THIS IS NOT A FRANCHISE THIS IS A DEALERSHIP It's very easy to get on board as a MY-ALARM Dealer. If your specific market area is available, MY-ALARM has 3 basic requirements to start selling and earning. -Absolutely no pending, current or previous felonious convictions. -Complete the MY-ALARM required equipment training. (about 4 hours via on-line webinar) -Purchase , and activate service, at Dealer level pricing, at least three of our systems, any combination, (for training and demonstration).

All Marketing Material & Support OPTION-B** We offer an equipment and service leasing option for less cash outlay. (this can be helpful with cash flow on new ventures). Our leasing option offers very lenient qualification guidelines. Terms are for 36 months and require $125.00 down and $125.00 per month. Dealer receives one each of all system types & 36 months of service is included. Using a Conservative Build-up of Adding One Additional Sale per Month for a 12 Month Period, Dealer's Monthly Profit Would Be In Excess of $1100.00 This does NOT include Payments made to Dealer (you)for Equipment sold.
