However, sometimes "doing your best" is not the only criterion for choosing to continue working within the company. Consider Crestron Electronics, the manufacturer of automation equipment (light, sound, temperature control) for houses, offices and yachts. Forty years after opening Deli in Rockley, New Jersey, the founder George Felstein's company earned $ 500 million in revenue. Soldering the parts to the board is not too difficult, but Crestron produces 80% of 1,500 products in the United States. Save money and move most of your work abroad? In November last year, Mr. Feldstein told Mr. Forbes: "When the economy moves south, we bring everything inside, not disappointing people, and we will pay more for it." In Crestron, an experienced assembly line worker per hour It earns $ 17, more than double the state minimum wage of 7.25 dollars, better than the average assembly price of New Jersey electronics equipment of $ 14.90.

There are several traditional companies that offer family solutions. Based in New Jersey, Crestron has a custom system that enables customers to manage safety, energy usage, lighting, HVAC and entertainment systems from their tablets. Ingersoll Rand recently began offering a series of affordable home control products under the Nexia brand. And then there is Apple - of course. We announced the release of HomeKit, a platform used by smart home space developers to create device control applications. The goal is to provide the industry gateway, Lingua Franca. In fact, according to RNR data, the smart home market may grow to $ 60 billion by 2020.

Over time, the prices of these systems, products and services fell. Companies such as SmartThings and Wink currently offer the latest smart home system at Crestron's minimal cost. People have saved money, but they are not saving time; the complexity of these smart home methods still exists. A system derived from a simple system works, but a system derived from a complex does not function. This is an important idea to consider especially in the smart home industry. The industry we see today is born from a network of dealers, programmers, and architects tangled up. It requires a lot of redesign, or you will never escape from the labyrinth we created.
