Does your Parking Garage Lights and Emergency Lighting provide the best





















Does your Parking Garage Lights and Emergency Lighting provide the best visual advantage and darkness protection for clients and visitors?

Put yourself in their place as you get out of your vehicle for a very important meeting and step towards the walkway or elevator and the unwanted approaches you. You scream, others hear and see the unwanted running through the parking garage because of better the lighting. The police are called, the unwanted is arrested and you are safe.

A bad thunderstorm approaches, lighting up the sky, but knocking out the power in your high-rise building. Click, click and the emergency lights in the stairs from the 11th floor don’t turn on. Everyone must get down to the shelter with no emergency light, so you use the light in your smartphone to guide the way. On the 5th floors and below new LED emergency lights came on instantly providing great clarity and easy exit. What works best for you – your smartphone flashlight or reliable LED lighting?

The point is, as a business owner or facilities manager – cheap comes at a price. If a building resident or guest got hurt because of poor lighting, that would be on your conscious.

I recommend you buy the best American Made lighting for your building with us in mind.

How to Find a Mentor on LinkedIn



















It pays to join groups that relate to your products or services. It just takes a little time to search groups on LinkedIn by keywords.

I wanted to find LED Lighting Consultants and those three words were my keywords. Fortunately, I came upon Egret Consulting Group. A special thanks to Ted Connerth founder of the Egret Consulting Group for his mentoring on who and how to target market potential clients. 

What to do Next
Once you have decided which groups are best for you, start inviting key people to connect with you by sending them a personal message (not canned) to connect with you. 

One you have received a connection back, invite that key person to call you for an initial conversation. 

In our case we were looking for a key person who could direct us on who our primary clients would be and what our goal was. Our primary clients would be Manufacturers Reps anywhere in the US. Next came our goal – Connect on LinkedIn, then include our phone number for a First Call. Warm the relationship up a bit. 

Manufacturers Reps are our key people or primary clients because they know the marketability of a product like ours and how it looks and behaves in the commercial and industrial marketplace.

Next, I was instructed to meet with 7-8 Manufacturers Reps and come out with 1-2 pages of questions. This is where we are in the process with some good conversations with other LED lighting professionals. One key action. Visit your potential client’s website and do your homework. You can learn a lot about how good of a fit your product or service is to their business.

After my conversation with Ted at Egret, I came up with three key skills I wanted in a manufacturers rep. They had to be a company who can work with us. Then they had to be the most influential company in their territory giving our product the best possible exposure to their client base. And finally, they had to be the largest sales territory to carry as much of our 4000 lights sold per month volume. Basically, it comes down to how much of that 4000 lights per month volume could they handle.

Be Professional
If I have learned anything in 40 plus years of sales, its “learn to sort” through your potential clients, because they can tell if you are begging for the sale. Don’t do that. Be a complimentary match to their workload not a burden.
If you are a Manufacturers Rep reading this, here is a little something about our LED lighting fixtures. The Renaissance One is UL Certified, has an LM-79 rating of 158.5 with a 200 rating coming by June and our DLC listing is in process.

The R-One fits these Categories - Flush Mount, Linear Suspended, Industrial, High Bay, Parking Garages and Commercial Applications.

Our Primary Territories include NYC, LA, Chicago, Houston, Philly, Phoenix, San Antonio, San Diego, Dallas, San Jose, Miami, Seattle, PDX with many more cities being added.

Serve Your Client
What we need from you is a “punch list of what you need”. The better we can equip you with success tools the easier your job will be. 


Onto the finish line of this success story.

Backed by 40 Years of Science and Engineering




















LED lights are a more energy efficient alternative to fluorescent light and older LED's due to increased energy efficiency standards. However, many companies have been hesitant to fully replace their current fixtures with the latest in LED lighting technology due to the upfront costs involved to retrofit.


That’s why Fundamental Lighting Solutions, Inc., is creating versatile LED lights with a longer lifespan, better performance, greater energy efficiency and greater cost savings than any other LED light on the market. Plus your states or power companies energy rebates may provide a potential zero costs upfront.


With an Energy Efficiency rating by the GSA Group of 160 and revamping the Renaissance One to achieve a, 200 energy efficiency rating, the Renaissance One will become the clear “Green” choice in the marketplace with a potential 45% monthly energy cost savings for clients of commercial facilities over other fixtures.


The Renaissance One Luminaire was developed over three years by Wayne Bliesner who has 20 years Engineering experience at Boeing, 20 years of independent scientific development at the ADI family of businesses and has developed over 100 USA and international patents.


Contact Bryan Long via our G+ Group or Profile for a Lighting Demo in the Seattle WA and Bend OR areas or ordering information. If you are an Energy Efficiency professional we would like to speak with you about selling the Renaissance One in your area. Yours in LED Lighting Success - Bryan
