But first, we talked with Jaqueline Joseph, Installed Audio, Video & Control Technical Product Marketing Manager at HARMAN Professional to ask her a few questions about BSS design philosophies, the importance of market feedback, and how BSS products are built to exceed customer expectations.

Jaqueline, how important is the feedback you and the team receive from system integrators, consultants, and other AVC professionals in influencing the design of BSS products?
Thanks for having me. Whether we are at tradeshows, working with our applications engineering team, or interfacing with our consultant and integrator community, ensuring that we can gather detailed feedback is crucial to successful product design. It allows us to precision-tailor our products to drive enhanced innovation and ensure our solutions are not just effective but exceeding user expectations.

We prioritize our users in every aspect of product design. This commitment underscores our fundamental pillars to ensure we are delivering the most innovative products we can design.

Focusing on these elements also ensures that our products deliver a seamless user experience while also adapting to the evolving needs of the market. 

And lastly, why does BSS prioritize its service, support, and training so highly in the overall customer experience?
There are a variety of manufacturers that can build products that might achieve the customer’s intended goal. However, there are very few that are wholly committed to a world-class integrator and customer experience before, during, and after the install. Offering ongoing service, support, and training are essential to ensuring our clients maximize the value of their investment and achieve long-term success.
