covers mobile service for the van and call handling for emergencies.
- The price
- Security is quoted at the level the business needs. An independent advisor has no reason to recommend the largest package, and explains why a smaller one is enough.
- The service
- The advisor reviews protection yearly and after any change of staff, and is the contact for the carrier and the security provider.
- No fee to you: providers pay the advisor
- Every provider compared, none favoured
- One contact for every carrier
- Reviews and support after the install
