Have you ever spent hours searching for something at work, like a missing master key? You ask everyone you work with if they know where it is, and each person tells you “So-and-so had it last.” Tracing back the long line of people who had previously used or borrowed equipment seems useless, takes hours, and it usually ends up being unprofitable. But what else can you do? People use things and fail to put them back. It’s just a fact of life. Right?
PT-200
Not anymore. Using new technology, you can easily locate the object or whatever equipment your company seems always to be misplacing. If you attach a little GPS tracker to an object, you will never lose it again. Not only does this protect from things getting lost, but you can ensure that they will not be stolen. Even if someone were to run off with your property, you could pinpoint their exact location with the GPS tracker. Many GPS tracking devices are about the size of a business pager which would be a little difficult to attach to a key ring, but some devices, like the PT-200 are actually small enough to place on small objects. Or, a passive tracker, such as the Tracking Key, can be placed on an object to find out where it has been after the fact. The Tracking Key looks like a small computer thumb drive that runs on AA or AAA batteries.
Lost or stolen property can be devastating and it can halt production at a factory or cause a business to lose a major contract. Businesses cannot compromise their security like this. If the lost or stolen property is never found, it will cost the company hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Attaching a GPS tracker to your property will save your company time and money. Countless hours are wasted when people search for things and sometimes they are never even found. Being able to instantly locate objects or equipment would allow companies to be more efficiently run and would give the owner peace of mind. A GPS tracker is the simple solution that will keep your property and your business secure.
This sounds awesome! I am always losing my keys and it makes me feel so stupid when they turn up in the most random of places. have really tiny GPS trackers that can be put on things. One even looks like an IPOD.
