Schneider Electric Canada is hosting three webcasts that will help you increase margins by selling residential surge protection. (Shown in photo: webcaster Aravind Kumar, Schneider Electric Canada’s Product Manager, surge protection.)

As an electrical contractor, you know that surges may occur several times each day and damage all home electronics, from appliances to alarm systems and smoke detectors. Protecting them is easier than it sounds and can help you boost your sales and profits.

This webinar series is perfect for electrical contractors (company owners, self-employed or employees) who want to increase their business and learn

  • how surge protection works
  • how to choose the best product to offer to customers
  • how to simply explain the technology to homeowners
  • how to better sell the product and increase margins

Three dates are available:

  • Wednesday, October 26, 8:00 AM EDT
  • Wednesday, October 26, 12:00 PM EDT
  • Thursday, October 27, 5:00 PM EDT

In addition to SPDs (surge protective devices), Aravind Kumar manages Schneider’s lighting panelboards and metering products for the Canadian market. He’s spent six years in Schneider Electric and has experience in product development and marketing. Aravind holds an MBA from the Schulich School of Business and a degree in Instrumentation engineering from India.
