Private security markets reward companies that differentiate services while maintaining competitive pricing. Jack Byrd has positioned Solaren to capture premium contracts through specialized capabilities and industry expertise.
Solaren offers armed security, unarmed security, off-duty police services, traffic control, private investigations, and process serving across five states. This service diversity enables comprehensive client solutions while reducing revenue dependence on single service lines.
Off-duty law enforcement services command higher rates than civilian security. Police officers possess arrest authority, wear department-issued uniforms, and operate marked patrol vehicles. “The officers are armed and have arrest authority. Law enforcement officers are highly trained and capable of providing elite security services,” according to company materials.
Technology partnerships enhance service offerings without significant capital investment. Solaren’s relationship with LiveView Technologies provides access to AI-powered mobile surveillance trailers. These solar-powered units deploy rapidly for temporary security needs, appealing to clients seeking cost-effective alternatives to permanent installations.
Geographic expansion targets underserved markets with growth potential. North Carolina operations exemplify this strategy, with Solaren deploying personnel to establish local contractor networks. “We’re working on North Carolina right now, and so we have plenty of people going out there all the time going to these locations, hiring people,” Pepper explains.
Client sectors include entertainment venues, critical infrastructure, corporate facilities, retail establishments, and government entities. This diversification provides revenue stability during economic fluctuations affecting specific industries. Entertainment clients may reduce security during slow seasons while infrastructure clients maintain consistent requirements.
Insurance coverage differentiates Solaren from competitors lacking comprehensive liability protection. Every officer operates under a $3 million insurance policy, protecting clients from lawsuit exposure. “When companies hire off-duty police officers directly, they often unknowingly expose themselves to huge financial risk as the sole insurer for the officers they employ,” company materials note.
Process serving operations leverage Solaren’s law enforcement relationships and geographic presence. Most process servers are current or former police officers, providing credibility and professional presentation. Unlike competitors requiring extended service timelines, Solaren commits to 72-hour deployment without additional charges.
Training programs create competitive advantages through superior personnel quality. Clients increasingly recognize that inadequately trained security provides minimal value. Solaren’s comprehensive training curriculum attracts clients willing to pay premium rates for professional services.
Emergency response capabilities enable premium pricing during crisis situations. Hurricane Milton deployment demonstrated Solaren’s ability to mobilize personnel and equipment rapidly for disaster security needs. These high-stakes contracts generate substantial revenue while showcasing operational capabilities.
Market reputation influences client acquisition and retention rates. Positive client testimonials reference exceptional service quality and professional conduct. “Thank you for SAVING MY ENTIRE BUSINESS Solaren Risk Management, Your impeccable security team is incredible,” states one client endorsement.
Byrd’s law enforcement background provides market credibility and industry connections. His experience with Davidson County Sheriff’s Office and United States Marshal Service creates trust with government clients and law enforcement agencies. This background differentiates Solaren from security companies lacking legitimate law enforcement expertise.
The company’s growth trajectory reflects successful market positioning. Annual revenue and contract values have increased consistently since 2017 founding. Client retention rates exceed industry averages, indicating satisfaction with service quality and value proposition.
