Safeguard’s PBS Adds More TPSA Members

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Safeguard Security Holdings, Inc. (OTC:SSHS), a provider of corporate, industrial and residential security solutions, announces that Texas Package Store Association (TPSA) members continue to subscribe to Premier Background Search (PBS), a SEARCHglobal partnership.

“We are using this same marketing approach to gain access to clients with our international neighbors, Canada and Mexico.”

Premier Background Search (PBS), Safeguard’s SEARCHglobal partnership (www.PBS-USA.com), introduced its services to TPSA (www.texaspackage.com) during its annual package store convention held in Dallas in August of this year. Bill Rathburn, spokesperson for PBS, stated, “We have added many of the TPSA members as clients to our services, including Statewide Beverage, Star Beverage and Pinkies to name a few. We are taking the same marketing approach with other membership associations like TPSA. It allows us to offer a membership discount to members of their organization using our services.” Rathburn added, “We are using this same marketing approach to gain access to clients with our international neighbors, Canada and Mexico.”

R. Michael Lagow, CEO for Safeguard, said, “As we expand services into the international marketplace for PBS, Bill Rathburn, PBS’ spokesperson and international security consultant, will be performing educational seminars on the importance of background checks as a preliminary security measure in all business practices, including commercial and government markets, national and international sporting events, and non-profit groups of all types. Bill has an immense amount of experience through his directorship and association with the Olympics. He traveled internationally and provided security initiatives for some of the most publicized sporting events on the globe. Our office will open in Canada next month and we are currently in discussions to begin services in Mexico within the first quarter of 2010.” Lagow added, “We expect PBS to be our most profitable business unit to date, as it (PBS) is an internet based – web based electronic security measure to screen employees and personnel of all types of businesses. We are adding offices where we currently have infrastructure, minimizing our startup costs, thus Calgary made sense for us since some of our corporate officers are housed there.”
