“The people who buy AMX systems can afford $4 a gallon for gas, but they still don’t want to be wasteful. They are concerned about the environment, especially their personal environment, so approach it on a personal scale instead of a macro scale...ask them, ‘Do you want me to set a trigger if water or energy usage goes over a certain level every month?’ Start with a broad concept, but make it personal.” -Chris Westfall, AMX National Director of Residential Sales
