Question: Tell us a little about starting Nelson-Jones Electric and the evolution into AV Simplified Solutions.

I started in the electrical business working with my father-in-law in 1984. I decided pretty quickly that I wanted to do this for a living, but not necessarily for my father-in-law. I was fortunate to have learned a lot about the business from him. I went to Chattanooga State and took some classes and received my license in 1985. I started out by myself with one helper in a van. If I recall, I was working for one or two contractors. I was very small and developed the self sufficient mindset that has carried me through to today. As business grew, I noticed that contractors were hiring other people to do security, alarms, and A/V work. Because we were already pulling wire in the houses, I became interested in adding this to my list of services. Just as I did with the electrical, I started taking classes on audio/video. We started installing small audio/video systems like simple surround sound. As my knowledge grew and demand grew, we began installing whole house audio distributions systems. We continued to grow and evolve adding other services like security systems. The demand for our non-line voltage services has grown so much that I started AV Simplified Solutions to meet that demand and take better care of my customers.

Question: Why did you start AV Simplified Solutions?

As I mentioned, the demand for my non-line voltage services such as home theater systems, security, control systems, etc., has grown so much. To better serve my customers, my only choice was to become a one-stop-shop. I feel like I establish trust with my customers and I want to serve them the best that I can. AV Simplified Solutions allows me to do that.

Question: Who can benefit the most from your products and services?

Any home owner who wants to add automation, lighting, home theater, or audio/video to their home can benefit by calling AV Simplified Solutions. Builders and contractors can benefit too because using a single company for electrical and integration can save them and the homeowner a lot of money. The builder can call us for all their high voltage, low voltage, A/V, and automation in one shop without adding an extra burden to their project management. Beyond just pulling wire, we can build custom home theaters from scratch as we have a general contractor’s license in both Tennessee and Georgia. We can do both new homes and remodels.

Question: Tell us about your showroom.

We are very excited about our new showroom. Basically, we rented an empty warehouse and we put a house inside it. Each room is a different setting and demonstrates different technology or different options. Homeowners can put their hands on this technology and better decide how they want to integrate it into their home and lifestyle.

We have a custom home theater built with a proscenium, a 10 foot screen, theater seating, incredible Sunfire speakers, sound panels, and everything else a theater needs. You really have to see it to believe it. We have a living room set up as a media room with a 5.1 surround sound system. We have different zoned areas so that we can demonstrate a distributed audio/video system. Almost anything that you images, we are trying to bring that experience in person and hands on in our showroom.
