Jim Price invites people to drop by and experience some of the audio and video systems available from Complete Home & Commercial Electronics.<\/em>\n<\/div>\n

By Barbara Brewer La Mere<\/p>\n

Jim Price, co-owner with Tom Cloran of Complete Home and Commercial Electronics, based in a newly renovated and expanded space at 47 Main Street in South Glens Falls, is clearly a man with a passion for electronics, delivering excellent customer service, and continuing to learn all he can about both of those. He started out in 1993, freshly graduated from a high school vocational program in electronics, installing car stereo systems. He quickly tired, however, of working in cramped quarters under vehicle dashboards, and became manager of a business that installed car stereo systems.
\nSeeking to learn more about the electronics business, Price became a sales representative for Denon, a manufacturer of high-quality audio-visual equipment, as well as for Monster Cable and approximately 20 other manufacturers. As a sales representative, Price had opportunities to learn how various businesses operated and to observe business practices that he wished to cultivate and others to avoid. When he came on board as general manager at Ray Supply, he was determined to deliver 100% customer satisfaction, giving customers even more than what they had expected. He was eager to apply all that he had learned as a sales rep about both the technical and business aspects of providing electronics applications to both homes and businesses. At that point in his career, Price feels that he had come to an understanding that a person with great enthusiasm for a trade, but without business savvy, will likely fail. He believes that a person with business knowledge and understanding, however, and who loves their trade, may well be headed for great success.<\/p>\n

Price’s partner in Complete Home and Commercial Electronics is Tom Cloran, had worked for a company that installed high-end home electronics systems, including home theaters and audio systems, in homes whose owners’ names are highly recognizable. In 1999, Cloran began his own business called Multimedia Solutions. In the meantime, Price had established a business called Complete Home Electronics. Both men had become involved in increasingly complex applications, incorporating more automation in smart homes and more technical business applications. The two men began discussing some large projects on which they were working, and talk turned to helping each other out. Ultimately, Price left Ray Supply, determined to continue learning and growing. Price’s and Cloran’s businesses merged into the current company.<\/p>\n

Price strives to keep a low overhead for his business and pass the savings along to customers. He promises that if his company provides an estimate, but his staff takes longer to complete the job, the final bill will reflect the time established in the estimate. While Price has made a name for himself in working on higher-end residential and commercial installations, he emphasizes that there are products and services that his company sells that are within reach for “Joe Average,” and he encourages people to stop in at 47 Main Street and see the values they’ll find on quality electronic merchandise. The showroom is open by appointment only, however, so customers will need to contact the company in advance. Complete Home and Commercial Electronics sells products from Denon, from Klipsch Audio Technologies (an American manufacturer of high-quality speakers for the last 60 years) and other high-quality manufacturers.<\/p>\n

In “pouring their hearts into” their work, Price and Cloran and Tom Cloran’s son, who also works for the company, have completed a couple of recent projects of which they are quite proud. Their installations of sound and video equipment at Calvary Assembly of God’s new facility on Sherman Avenue in Glens Falls have made the family worship center worthy of a House of Worship of the Year nomination. Angio-Dynamics’ new location in Latham features a board room with a 133 inch video screen that comes down out of the ceiling at a push of a button. Draperies are controlled as well to provide privacy during meetings. Elsewhere in the new building are interactive conference and training rooms. Digital signage is seen in multiple locations.<\/p>\n

Though Price maintains a certain aversion to working in small, tight quarters like vehicles or boats, for a very special project, he has made an exception as he works on various systems in a brand-new triple cockpit Hacker-Craft being built at Hacker Boat Company at Silver Bay on Lake George. Business savvy, extreme customer service, and passion for one’s work have landed Complete Home and Commercial Electronics yet another prestigious assignment.<\/p>\n
