This is Automation Unplugged, and I’m Ron Callis. Our guest today is John Carter — CEO of Multimedia Solutions and Powered Solutions. John began his career as a technician in his family’s security company before purchasing the business and expanding into AV and low-voltage solutions. With a vision for growth, he founded Multimedia Solutions in the late 90s, transforming it from three technicians in a storage unit into a regional powerhouse with offices in Dallas, Austin, and Houston. Four years ago, he launched Powered Solutions, an electrical division that complements his AV business and allows his team to deliver multimillion-dollar projects across Texas.
