AmericanSentryGuard is proud to announce that the company has earned a spot on the 2007 Inc. 500 list, Inc. Magazine's annual list of the 500 fastest-growing privately-held companies in the United States.  ASG joined this elite group of businesses for the second year in a row.

Here is what Inc. Editor Jane Berentson has to say about this select group: "If you want to find out which companies are going to change the world, look at the Inc. 500. These are the most innovative, dynamic, fast-growth companies in the nation, the ones creating systems that let us conduct business faster and easier, and manufacturing products we soon discover we can't live without. The Inc. 500 list is Inc. Magazine's tribute to American business ingenuity and ambition."

Despite our growth, and the occasional interest of investors, ASG continues to be led by its father and son team of Jack and Jeff Brummett. Along the way, a number of key staff members have been added, all of whom have helped propel the company’s growth in the area of sales and product development. In addition to our reputation of providing cutting-edge video surveillance products, we still provide our dealers with innovative marketing and lead generation services through our Dealer Marketing Services division.

Our CEO Jack Brummett says: “In the beginning, our goal was not to be listed in the Inc. Magazine; our original goal was simply to survive as a startup company. In order to survive, you must be willing to do whatever it takes to stay ahead of the curve. If that means changing your business model, then change it. Sometimes it is also admitting that you can’t do it by yourself and you need to hire key personnel that are gifted in the areas you are not. Making the Inc. 500 list does not mean we have arrived. The challenge before us is as big as it has ever been. Managing the growth can be as difficult as creating it. A purpose driven vision of what you want to do and where you are going is equally important as your willingness to do whatever it takes. My son, Jeff, provides the leadership and vision for the company’s future. Where we need to be and how to get there is his gift and expertise. This is how we’ve gotten to where we are today.”

Jeff Brummett, our President and COO, points out that ASG's success is a team effort. “We are very proud of our people. To successfully compete at this level, in a high tech industry like video surveillance, really says a lot about the quality of products and people you have in your organization. Our people bought into a vision several years ago and made that vision a reality. Our products may be phenomenal, but our people are so much better! Our employees, their positive attitude and work ethic are as much of a key to our success as anything we have done."
