The Security Industry Marketplace provides users with two ways to search for the information they need.
Keyword Search
Finding products and services in the Security Industry Marketplace is easy using the keyword search. Results are presented in order of relevancy based on a search of the companys website and listing description for the keywords. Companies with enhanced listing show up before those with basic listings.
1.) From the front page of the Security Industry Marketplace, locate the "Search" cell window usually in the upper left hand corner. You'll see the words "Search industry suppliers and their websites" in the cell.
2.) Now type in a word, several words, or a phrase that describes what you are looking for.
3.) If you use an exact phrase, don't forget to select the words "Exact Phrase" located below of the search window. If you use several words, select "All the Words". To search by company name only, select "Company Name".
For instance, if you are looking for a copier company:
Type "copiers" into the search cell window.
Then hit the "Find It" button on the right side, or simply hit enter on your keyboard.
If you prefer to only search for suppliers who have a special affiliation to an association, select one of the check boxes that filters the results to show only association members or other available designations.
To further focus your keyword search by looking for companies within a certain distance from your location:
Go to the upper right hand corner of the keyword search area and select your state
Enter your city or zip code
Then select how close you need the business to be by choosing the number of miles from the cell window marked "Radius"
Category Search
The Security Industry Marketplace offers users a convenient alphabetized category and heading search that makes finding suppliers simple and fast. Enhanced listings show up in the headings before those with basic listings.
For example, if you were looking for an Electronic Publisher:
1.) First, look under "publishing"
2.) Then scan the heading list under E for Electronic Publishing. Then click.
3.) This will take you to a results page filled with companies involved in that industry.
4.) Select a company you are interested in and click on either the company name or logo to access a company listing page that features:
