Our Clients
Here's What Our Clients Say
Ken came to American Security Systems as a consultant to help with our dashboard. He worked with Customer Service, the fire safety product and our central station monitoring center. After a year he became Vice President and a full time employee of American Security Systems. He continued his tenure and was then given the title of President. He made great changes in our Sales and Service departments. Ken was a great asset to our company; he helped with several acquisitions and with customer retention and Central Station procedures. He helped keep daily costs down and was also great with day-to-day staff issues.

American Security Systems NY
I hired Kenneth Gould to prepare us for future acquisitions. He had helped us research the acquisition and also help with the post acquisition period. Ken has also been a help with licensing and contracts for different states. He has been instrumental with finding quality sub-contractors and maintains contact on a weekly basic. I would highly recommend Ken Gould and KJG Consulting.
Beacon Protection
I hired Kenneth Gould over the years to help with sales production and help find new customers for our installation business. He became our General Manager and helped with growing business in the NY/NJ Metro area while we were preparing for acquisition. As a consultant he helped as we grew into other states. I would highly recommend Kenneth Gould as a consultant. Kenny is the best!
