Sound and Theater

“We would rather be experts in what we do than have a broad knowledge of everything we could do.” Shawn Lemay, President Sound and TheaterWatch movies, listen to music, adjust your lights, control your home's temperature, and manage your security system from one device with solutions from Williamsville based technology provider Sound and Theater. President and CEO Shawn Lemay says, “We sell quality, ease of use, and simplicity for our customers, solutions that make life easier, safer, and more comfortable from anywhere in your house, or anywhere in the world.” The business grew by 60% last year by focusing on residential and commercial applications that do one thing— make life and work simpler. Lemay has found his niche by working with builders to integrate home automation. Though people automatically think expensive when Lemay mentions home automation, Sound and Theater is able to offer a low cost of entry and people can build up to a more sophisticated solution over time. Starting with integrating a universal remote for TV, radio, lights, and security, Sound and Theater scales up to solutions like  multi-room lighting, smart lighting, advanced climate control, security, and others including door locks, window shades, pool controllers, and appliance monitors. If you can think it, they can do it according to Lemay whose technology experience dates back almost twenty years when he started his first company, an internet service provider. Aside from innovative solutions, it’s good business practice that keeps his customers coming back, “Our key is that we talk and listen to our customers, we aren’t pushing products, we come into it brand neutral.”
