This free webinar will discuss the key operating metrics that define and impact the creation of value in RMR-based security alarm companies. The discussion will center around quantifying the “Big Four”: 1) the cost dynamic of originating new customers and their recurring and associated revenues; 2) how much is earned from these revenues; 3) how long the revenues last; and 4) the impact of growth.

Additionally, it will be shown how this view provides a holistic framework for understanding your operating and financial dynamic, and how the view facilitates communicating with investors, lenders and other stakeholders about performance and value.
