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.
