In this episode of Video Vices with Contemporary Research, host Sean Heath sat down with Nelson Solares, sales executive at Contemporary, to discuss the company’s approach to tried-and-true pro AV technology that’s well-made and affordable. Solares and Heath also address the growing AV over IP trend, which admittedly can be a shiny object to chase.“Our take is that [AV over IP] shouldn’t be so difficult,” Solares said.That’s why Dallas-based Contemporary Research takes a user-friendly approach. When it comes to Pro AV solutions, companies can choose to either put things in layman’s terms or make things complicated so that customers have to call their rep if something goes wrong.“We’re the product that wants to be really user-friendly and integrator friendly,” he said.When combatting shiny object syndrome, it’s helpful to remember the basics — plug, play, and get to work. “That’s what’s great about Contemporary Research. We’ve done the heavy lifting — giving you the encoders, decoders, and the software — and you just need to plug it in and configure it for you," Solares said.Contemporary Research’s products are recognized for their durability and quality because they’re made in the United States.“We’ve managed to keep all the manufacturing in the USA, which customers love, especially customers from other countries,” Solares said. “And then they learn they can have a quality product and save money, they get blown away.”

On our Pro AV Podcast, we often talk about exciting, innovating or challenging new technology that's entering the industry. It can be difficult to keep up, too; things move at break-neck speed. What we wanted to do this time around was explore how one of these exciting innovations, i.e. huddle rooms and the tech that powers them, is affecting each of the main roles within Pro AV: the manufacturers, the manufacturer reps, and the integrators.How are manufacturers training their workforce to stay updated with the best tech? How are the representatives learning to best sell potential clients on the social power of a huddle room? How are integrators learning to work with the design limitations of each respective business? We're joined by Nelson Solares, Sales Executive for Contemporary Research, to break down these changes and why huddle rooms present both unique challenges and reliefs. "As an integrator, you need to be a good listener and know all the technologies out there, the different manufacturers that might be doing the same thing," Solares said.For the latest news, videos, and podcasts in the Pro AV Industry, be sure to subscribe to our industry publication.Follow us on social media for the latest updates in B2B!Twitter – @ProAVMKSLFacebook – facebook.com/marketscaleLinkedIn – linkedin.com/company/marketscale
