Linear LLC Unveils Expanded Builder Incentive Program


ORLANDO, Fla. (February 12, 2008) - At the 2008 International Builders' Show this week, Linear LLC, a market leader in home technology solutions for security, communications, and entertainment for over four decades, introduced its expanded Linear Builder Program with new incentives for contractors, dealers, and system installers. Highlights of the program include special product packages for Linear products, sales literature, and support materials to promote the value of Linear systems as value-added solutions for new homes, and a new Dealer Bucks incentive program. With the new programs, the more Linear products builders and dealers install in new homes, the greater their profits.

The new Linear Builder Program is designed to help both builders and homebuyers. For builders and installers, the Linear Builder Program enables an easy way to add the latest technologies to new homes at minimal cost and maximum profit. The program encompasses Linear's complete line of award-winning, top-selling whole-house solutions, including entry systems, access control, security, home networking, high definition AV wiring, and cleaning solutions. All the products in the program are backed by the industry's best warranties. The Linear Builder Program gives builders and integrators a single resource for home wiring, security, access control, and more. It also gives builders ready-to-use sales materials combined with a national network of seasoned installers. The Linear Builder Program delivers higher quality products backed by a name homeowners have used every day for over four decades.

Homebuyers benefit as well, since Linear-equipped homes give them immediate access to the latest conveniences, such as central intercom and communications systems, whole-house music, the latest in high definition AV wiring, state-of-the-art security, remote controlled access solutions, and even superior cleaning with central vacuum systems. And since qualified experts install Linear's products, they are reliable and hassle-free. Linear products are clearly desirable to discerning homeowners looking to increase their property values.

"The Linear Builder Program presents a unique opportunity for production and custom home builders who install one or more Linear product packages," said Gary Baker, Vice President of Sales, Electronic Systems, for Linear LLC. "It offers the builder a way to consolidate suppliers, while offering new homeowners access to the latest home technologies. The Linear Builder Program not only enables builders to sell more options, but also provides essential marketing tools and a generous rebate program that grows with participation."

Highlighting the new program is the new Dealer Bucks program, a rebate program for dealers and installers affiliated with builders who are part of the program. The Dealer Bucks program provides credits for installing each of the Linear Builder Program whole-house solutions: Communications Solutions, Emergency Solutions, Entry Systems, HD Solutions, and Cleaning Solutions. For every package installed, dealers receive credits for the purchase of additional Linear products, thus adding to their bottom line. The more they install, the greater their profits.

Linear offers a comprehensive line of home wiring products. Linear's whole-house cleaning solutions include central vacuum systems that deliver three times the cleaning power of standard vacuums and come with a variety of accessories. Linear's whole-house entry systems include telephone entry systems, intercoms, garage door and gate operators, keypads, wireless entry systems, and more. Linear also offers whole-house networking solutions for consolidated Internet access. To support the latest in consumer electronics, Linear offers its whole-house HD solutions, making it easy to route, split, and switch high definition audio and video signals anywhere in the house. And Linear's whole-house communications products provide the latest intercom and whole-house music products. Linear also offers whole-house emergency solutions products, including hardwired and wireless smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, alarm systems, emergency communications systems, and more.
