We here at Republic Voice & Data would like to say congratulations on the rebranding of Sugar-AI, or you may know them formerly as Sullivan Productions, home of “the Oxi-Clean guy” himself, Mr. Anthony Sullivan. They have been amazing partners for 25 of our 35 years in business!

When asked why the name Sugar.AI, president of the company, Noelle Ray Stoops Crovo, says “It was definitely the brainchild of Sully’s. We went through a lot of different name choices, you know because we wanted something different, something that stood out and as you see through our logo it’s actually indicative of things that we have future capabilities on and what we do now.” She also explained that the blue ‘ar’ in Sugar stands for Augmented Reality, which is a capability that they will continue to work on and where the ‘AI’ is very symbolic of the platforms that they utilize as well as where all their media lives. “The best part about Sugar in our name…” says Noelle, “is that it is super indicative of our culture and how we like to conduct business, which is fun and sweet.”

Just like the upgrading or rebranding of their name, Sugar.AI has also upgraded the use of theirs, as well as their other business, MontKush’s telecommunications system. With our assistance, they were able to switch over seamlessly from their older digital phones to our Hosted phone platform using our Republic Cloud Service.

Thank you again Sugar.AI for being such a valued customer and making these last 25 years so sweet!

Section 179 of the IRS Tax Code gives your business an immediate deduction of the full purchase price of qualifying vehicles and equipment purchased and used during the tax year. This allows a decrease in 2022 tax liability (rather than capitalizing an asset and depreciating it over time in future tax periods). Your business may deduct up to $1,050,000 in 2022 with purchase prices up to $2,620,000! Once the equipment purchased exceeds that number, the deduction reduces on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

Many companies pay for products and services that they no longer have.

Each of the two companies had bills ranging from $900-1200 per month.

Upon review, Republic was able to identify and provide substantial savings.  So much so the two clients were both able to afford a technology refresh.  A refresh providing them with new telecom, WIFI and video surveillance gear.  A big Win for our new clients!

If you still own a 10+ year old telephone system you too are more than likely a candidate for an equipment refresh, without spending one more penny.

There’s no charge to review your current internet/telephone bills, all you need to do is ask.

Are you ready for a refresh?

It’s This Easy:

1. Make sure your asset is eligible: Physical property that is purchased or leased, used more than 50% in your business, and not acquired from a related party.
2. Start using the asset: You must start using the asset in your business before the year’s end to qualify for the deduction.
3. Claim the deduction: You claim the Section 179 deduction on Part I of Form 4562 (the IRS Depreciation Form). You will have to include a description of the property, its cost, and the amount of Section 179 you’re claiming for that asset on Line 6. If you need more room, you can attach a list to Form 4562.

A religious-based center is being built in our area. The center will be comprised of a social hall, offices, sanctuary, and classrooms. Multiple functions will be held there. The center requires many technologies that our team will provide including low voltage cabling, VoIP phone solution, audio system, video surveillance, and access control systems.

Our Discovery process begins with:

• Learning about the organization.
• Identify building usage and specific details on activities occurring at the facility.
• Learning the financial and operational parameters to provide solutions with expandability.
• Engineering technologies to meet the needs of the business and their budget.
• Spending the necessary time to demo each of the technologies to ensure the customer was part of the selection process.

The tradition of our Discovery creates a very necessary bond between us (our clients and Republic), it is where our partnership begins.

A primary aspect business owners focus on while running their company is security. While many cyber-security services manage data security, what about the security and safety of the building and the company physically?

In the modern world, while cyber theft is common, it doesn’t mean that old ways of stealing are forgotten. Hence, it is essential to have a proper security system to have peace of mind.

How do you achieve it? Well, read on below.

The Best Way to Protect Your Company from Theft or Fraud

While data is protected through cyber security, the company can be protected through enhanced video surveillance methods. If you are someone who plans on establishing a business and starting a company, putting up a security camera should be your priority. Why so? Well, it has a lot of benefits, some of which are mentioned below.
