Taylor began his career with ADT Security Services where he delivered significant revenue growth in both residential and commercial markets. He moved on to achieve year-on-year growth and exceed sales targets in senior leadership roles with AMAG Technology, NetVersant Solutions and Brivo Systems. Most recently Mike was North American Sales Director for Milestone Systems where he led a Sales team of 30 to achieve over 25% revenue growth in 2017, moving Milestone to be the US number two video management solution provider.

“Mike is a dynamic leader who takes a hands-on approach and has a track record of driving and executing measurable results,” said Woodie Andrawos, President NMC. “He will be working closely with myself and Sharon Elder, Vice President, Sales NMC, to offer additional support in growing the dealer channel.”

Taylor is excited to lead the tactical efforts of the group.

“With Remote Video Monitoring experiencing exponential growth, the timing is right to unify sales development. I’m excited to be joining this forward-thinking group of innovators and help lead the pathway to even greater success,” Taylor said.
